So values in the field Weekday are stored as Mon, Tue , Wed?


Then you will have to use Pick (Match

Pick(Match(

FirstSortedValue(Weekday, -Aggr(Sum({<TrxType = {'R'},ActionID = {'RECEIPTS'}>}[Act-Storage]) ,Date,Weekday))

,'Mon','Tue','Wed','Thur','Fri','Sat','Sun')

,'Monday','Tuesday','Wednesday','Thursday','Friday','Saturday','Sunday')


or Add a new field that has the full names for Weekday!

I thought I could do it like this

WEEKDAY(

FirstSortedValue(Weekday, -Aggr(Sum({<TrxType = {'R'},ActionID = {'RECEIPTS'}>}[Act-Storage]) ,Date,Weekday))

,'dddd')


but Pick Match will do


Thanks

Well you can actually do that by changing the below variable

From

SET DayNames='Sun;Mon;Tue;Wed;Thu;Fri;Sat';

To


SET DayNames='Sunday;Monday;Tuesday;Wednesday;Thursday;Friday;Saturday';


and change the Weekday field to be a dual field example


dual(Weekday,Match(Weekday,'Sun','Mon','Tue','Wed','Thu','Fri','Sat')) as Weekday
