UK post code

I have a report that plots each of our sales persons location using a map.  This is plotted from there postcodes contained in the dataset.

 

How do I allow them to enter a postcode which will also display on the map?  I need them to be able to enter a postcode of a new account and then be able to see on the map, who the nearest sales person is.

 

 

Thanks

Darren

      amitchandak I don't understand what you mean.  Please provide more details.  I have sucessfully plotted postcodes on a map. How do I then allow a user to enter a new postcode to also display on the map?

       

      Thanks

    Hi darrenturner 

     

    Not quite understand " allow them to enter a postcode which will also display on the map", if they can modify the dataset, it will display as always.

      Hi v-diye-msft 

       

      I am producing the report in Power BI desktop.  I will then publish the report in the Power BI web client/app.  Our users of reports will only have access via the web client/app.  The report I publish will show a map with points plotted.  Is it possible to have a box on the published report when the user can enter a postcode, which will then plot against the current map?

       

      Thanks
