Remove last selection when opening dashboard in server

Wed, 14 Dec 2016 16:18:34 GMT

Hi all,

Please can you assist.

The aim is to remove the last selection from the dashboard (on the server) and only show the latest date.

When viewing dashboards in the server, the last saved is always selected. I have set extra conditions in the Sheet Properties.

See below to remove this. However it is not working.

Is there another solution?

Thanks,

Mary

Hi Mary,

Is Session Recovery enabled on the QVS? If so, try disabling it. In QMC, navigate to System > Setup > QlikView Servers > QVS@ > Documents tab.

The online Help for Session Recovery:

Allow Session Recovery

Session recovery saves the current selection state for each user when a session ends. It then re-applies the selection state the next time that the same user reconnects to the same document.

Note! Session recovery affects all users and documents on a server.

To allow session recovery, tick this check box. To disallow session recovery, untick this check box.

Thanks Chip for your prompt reply.

Do you know if there is another solution that I can update in QlikView itself? I dont have access to the server settings.

Hi Mary,

to gain access to QMC, your IT dept just need to add your user credentials to the Qlikview Adminstrators group on the server.

Hi Mary,

have you tried setting a trigger e.g. OnOpen, in document properties rather than Sheet?

Mary,

I'm fairly certain that as Session Recovery is a server-side, universal setting, it will override anything done on the document side.

Hi Andy,

Yep, I have. I have the following:

Actions = same as above. However, when I reopen the QlikView Dashboard it is still selected on the last saved. :-S
