Hi,
We are working with Qlikview 11.2 and we do not have Publisher.
We have a folder structure like this:
C:\PRD
COMMERCIAL
FINANCE
HUMAN RESOURCES
PRODUCTION
So inside the Commercial folder we have the Commercial extractors and dashboards. Inside the Finance folder the Finance extractors and dashboards and so on.
If we go to the QMC and we go to System\Setup\Qlikview Server\Folder\ and we configure Root folder as “C:\PRD” in access point we will see the dashboards but the extractors too 😞
If we put all the dashboards in other folder, for example C:\Published Dashboards and we configure Root folder as “C:\Published Dashboards” we are not able to access to the extractors in the QMC in order to create jobs for its 😞
How we have to organize it? What do you advise us?
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
No, in the way I described you only use the root folder for QlikView to store the PGO-files.
By placing the documents in separate folders you'll get a little more maintenance but also a well organized QV environment.
Cheers,

Hi,
As a root folder create a new folder in Windows Explorer, like C:\QV_ServerRoot. In the QMC mount this folder as your root. QlikView server stores the PGO-files in this folder.
The second step is to mount the folders where your QlikView documents resides. For this use the “mounted folders” part in the QMC. It’s a good idea to use separate folders for the data extractors and dashboards. The mounted folder for the dashboards should be browsable and the data extractor folders not.
In your case (example for the commercial apps) you get the following folders:
C:\PRD\COMMERCIAL\DATAEXTRACTOR
C:\PRD\COMMERCIAL\DASHBOARD
In the QMC the data extractor folder is mounted with the option browsable off and the dashboard folder is with the browsable option on.

Hi Michiel, thanks for your answer.
Sorry for my misunderstanding but we do not have to put any document inside the root folder (C:\QV_ServerRoot)?
