Steve Taylor Aug 8, 2016 6:47 AM (in response to Eleonor Hellblom)Hi Eleonor
If you go to your By City sheet, right click on the action filter Action MONTH(Order Date) and select - apply to worksheets > Selected worksheets then select the Filled map worksheet, that should solve the problem.
Let me know if that doesn't solve the issue.

John Sobczak Aug 8, 2016 7:19 AM (in response to Eleonor Hellblom)There may be a creative solution for this, but maybe a close alternative is to change your action to "leave as" when exiting and then pop your action filters to the dashboard to allow the user to change it back to all as I have in the attached.

Phillip Overpeck Aug 8, 2016 6:58 AM (in response to Eleonor Hellblom)Hi,
Try changing the action filter to leave the filter when you clear your selections:
This will allow the filter on the filled map to apply to the city map. The catch is that, if you want to go back to an all country filter, you will have to select all the country's on the filled map. There might be a cleaner way to achieve this, but the is probably the quickest.

Eleonor Hellblom Aug 8, 2016 7:06 AM (in response to John Sobczak)Hi John, thank you for the workbook. That does give the desired result but doesn't really look good to have the filters there. Do you know any way to create an action to have them all selected again? So create a separate sheet (like a button) with the function? Thanks!
