Totals for the week

[elie_abidaher]

I have a table in SQL containing payments, each payment is having a date. I will filter all the payments by year, then I want to get the totals for every week of that year?

the desired output should be a table with 2 columns

date_of_week         total_payments

Hi @mwegener 

Unfortunatly i didn't manage to get it to work.

the solutions provided will create a table with all the dates in a year, i just want the start and end date of every week in that year, or even just the start date of the week, then i can calculate my total payments for that week

Hi @elie_abidaher ,

create a simple date table.

https://www.sqlbi.com/articles/creating-a-simple-date-table-in-dax/

DATE =
VAR MINYEAR = YEAR ( MIN ( payments[date] ) )
VAR MAXYEAR = YEAR ( MAX ( payments[date] ) )
RETURN
ADDCOLUMNS (
    FILTER (
        CALENDARAUTO( ),
        AND ( YEAR ( [DATE] ) >= MINYEAR, YEAR ( [DATE] ) <= MAXYEAR )
    ),
    "CALENDAR YEAR", "CY " & YEAR ( [DATE] ),
    "MONTH NAME", FORMAT ( [DATE], "MMMM" ),
    "MONTH NUMBER", MONTH ( [DATE] ),
    "WEEKDAY", FORMAT ( [DATE], "DDDD" ),
    "WEEKDAY NUMBER", WEEKDAY( [DATE] ),
    "QUARTER", "Q" & TRUNC ( ( MONTH ( [DATE] ) - 1 ) / 3 ) + 1
)

For the total you can use the quick measure "Year-to-date total".

In case data is imported in power BI. You can use week start of end date in your date calendar to group data together

Week Start date = DATEADD('Date'[Date],-1*WEEKDAY('Date'[Date])+1,DAY)
Week End date = DATEADD('Date'[Date],7-1*WEEKDAY('Date'[Date]),DAY)

If you want to use day of week. You can have weekday column.

To get the best of the time intelligence function. Make sure you have a date calendar and it has been marked as the date in model view. Also, join it with the date column of your fact/s.
