Report on regions

The area report splits the entire map into subareas and generates a report page for each subarea. For example, you can automatically divide a map of Germany into maps of the 16 federal states or create a section map for each sales area.

Control

The controlling level determines the structure of the report. A separate map and, optionally, separate data tables are generated for each area of the controlling level selected for the report. A report can only use a map on the same sheet as the report as a reference. As controlling plane any surface plane from the selected map can be used.

You can select individual areas of the controlling level. Only for the selected areas a map section will be generated within the report. If you would like to create an overall view in addition to the individual map sections, check Include overall view.

Output Details

Here you can define details for the display of the maps in the report.

Link data with the report

It is possible to add one or more data tables to the report maps. If this is desired, first select the Table or query whose data are to be included in the report. Then choose Column, which contains the number of the areas of the controlling level of the report.

If you export the data to this report, the corresponding data records are filtered for each area of the controlling level. For example, you can create a table of customers for each sales area or a list of districts for each federal state.

Adapt analysis to an area report

In easymap there is a possibility to adapt an analysis to an area report. When creating an analysis, under Extend, you can activate the function Only the data visible in the island view.

This function can also be activated subsequently by opening the data bases of the analysis in the context menu of the analysis in the Contents control window.

First, we need to set the Uniform value classes under the properties of the area report to no.

..and link the data to the area report for analysis:

Allows right-click on the analysis in the Content control window and select the Ignore filter option.

With this option, only the data records in the area are displayed in island displays and reports, and the legend is adapted accordingly.

Tips for Territory Structures

The clip map section of territory reports based on territory structures created with easymap is always large enough to display also external territory locations. If the size of the clip map is too large for you, you can hide the layer of territory locations in the control window.
