Just do this?

//Section Access;

//LOAD * INLINE [

//    ACCESS, NTNAME, ORDERCUSTOMERNAME,StockCustomer

//    ADMIN, MyDomain\satish,

//    USER, MyDomain\KSTL, "MICHEL", "MICHEL"

// 

//];

//Section Application;

We can't access your qvw as its got section access on it.

The simplest way is just to add a second column on your section access script for the stockcustomer and populate it with the same data

Indeed, you can use several columns to reduce data, and if your stock and orders and in a separate table, that is the only way of doing it.

You can also create a fact table where you differentiate stocks from orders and then the section access would likely be simpler.

Maybe with SA column names in upper case (actually converted automatically in SA, but anyway) and their counterparts in Section Application too

Couple of notes after opening your file:

There can be only one single section access table. If you need, you can use several columns to reduce by, in your case "ORDERCUSTOMERNAME" and "StockCutomer Name".

The fields names and values must be uppercase in both the section access table and the data model table.

I still think that concatenating both tables into a bigger fact table would simplify further developments a lot.
