Map Visual doesn't display data consistently?

I have created a report that looks at Sales By Shipping Postal Code By Rep.

 

If I have the year and a month select (May) - but no reps selected (just default to all) - My map visual looks like this: 

 

WITH Month Filter

 

If I DESELECT the Month and want to see Sales for the whole year for all reps - the visual changes and looks like this:

ONLY Year Filter - all reps and all months

 

IT looks as if there are NO sales in the middle of the US or the West Coast when in actuall

  • Hi there,

    We had the same experience with plotting data on a map, when we filtered the data the map was ok and we saw the right values at the right place, but when we did not filter the data there were less data.

    the unfiltered set consists of 8000 items.

     

    It looks like there is a problem with showing larger data sets on the map visual.

    Can you post some sample data? How many tables are you using and how are they related?

     

    I created just a small test file and seems to work fine for me...

        heathernicole What date field do you use for the Slicers is in a Calendar table?

         

        There must also be a date for each sales line?
