Hello everyone! Glad to be here.
I'm having a few questions, hope someone could guide me.
In my mind this is not supposed to be hard, but somehow I find it tricky.
What I want is to create a measure or a column that can give me the same value on each row.
The value I need is the sum of every single sales mont of year 2021 (692,094.54) divided by the QTY of months (12).
Grand Total is 57,674.54.
But how do I create a column or measure that can give me this data for each single row?
Table is called "Hoja1", sales is in a column called "Ventas Total" and dates in a column called "Fecha Venta".
Thank you in advance.

@HectorMSC every time you are working with dates, you have to train your brain to use date dimension. I have a series of videos talking about time intelligence and the importance of date dimension, if interested, check it out here. youtube.com/playlist?list=PLiYSIjh4cEx2FkuGkngYruS0wm8MYFsoi

Hi,
This pattern should work
Total = sum(Data[Sales])
Total of all months = calculate([Total],all(Calendar[Month name]))
Average = divide([Total of all months],12)
Hope this helps.
Thanks for the assistance Ashish. I followed up every single step, but at the end it managed to keep the same number on each row but failed to sum correctly. However, this is the first time I try this approach of creating a Calendar Table and I find it interesting, so maybe I did something wrong but definitely going to try this approach again in the future.
@HectorMSC this measure will do it:
Total =
CALCULATE ( SUM ( Table[Column] ), ALLSELECTED ( ) )

Thank you, I used your formula and added a Filter for Year and it seems to be alright!
GrandTotalSales2021 =
CALCULATE (
SUM ( Hoja1[Ventas Total] ),
FILTER (
ALLSELECTED ( Hoja1 ),
YEAR ( Hoja1[Fecha Venta] ) = 2021
)
)
