Hello,

You have a free licence : personal edition.

You can open to 4 other qlikview files. After, you need to have a qlikview dekstop licence or to borrow a licence from qlikview serveur.

For more information http://community.qlik.com/docs/DOC-1799

Hi Emily,

You can purchase Qlikview Desktop license, if you are the only developer who develop qlikview dashboard in your organization. The server license(CALs) is require if users(s) want to access the qlikview documents from a central location.

The point is, only user with qlikivew license(Desktop or Server) can open qv documents created by other users.

Regards,

Bharath

Document is for one doc, one user

Named is for all docs, one user

I think you need named as a developer to open every doc you want

So, if you have a qlikview server a named license, if you don't have a server a qlikview desktop license (the price should be the same as named for server).

Hi Emily,

You can't open the qlikview files (.qvw) using the personal addition unless they are enabled to open with personal edition of Qlikview.

Even if we create any dashboard (.qvw) using liscensed version there is no option to enable the document to be used with personal edition of Qlikview. Only way is get the exception from Qlitech t enable the above mentioned option.

Some of the training or demo .qvw files that are shared in community forums are personal edition enabled and is the reason we can open them.

Thanks-Venu

For a local desktop installation there are 2 options for licensing it:

1. Buy a local client license (valid til provided expiry date of license)

2. Lease a Named Client Access License (CAL) from the QlikView server (server connectivity needed)

Leasing a license goes quite easy:

  • in QlikView desktop navigate to File > Open in Server
  • provide the connection credentials
  • open a QlikView document

The license is valid for 28 days. After 28 days QlikView Desktop will degrade to Personal Edition again, so you need to contact the QlikView Server again to continue to work with QlikView Desktop with all document opening capabilities.

Other CALs related to the server (session, usage and document CALs) cannot be used for licensing QlikView Desktop.
