Get Days of the week from number 1 to 7

[driplytics]

My dataset has no date column, but contains Dayofweek  from Number 1 to 7.

I want to Create a Column that Returns Monday to Friday instead.

 I had to use IF then Function (like shown in the image below) to get this. But i Know there is a better and more efficient way to get this using a simple Dax formula.

Probably, takes the Number like 1 and Return Monday in a column. i would appreciate if i could get your suggestions

You can use SWITCH function

Hi @driplytics ,

As @tamerj1  mentioned before, you can use switch like this:

Weekday =
SWITCH (
    [DayOfWeek],
    1, "Monday",
    2, "Tuesday",
    3, "Wedensday",
    4, "Thursday",
    5, "Friday",
    6, "Saturday",
    7, "Sunday"
)

Output:

Also, you can create a new table like this:

Table =
SELECTCOLUMNS (
    CALENDAR ( TODAY (), TODAY () + 6 ),
    "Weekday", FORMAT ( [Date], "dddd" ),
    "DayOfWeek", WEEKDAY ( [Date], 2 )
)

Output:
