Hi,

the process of allocating is easy enough - but if I might add one word - DOCUMENT IT!

There are several dedicated QlikView_constructs available to tell you about CAL_association and other performance measures of all kinds - but some of these tools require access to the server - which rules them out for me - and then, every additional tool you have means additional resource_usage and an additional potential for trouble if it doesn't work at the time someone asks - so just make a matrix with your users and your qvw_files and flag which user has a Document_CAL for what - and which user has a Named_CAL.

Best regards,

Doc CAL -

  • user can access only one application
  • user can't lease license
