How to calculate week number

sgaryali

Hi

 

I want to get the week number for the week but week should start from Monday to Sunday.

 

For ex - Date = calendar week (EX 2021-11-03 = wk45) 

 

and then rest of the column will be totaled by employee ID  and week.

 

How can we do that?

Hi @sgaryali ,

 

To get the week number out of the date field, try the following expression:

 

DateTimeFormat([Date],"%W")

You can learn more about the datetime functions within Alteryx through the following link:

Hope that helps,

Hi @AngelosPachis 

 

Thank you for your reply.

But this not what I am looking at.

 

Basically I want week number for the whole week for ex - 01/11/2021 to 07/11/2021 - Wk 45 and week should always start from Monday and end at Sunday.

Then rest of the column calculation will be totaled by employee ID and week.

Hi @sgaryali ,

 

If you're looking for the ISO weeknumber, maybe you try following the solution of this post:

The links included in the following link can also be very useful

Hello,

 

We are currently building a workflow which gets the week number. But a week must be from Saturday to Friday. Any possible solution for this? Thanks.

 

 

 

PS. solved already: 

 

IF [Day] In ("Sat", "Sun")
THEN ToNumber([Week_Number_Default]) +1
ELSE [Week_Number_Default]
ENDIF

 

Feel free to comment if it's not working or wrong 😀
