When using the relative date filter suppose I select last 2 calendar week, assuming today is a Tuesday then it selects Last to last Sunday to Last Saturday.
Where as if I select last 2 week, then it selects Last to last Wednesday to today (Tuesday). How to make the filter select Last to last Sunday to today?
What you are describing can be achieved with a standard date slider. This isn't possible with a relative date filter.

I have date dimension table and sales fact table.
Created a chart visual with date week on x axis and values as sum of salesamt.
In the filter pane added relative filter to the date. In the last 4 calendar weeks.
I have a measure that shows LASTDATE(DateTable[Date]) also on the report.
The last date is showing as 6 Feb 2021 (Saturday)
Same value when I select the latest week on x axis.
However when I choose any prior week on x axis, then the last date value is Sunday 31 Jan 2021.
Why does the current week last date show as 6th Jan 2021 (saturday) instead of 7th Jan 2021 (sunday)?
Currently, calendar week is defined Sunday to Saturday when it comes to filtering using relative dates. You can work around it by introducing additional column (basically date - 1 day) and set your relative filter on that.
I am creating a report with buttons that use a slicer to show the last 3 calendar months, the default view, and YTD. The first two are all set and will continue to work fine, however i am having trouble with the YTD filter because i need it to exclude the current month (some of the key metrics for this slicer are only accurate monthly, even thought the data is updated Daily). Any idea how to accomplish this without me having to manually change it every month? An example of it working today would show me 2020 through August, since September is not complete. September would be included in the filter starting October first. I am thankful for your help/insights!
I typically build a calculated column on my date table called something like "Date in Range", that looks something like the below. You could also apply this to a date in a normal table if you are not using a date dimension.
Date in Range = IF ('MyTable'[Date] <
DATEADD(TODAY(), -1 * DAY(TODAY()), day),
1,
0)
This compares the date in the table row with TODAY(), e.g. 14 Sep 2020, minus the day of the month of today (14), effectively getting you back to the start of the current month. This will then return 1 for dates before the end of last month or 0. Filter on 1 or 0 to get your result (or use something more meaningful in place of the 1 or 0).
I would like to create a dashboard with month to date (MTD) and year to date (YTD) charts. However, I do not want to update my date range each month. A fixed date range would do this. Choosing 1 months ago give the last 30days. Using last month gives me last month and everything from this month. Yet, this month is not supported. MTD doesn't work either. I am using Superset version 0.24.0
I figured it out! Use 1st for MTD and Jan 1st for YTD.
For newer versions of Superset, this quarter is supported for quarter to date (QTD) charts.
I think it can be set on the custom tab of the time range in the chart explorer. There you can use 1st and Jan 1st as strings that are parsed.
TO get MTD put 1st in the 'Start' field and put this month in the 'end' field
Select Range Type as "Advanced", then enter "1st" for Start Date and leave End Date blank. Image has today's date as End Date but leave it blank to get YTD

I am using the formula below to check to see if January first is on Saturday. The calendar I've created will flip years using a macro in place, so January first may not always lay on a Saturday. The reason I need to use DAY is because the cell it is refering to is in a DAY format.
=IF(DAY(H5)=1,"Winter","") Formula
January 1st Days of the week
2018- Monday Calendar
2019- Tuesday
2023- Saturday etc...
So H5 is the place of the first Saturday in January,
if H5 = January 1st it should show "Winter" if not it should return blank. The issue is the formula is getting caught on the DAY(H5)=1. It returns #Value instead of a blank. Is there a work around I can use to show blanks instead?
I have conditional formatting in place so the cell is grayed out (Font colour and Fill). It looks good when it's in the spreadsheet but once it it is printed it will still show #VALUE.
Thanks in advance,
Wrap the formula in a IFERROR():
=IFERROR(IF(DAY(H5)=1,"Winter",""),"")
Or you can test to ensure the H5 has a value:
=IF(H5<>"",IF(DAY(H5)=1,"Winter",""),"")
I've a requirement where I need to compare a column date with current date. If my column date > last sunday's date I need to populate a status. Here, am facing issues in calculating present week's sunday date.
I need to calculate Previous Sunday's date in Informatica expression transformation.
I am not exactly sure about your requirement, however, you can always get the day and based on that subtract a fixed number of days to reach any sunday you want (present week or previous week). You should have a limited (7) set of IIF statements to achieve this.
Eg. If the day is 'Tuesday' (day of the current date) then subtract 2 from the date to get sunday date!
You can write an expression as- trunc(sysdate,'d') in a variable port which is having datatype as date.
The expression would return the Sunday date of the current date. Then you can compare the two dates (your column date and the variable port date) and populate the status.
If you just want to verify the result of the expression trunc(sysdate,'d') you can fire the following query in the oracle db:
"select trunc(sysdate,'d') from dual"
result returned would be the latest Sunday date.
