Counting two different expressions by week name

[eadbhard]

Hi there, I have a list of warehouse reference numbers, each with an arrival date and a departure date:

Although not evident in the table above, some shipments do not have a departure date.

Now I need to create a bar chart, counting how many arrivals and how many departures are processed each week of the year:

I have added two columns to the script that loads the shipments,

Load *,
WeekName(Arrival_Date) as Week_Arrival,
WeekName(Departure_Date) as Week_Departure,
Resident Shipments;

And I am using a master calendar script (autogenerated calendar) that has a Week_Name column.

Now for the bar chart, I know the dimension would be the Week_Name column from the calendar, but I don't know what the two expressions for the counting of arrivals and departures per week would be.

Thanks for any help,

Try below option

Assuming that there is no connection with master calendar generated.

Exp1: count( distinct {<Week_Name =p(Week_Arrival)>} shipmentID)

Exp2: count( distinct {<Week_Name =p(Week_Departure)>} shipmentID)

Else you need to create one ConicalDate and common calendar for these two dates , check below link

Thanks. When there is a link between the calendar and the shipments table, I get same counting of arrivals and departures in the same week:

Now, when there isn't a link between the calendar and the shipments, I get the same counting of departures and arrivals for all weeks:

I'll try the canonical date approach and will update.

Thanks!
