So I have a data base that has:
1. Months
2. Sales This year
3. Sales Last Year
4. % of variation calculated like this: (Sales This Year/Sales Last Year -1)

My problem is that when I use a Pivot Table and put months in filter as All Selected, the variation is incorrect.

If I configure the pivot table for it to show % of variation as an average it also dosent match my 12%.

Excel Facts

Can you sort left to right?
To sort left-to-right, use the Sort dialog box. Click Options. Choose "Sort left to right"
This might explain what's the issue (normal pivot used).

But you refer to all selected. So, are you using Power Pivot or the data model? -> Share you measure, so we at least understand how you wrote the DAX formula.
PS: You do not need the calculation in the source data.
