Query - NPrinting On Demand Printing - QlikView Desktop

[Neil_B]

Hi

Hopefully this is a straight forward question. I'm just learning the ropes with QlikView (ver. 11) and NPrinting (ver.16). We created a QlikView test document with NPrinting On Demand Printing functionality, and it is available via our access point, the On Demand printing functionality works correctly with no issues via this access point through Internet Explorer. In theory should I be able to load that document in the QlikView Desktop, turn on Webview and use the On Demand Functionality as I did before (or least I thought I had) ? providing all permissions etc. are in place. Someone helped with the creation and the setting up of the document, but that was awhile ago, and is now not available. Recently I have turned my attention back to it, I'm convinced you can run QlikView document in the QlikView desk top and use the On Demand Printing functionality. I have been told since that this is not possible, but that leaves me thinking how would you develop, save and test a QlikView document with any On Demand Printing functionality on it ?

On-Demand reporting requires QlikView server.

Install On-Demand Add-on ‒ Qlik NPrinting

Sorry maybe I didn't make it clear in my post, but we do have a fully formed functionally QlikView environment, including QlikView Server, QlikView Publisher and NPrinting Server, On-Demand extensions/objects and Ajax installed, and an Access Point with existing reports.

Simply my question is, can a QlikView document with On-Demand Printing embedded onto it be used via QlikView Desktop to produce On-Demand Reports, as it would via the Access Point thorough Internet Explorer.

Hi Neil,

Given that you have NPrinting server, the simple answer is "Yes". However, your NPrinting license must not expressly exclude the On-demand feature. You can check in your NPrinting Server application by selecting Resources, then clicking the Activation button and looking at the Features section. You will of course need to install the On-demand components on your client machine and turn on WebView in QlikView Desktop.
