Cheat Sheet — Any Weekday’s Week Start Date— Just one variable apart

Objective — To have a calendar that has a week start date that can start on any weekday

Solution: The solution should use a weekday as a variable and should create a calendar that can have a start date on a given weekday.

I have previously given a solution — here. Now I came up with a new code using just one variable. Check week start date and weekend date.

_weekday is variable, where one needs to provide values from 1 to 7

Code

Date = 
var _weekday =7 //Sunday- 1, Monday -2 , Tuesday -3, Wednesday -4, Thursday -5, Friday -6, Saturday -7
var _left = 7-_weekday 
var _tab = ADDCOLUMNS(CALENDAR(date(2018,1,1),Date(2022,12,31)),”Month Year”,format([Date],”MMM-YYYY”),
“Weekday” , WEEKDAY([date]),
“Week Start Date Sunday” , [Date] + -1*WEEKDAY([Date])+1,
“Week End Date Sunday” , [Date] + -1*WEEKDAY([Date])+7,
“Week Start Date” , [Date] + -1*if(WEEKDAY([Date])<_weekday,WEEKDAY([Date],1)+ _left,WEEKDAY([Date],1)-1* _weekday),
“Week End Date” , ([Date] + -1*if(WEEKDAY([Date])<_weekday,WEEKDAY([Date],1)+ _left,WEEKDAY([Date],1)-1* _weekday))+6
)
return _tab
