workflow authorization

Hello everyone,

I need to include in my document, a level of certification and validation of the data by some users, then when the document has been validated the official document must be visible to other users.
QlikView exists in a workflow authorization?

I was thinking of using section access or shared objects.

Thanks to all

Andrea

You could try it with direct discovery as variable-value to control the visibility from these sheets/objects. If this don't work you will probably need a reload which read the validation-state from a file/db/variable.

Hi,

If You are not having too much objects,

have an idea, is that create a button for each Object,

button will be conditionally show,. and objects too, only the person who will approve the data, will see the button and others objects, can check user by using osuser() or qvuser().

when the person will click on approve button then at background set a variable to some value,

and use that variable to other objects conditional show..

once the button is clicked , you can hide that botton, with another condition.

but for each object should have one button and one variable..

tricky work around, but can be done...
