ISO Week in Power Query / M language and Power BI

This is a very short post, just to make a reminder and possibly expand knowledge for me and my readers.

Sometimes, specially when working with calendar tables, we need to calculate ISO Week Number for certain date. There is no native functions in Power Query / M language / Power BI to get ISO Week number, so to obtain the desired result you need to write your own function.

Thanks to Catherine Monier, Microsoft Excel MVP, for providing the link to the “Date to ISO Week” M function already written for us. There also another function for converting ISO Week date (format input like: `2017-W02-7`) to the normal date:

This function is not so hard to develop, I think, but it is always better when somebody gives you ready-to-use solution, isn’t it? 🙂
