Hi Monica,

You can use the option "Apply to Selected worksheets" on a filter.

Please find the attached screenshot.

Also go through the below link :

Hope this helps!!!

Thanks,
Sarath

Hi monika,
In Tableau 8.0 you can apply the filter for only selected worksheets which was mentioned above by sarath.

But if you are using tableau 7.0 you can duplicate the data source connection and create the sheet which you dont want to be global and create dashboard.

Thanks,
Krish

Hi Monika,

In Tableau 7.0, if you can use Actions than it will also useful for that.
