Prevent geo data type fields in data model

In data load editor, I have a field that contains values such as CAN, USA, MEX, etc. When I load the data, Qlik automatically converts the field type to 'Geo data'. This causes the reload to take much longer. I have to go into Data manager, open the table and change the field type to general to fix the problem. If I make changes to the script, Qlik changes the field type back to 'Geo data'. How can I prevent this from happening? I don't want any Geo data fields in my data model.

@DGO  Why don't you just comment the fields which you don't need from script?

@Kushal_Chawda I need the field in the app. I want to prevent Qlik from automatically converting the field to geo data type.
