We have regional data within the U.S. it's mostly a state-wide grouping but some counties don't play by that rule and secondly the regions extend beyond the U.S. borders.
For example: North-West includes Washington state and parts of British Columbia; Puerto Rico and Virgin Island form the Caribbean sales region; Parts of NJ belong to Eastern while other parts of NJ fall into Mid-Atlantic I did create districts using ZIP codes but I face three issues now: 1. I need to add some ZIP codes that were left out (and are essentially blank). I somehow cannot get to do what is being described in the online tutorial<http://www.caliper.com/Video/Maptitude/Video-Territories.htm>(where they use the tools and then click on a state to add it to a district). 2. I also need to add non-U.S. areas (such as adding BC to the North-West region, or creating a Caribbean sales region), but considering I fail with the first issue above, it’s no wonder, I haven’t figured out how to do this thing. 3. Is there a way to “move” some of the regions on the map, for example move HI closer to the West Coast, or is Photoshop the only way to get that done? * * Matthias *Matthias Kretschmer* | Senior Consultant *The Taylor Research & Consulting Group, Inc.* Phone: 603-422-7618 Fax: 603-422-7610 [email protected] www.thetaylorgroup.com
