Month-by-Month calculated column

Hi Guys, I created a calculated column which calculates the SoM, its formulae is:

SoM = Sheet1[Mio Sales]/ SUM(Sheet1[Mio Sales])

 

The thing is, I need the SoM to be calculated on a month-by-month basis, however, what is happening is that it’s calculating the sales over the total sum of all months not per month. (Even though I have a column for months and put a slicer)

 

For example: In Jan: Company X has 20 sales from 50 total sales.

In Feb: Company X has 50 sales from 80 total sales.

 

SoM for Jan is supposed to be 20/50, however, in my case it is being 20/130.

 

Is there a way to apply a monthly filter on the equation?

 

Please advise on what to do.

 

Thank you!

Best,

Mays

    Since you didn't provide the sample data,hope this is helpful.

     

    % = 'Table'[sales]/CALCULATE(SUM('Table'[sales]),FILTER('Table','Table'[month]=EARLIER('Table'[month])))

    Anonymous  , Base on the  usages

    SoM = divide(calculate(sum(Sheet1[Mio Sales]),filter(Sheet1,Sheet1[company]="X")), SUM(Sheet1[Mio Sales]))

    or

    SoM = divide(SUM(Sheet1[Mio Sales]),calculate(sum(Sheet1[Mio Sales]),all(Sheet1)))
