Creating two tables and balloons in a single creo drawing

I created an assembly in the creo and converted to drawing. I wanted to create drawing of one of its subassemblies, so I did that in another sheet of the same drawing. I created the table using the repeat region for both the assembly and subassembly which are correct according to the parts present. But I am no longer able to create the automatic balloons. Is there some setting that has to be changed?

You can have as many tables on a drawing as you like. You can NOT show balloons from a table on a view that isn't using the model referenced in that table.

In other words, you can have a table referencing a sub-assy of the assy you are showing, but you can't show the balloon on the top level assy view. You would need to have a view showing just the sub-assy you are referencing in the table.

I'm not sure that will make sense and I am also not sure I am understanding your specific problem.
