how to restrict a field value different in different tables using section access

how to restrict a field value different in different tables

Requirement is if I have 2 different fact tables example Sales and Orders which have same key as ProductId(Pro1 to Pro10), and If I have to restrict

Products 1 to 3 for Sales and no restriction on Orders how can i achieve it, if i use section access on ProductId it's restricting data from both Sales and Orders. I want restriction on Sales alone.

create in eachte fact table a field

s.th. like e.g. in sales fact table

'Sales' as SourceType

and in order

'order' as SourceType

then you can restrict on this field

That's not possible if you want the two tables associated on the field ProductId. If you restrict a field on some values that will cascade to all tables that are associated. You can of course rename ProductId in the Orders table. But that will have a negative influence on your data model and the performance of your document.
