Visualizations with two tables

Hi, this question is probably simple, but I can't seem to find any answers to it online.

I'm doing visualizations on a Data Warehouse that contains fact tables.

Each fact table consists of 3 dimensions (IDs that are connected to their respective tables) and 2 measures.

To make it simple I'll give an example:

I have a fact table about deliveries. Each delivery has a few dimensions, one is "Zone" (Europe, Asia, Africa, America, etc.).

What this means is that for each delivery there a field that contains id_zone that links to a zones table containing all info about the zones.

The visualization I want to do is very simple: I want to create a treemap chart of all the different zones and how many deliveries were made to each of them.

This is very simple to do. I just put id_zone as a Dimension, and count(id_zone) as a Measure. But the resulting chart shows the IDs of the zones as the labels, not their actual names. The actual names are contained in the zones table. 

I want to somehow replaces the ID with their corresponding names, but I can't seem to do it.

 

I've provided screenshots of both tables to make it more understandable. Thanks!

Load the Zones tables into Qlik as well.  Use "name" as your dimension.  Your measure should then be Count(id_delivery) as you don't want to be counting a key field.
