Direct Query and Geographic Fields

Hi,

 

I've just set up a Direct Query to an on-prem SQL Server database, I want to make a post code field a Geographic item, is it possible to do this?

 

With Import I did it on the Data tab but this doesn't exist for Direct Query.....

 

Thanks

 

Mark

Ignore me, found it!!

 

In the field list on the report tab, click on the field, then the modelling tab appears next to the home tab at the top.
