You can achieve by using alternate state in qlikview.

Try to search on alternate state...

This is the association property of the qlikview when you select any entity in and field the association based on the entity will reflect on all the related fields. If you want to avoid this you can use SET analysis for this like

In any chart  Sum({<Year=, Month=>} Value)

And in another chart where you want reflection then use only

  Sum(Value)

You need to use alternate states. With alternate states you can have different selections between tabs or even between objects in the same tab.

You can set Alternate State in the full sheet. See Property of Sheet -> Alternate State

I understand where you are coming from and also understand Anand's point about the association property of QlikView.

The only real way that I can think of (and it is a bit messy) is to use a button to select each of your dimensions. The action of the button would be to clear all selections, make all listbars except required invisible, and then the user can select that particular listbar.

Although it is messy, it means that all listbars can use the same space on the screen and so would minimise the space requirement for menu etc.

This is one of the fundamental properties of QlikView - there is only one data set behind the whole application.

If you make a selection on any sheet, that selection still applies when users change sheets until the selection is changed or cleared.

It is better to train your users to understand how the data selections in QlikView work across the whole application, rather than creating a non-standard workaround.

Hi Uday

Colin Is Right.

There is a way, you can do it by using Triggers - "Clear All"

or for each sheet, keep the Data Model separate. Don't Link the Data.

It will work for you.
