Dynamic doc cal assignment

[#1]

Can I use dynamic doc cal assignment when I have set the user groups via authorisation on a document?

[Peter_Cammaert]

Dynamic Document CAL assignment can be used at all times, but the CALs will be assigned to the Windows User IDs, not to Groups.

The Users that get a Doc CAL dynamically assigned will appear with their Users ID in the list on the Doc CAL tab in QMC.

Thanks for the quick reply Peter.

What I am trying to get to is on Access Point I only want users to see their dashboard so that they don't use up doc cals when opening other dashboards. I would like to use dynamic across all our dashboards?

There are no floating licenses in QlikView country.

If a user opens a QlikView document in the AccessPoint, he/she will consume one CAL and that license will stay assigned to that user and that particular document (for at least 24 hrs)

[Edit] I guess I missed your point entirely

Sorry, I finally got what you are up to. You want to avoid the dynamic CAL assignment mechanism to waste CALs on people that have no business in those documents.

For that you'll have to block the display of documents in the AccessPoint. You can do that by either revoking file rights or by using Section Access to restrict access permissions. A user that has no right to open a QlikView document because of Section Access restrictions won't get a CAL either.

Or if you have a Full Publisher, you can block the publication of documents to particular users, so that they will not get access to those documents. Works just the same: no access = no dynamic CAL assignment and no wasted CALs

Best,

Peter
