unfortunately the responses have not resolved the issue. I don't think it is possible to filter across mutliple pages in this way

    Hi Back2Basics ,

    Thanks for confirming.

    This is expected behavior in Power BI. Selections made directly in visuals such as clicking bars or data points are page scoped and do not persist when navigating to another page. With page navigation, only slicers and page or report level filters are carried over, which is why the details page is filtered by slicers only.

     

    Drill through has a similar limitation. It supports context from a single visual and is disabled once multiple visuals are selected.

    Because of these design limitations, filtering a details page based on multiple chart selections from another page is not supported today. To achieve similar behavior, the detailed table would need to stay on the same page, or the filtering would need to be driven entirely through slicers.
