Island data table help using within chart.

Hello,
First time using Island data table. 
I have a master calendar with a 'Week' field (contains the week number)

My Summary table also has a 'Week' field (WeekLIVE) 

I created a Pivot table chart with the Dimension of 'Week' (from the master calendar) 

I want to show the sum of head per week

My expression is "sum( IF ( Week = WeekLIVE , WEEKLYHEAD ) )" 

Island table.png

as you can see from the data the sum for the week of the 27 should be 9029

63203 / 7 is 9029. but i don't want to have to add '/ 7' to my expression.

Because I'm working with weeks, and my calendar has days. do i need to do something different.???

If i select a single day in the week  i get the correct answer, but i shouldn't have to.

Thanks,

I Think i have worked it out. 

i used sum( IF( DateKey = WeeklyDate1, WEEKLYHEAD) ) 

as i have dates in both tables and the calendar should have all dates, i can still use the Week as the dimension.

So far this is working.

 

Thanks

Try this:

sum({<WeekLIVE={$(=max(Week))}>} WEEKLYHEAD)

{$(=max(Week))} will evaluate to 52 (as 52 is the max value in the field Week) unless i select a week to look at. which then it will work, but i need to see all weeks in the same table

Your calendar is not linked with your summary table. Please find attached qvw file with modified script. Let me know if this is what you are looking for.
