Disable drillthroughpages for specific visuals

HI,

 

I'm working on a financial dashboard wich displays de balance of accounts receivable and payable. This amount is displayed in a line graph by Year and Month.

 

Now I like to make a drillthrough 'by relation'. Therefore i maked this page to show a the balance by relation. 

 

I have two relation tables: Debtors and Creditors, so i have to Drillthrough pages: by debtor and by creditor. When i use drillthroug i can choose for both pages. The visual about balance of creditors has a drilthrough option 'by debtor'. And the visual about debtors has a drillthrough option 'by creditor'.

 

For a user, this is confusing. Is there a way to solve this? Maybe by disabling a specific drillthroug option on one of the visuals? Other solutions?

Could you clarify more details about "drillthrough by relation" and share some sample data?

The total balance of e.g. creditors is a sum of balances from different creditors. In my overviewpage I present the total balance of al creditors as a running total over a year.

From that visual i like to drillthrough to a detailpage where some detailed information is shown. Like the balances of al creditors at that specific moment in year.

 

I got two tables with relations, one with creditors (suppliers) - one with debtors (customers), so i need to create two detailpages. Cause they are both have drillthroughfilters 'Year' and 'Period', both appear when i click on 'drillthrough'. But, when i'm click in the visual with the total balance of creditors - drillthrough to the detailpage of debtors makes no sense. But, in PBI the option is just there... This is confusing for endusers..

 

Possible solutions i thinked about:

1. combine the two relationtables (but they don't share a column - so how to merge/combine)

2. disable drillthrough for specific pages (is this possible?)

 

Any other solution?
