It is one of two ways of leasing a desktop installation of qlikview.
If you do not have a 'local client license' , you can license the desktop by leasing a named user CAL from a server installation that includes Named User Cals.
The 'allow license lease' option must be enabled on the server. When this is turned on a developer can then connect to the server and lease a license. One way is to have them open a server app using the 'open in server' menu option from the desktop. In this scenario, you'll have to already allocate that user a Named User cal, or turn on 'allow dynamic call assignment'. The act of opening a server app from the desktop auto licenses the desktop with a 30 day lease. The lease must be renewed by the developer after 30 days. The server should recognize the developer as 1 user even if the access apps through the web / access point or through the desktop so no need to 2x license developers.
