Week Day Number


I am trying to load date data where my field 'createdate' will display "Year/Wk" (Example: April 15, 2014 would display '2014/16", the year and the week number).

In my script I have:

Date(WeekStart([createdate]), 'YYYY/WW') as [Yr/Week Opened]

However the date is displaying as "2014/00" on all records. How do I get the week number to display?

Thanks.

Jeff

The format codes 'WW' is for weekday (so 00 since you are calling for weekstart)

  • "WW" will return the number with two digits (e.g. 02 for Wednesday).

Use

     year([createdate]) & '/' & week([createdate]) as [Yr/Week Opened]

its_anandrjs

you have to write two script and concat them try like

= Year(today())&'/'& Week(Today())

its_anandrjs

For this script

Date(WeekStart([createdate]), 'YYYY/WW') as [Yr/Week Opened]


here 'YYYY/WW' is not working because it is a date format but you use 'WW' as week so for your script try like


Year( [createdate], 'YYYY') &' / '& Week ([createdate])   as [Yr/Week Opened]


or   


Year( [createdate] ) &' / '& Week ([createdate])   as [Yr/Week Opened]

Thanks swuehl.

Is ther any way to force the week number to display two digits? Like 01, 02, 03....?

It helps with the sort otherwise I get 1, 10, 11...2, 21, 22, 23...3, 31...etc.

Thanks.

Use the num() function to format with two digits

num(week(Datefield),'00')

its_anandrjs

For week no with '00' use it like

Year( [createdate] ) &' / '&  Num( Week ([createdate]) ,'00')  as [Yr/Week Opened]
