there are different type of CAL

one of this, document cal can be used to give a user (one user) a license to see a document (one document); this is managed in the QMC

but to see the doc the user also needs the authorization for that doc; for authorization Qlik uses Windows or DMS

In DMS auth Qlik manages the auth

In Windows auth you have to set the permission on file (Qlik doc) or folder
