Narrative:
Nearing las we anticipated and briefed an ILS/visual approach. Upon contacting las TRACON we were told to expect a visual approach to runway 25L. As we neared the airport; we saw runway 19L. When we told TRACON that the runway was in sight; they cleared us for the RNAV visual 19R. We selected the RNAV for the runway in the FMC but could not find an RNAV visual approach on the ipad. We were rapidly approaching the airport when TRACON asked us why we were not going to the trrop fix. We told TRACON that the fix was not on our approach chart. They indicated that this was a common problem; cleared us for a visual approach which ended with an uneventful landing.
