Using the Map Report

After you send a mailing, you can view the Map Report to see a breakdown of results according to state or province. For example, If you send a mailing where three members live in New York. When you open the Map Report, it looks like this:

As you can see, the 1 graphic points to New York State. To see cumulative statistics on all mail sent to that state, move the pointer over the 1 graphic. A popup appears and displays the statistics:

In order for the Map Report to work, each member must have the following two demographics:

Country_
State_Province_

Note

Aurea List Manager only supports a 3-character country code and 2-character state/province.

Also names must be exact.For example, you already have a Country demographic but it does not end with an underscore, the Map Report is not going to work.

To add the necessary demographics to the members_ table

  1. In the left Navigation bar, go to Utilities > Administration > Server > Database > Add/Remove Member Columns > Add Column Wizard
  2. In the Description column under the Location sub-section, select Country and choose the three-character string char(3), for the datatype and State/Province and choose the two character string char(2), for the datatype.
  3. Click OK.

To view the Map Report for a mailing

In the left Navigation bar, click Home.

Under Mailing Name, click the mailing you want.
