Title: Cognos Map Visualization - Cognos 11.1
Post by: fry on 22 Jan 2020 10:16:24 AM
Hello

Using 11.1 Map visualization. I can successfully use the map, using Regions ---> Province Name and Latitude and Longitude.
In the points drop down, I am unable to use FSA (first 3 digits) or Postal Code (canadian postal codes) as a source without receiving error "None of the locations could be resolved"

Regards

Hi,

Did you also bring in the Country so that the mapping engine knows you are using Canadian data? I think CA currently only supports the first three digits (Forward Sortation Area) for Canadian postcodes, but you'll need to bring in the Country too.

Cheers!
