    Let \(X\) be a linear space over the field \(\mathbb{K} \in \{\mathbb{R}, \mathbb{C}\}\), \((G,+)\) be an abelian group, let \(K\) be a finite abelian subgroup of the automorphism group of \(G\) and let \(L:= card K\). All solutions \(f, g, h: G \to X\) and \(\varphi: G \to \mathbb{K}\) of the functional equation \[ \sum_{\lambda \in K} f(x + \lambda y) = L\varphi(y) g(x) + L h(y), \;x,y \in G, \] are found. Earlier, some particular cases of this equation were studied by \textit{W. Förg-Rob} and \textit{J. Schwaiger} [Grazer Math. Ber. 316, 219--226 (1992; Zbl 0786.39004)], \textit{Z. Gajda} [Grazer Math. Ber. 316, 234--237 (1992; Zbl 0786.39006)], \textit{H. Stetkaer} [Aequationes Math. 51, No. 3, 294--302 (1996; Zbl 0858.39012); ibid. 53, No. 1--2, 91--107 (1997; Zbl 0869.39007); ibid. 55, No. 3, 227--240 (1998; Zbl 0940.39020); ibid. 56, No. 1--2, 47--62 (1998; Zbl 0913.39015)] and \textit{R. Badora} [Georgian Math. J. 12, No. 4, 595--606 (2005; Zbl 1098.39017)].
