Hi and thanks in advance for your help
I'm a beginner user.
I made a spreadsheet with Sales by Puerto Rico Municipalities.
When I use map visualization it does not show up correctly.
How I can solve this.

Hi @enieves ,
Can you show more details?
What are the columns and data type in the table?
Which filed each column is placed?
Best Regards,
Jay
Hi @enieves ,
You will need to change the data type.
Select the Column and then change the Data Category under the Modeling menu to respective field
See if these docs help.
