Please try

Planned Sales Daily =
DIVIDE (
    [Planned Sales],
    COUNTROWS (
        CALCULATETABLE (
            VALUES ( 'Calendar'[Date] ),
            REMOVEFILTERS (),
            VALUES ( 'Calendar'[Year] ),
            VALUES ( 'Calendar'[Month] )
        )
    )
)

Hi @Anonymous 

why did you divide the march planned amount over 46.5 days? 331,962/46.5 = 7,139?

This is a relationship cardinality issue.
You need to create the relationship between 'Date' and 'Planned' at month level not at day level. You can create a YearMonth column like FORMAT ( Planned[Date], "YYYYMM" ) in the Planned table and FORMAT ( 'Date'[Date], "YYYYMM" ) in the 'Date" table and connect both columns together Many-Many single direction.
