Use embedded SQL! ... but you first need to convert your numeric date into a real date and then use the WEEK_ISO (week according the ISO guide lines, i.e. week starts with Monday and the majority of the days in week 1 is from the new year) or WEEK (January first is always in the first week of a year).

Determining the week according the ISO guidelines with SQL from a 9 digit numeric date
Week_ISO(Right(Digits(YourNumDate) concat '000000', 14))

When Using the VarChar_Format Function you can even determine the year:
The following expression will return the Year/Week. If December 29 is in the first week of the next year, you'll get NextYear/01.
VarChar_Format(Timestamp(Right(Digits(YourNumDate) concat '000000', 14)), 'IYYY/IW')

In this way it is possible to group and sort your dates.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards
