Concatenating cells from a different sheet matching certain constrain

Hi,
I'd need to add a list of the latest projects to a dashboard,
the list could be some columns like CUSTOMER + COUNTRY + CITY and the constrain its in another cell called WEEK, at the same time adding (=WEEKNUMBER([Received Date]@row))
what i expect is something like:
customer1 france paris 15
customer2 spain madrid 15
customer3 belgium antwerpen 15
Thanks!

Hi @AlbertoCL ,
Have you considered adding a helper column to your source sheet, then creating a report? Your helper column (which could be hidden) could have a column formula that creates that concatenated string:
=Customer@row + " " + Country@row + " " + City@row + " " + WEEKNUMBER(Date@row)
Then you could create a report that only contains the helper column, and share that report on the dash. If you want to filter the report to show only certain customers, or only a specific date range, it would be easy to add the filter to the report.
Hope this helps!
Best,
Heather

I finally created a report and then added it to the dashboard but for filtering (the only thing left:-)) i cant find filtering by LATEST or highest number as i dont want to need to update the filter number (i.e filter by week 15) and i'd rather not populate it myself,
Thanks!
