WEEK
The WEEK function returns an integer between 1 and 54 that represents the week of the year. The week starts with Sunday, and January 1 is always in the first week.
- expression
- An expression that returns a value of one of the following built-in
data types: a date, a timestamp, a character string, or a graphic
string.
If expression is a character or graphic string, its value must be a valid string representation of a date or timestamp. For the valid formats of string representations of dates and timestamps, see String representations of datetime values.
The result of the function is a large integer. If the argument can be null, the result can be null; if the argument is null, the result is the null value.

to the week that project (‘PL2100') ended.
Results in WEEK being set to 38.SELECT WEEK(PRENDATE) INTO :WEEK FROM PROJECT WHERE PROJNO = 'PL2100'
