Hi Ali,
Tableau Desktop prevents dashboard filters from affecting the underlying sheets by default. However there is a workaround from the Tableau Knowledge Base that may prove helpful in accomplishing your goal. Take a look at this article:
Dashboard Filter Action does not Filter Source Sheet | Tableau Software
Hope that helps!

2. Re: Problem with using dynamic map as a filter on dashboard
Hi Ali,
There was a problem with your map viz, I believe this has something to do with your LOD (state/county). To get this working properly for each LOD you could replace your parameter to do a sheet swap for each sheet involved, and the filters will then work.
HTH 10.4 attached with Sheet 6 showing working filter.

3. Re: Problem with using dynamic map as a filter on dashboard
Thank you for helping Jack and Peter!
I actually managed to figure something out before seeing your answers. The problem seemed to be that in the CASE statement in the calculations, I was setting the fields to NULL in the ELSE statements. After removing the ELSE statements I was able to filter the other sheets based on the map.
Thanks,
Ali
