Problem with Map function

Hi

 

I have a dashboard built that uses the map visualisation to pinpoint locations using a postcode and ISO 3 digitcountry code concatenated in the following format (#####, ###).

This worked fine and mapped everything well up until the June software update. Now it will only map locations if the ISO code doesn't exist in the data field. Without the ISO code, it attempts to map, but the location isn't always correct.

 

Has anyone else experienced this issue? I don't particulary want to wind the software version back to May as I would lose some of the other updates that are being used.

I've checked the column format is POSTAL CODE and I've tried moving the three digit ISO code around in the filed to the beginning, end and so forth but nothing is working.

@Anonymous,

Please use the latest version of Power BI Desktop(2.48.4792.721 July 2017) to create the map visual. If the issue still occurs, please help to share sample data of your tables for us to check.

Regards,
Lydia
