Measure power bi

Hello,

 

I want to create a measure that divide the sales of a category by the total sales of the same month to represent later the % of sales for each category and month in a chart, but I'm unable to find one measure that works properly.  I have attached an image with the desired output in Excel. 

 

Thank youSin título.png

% measure: =
VAR _value =
    SUM ( data[value] )
VAR _allcategory =
    CALCULATE ( SUM ( data[value] ), ALL ( category[category] ) )
RETURN
    DIVIDE ( _value, _allcategory )
