Access control on a report

Sun, 31 Aug 2014 03:04:20 GMT

Hi all,

I want to know how to control an user have access to a (or some) certain report.

For example, I have two QVWs: test1.qvw and test2.qvw.

test1.qvw includes reports a, b

test2.qvw includes reports e, f

For user1 only have access to report a, e, and report b, f can't be visible to user1;

user2 only have access to report b, and he can't see others reports. ......

Hope you understand.

Can anyone know how to achieve this in QV?

Thanks too much.

Best regards,

Keep Going

Assuming report means a Grid/Chart in UI.

Method 1:

"Section Access"..Just search in community. you will get nice examples..

Method2:

If you have only small set of users...say two or three..

There is a function called "OSUSER()" using this you can get the logged in user details.

so you can play with conditional layout using below statement.

=if(wildmatch(OSUser(),'user1','user2'),1,0)=1

Hi,

If it is QlikView report not objects or charts.

Then you cannot hide it the way you are looking for.
