Does "Qlikview System ID" need a Named CAL?

[m_woolf]

I'm looking at our Named CAL assignments and I see "Qlikview System ID" is assigned a Named CAL.

Is this required, or can I assign to an actual user?

Does it literally say "QlikView System ID"?

Named User CALs are meant to be assigned to specific users/user accounts that need to open QlikView documents through either the AccessPoint (AJAX, Plugin, Mobile), or Desktop Client (Open in Server) who are not expected to use a different type of CAL (such as a Session CAL, Document CAL, Usage CAL).  They are usually considered more regular users, getting access to more documents and being most active. They can also lease a license, which they can't with any other CALs.

This includes the service account (account running the services) if that account is used by someone to open lots of documents frequently. For example for testing on the server itself. 

"QlikView System ID" might be a user that was created in your system with this particular name?
