Implementing Section access using QVD file data

I am new to qlikview and trying to implement section access using data loaded into qvd file which has NTNAME and OperatingUnitDesc . After loading QVD file, i am loading contents into Hiddenscript tab to enable security which is throwing error.

Script:

SECTION ACCESS;
LOAD
ACCESS,
NTNAME AS NTNAME,
OperatingUnitDesc AS OperatingUnitDesc
FROM
C:\QlikView Projects\UDM\Development\QVD Generators\QVD\SecurityTable.QVD (
qvd)
WHERE 1=1;
SECTION Application;
LOAD * INLINE [
OperatingUnitDesc
]
;

Error Message:

Field not found - <OperatingUnitDesc>

LOAD

ACCESS,

NTNAME AS NTNAME,

OperatingUnitDesc AS OperatingUnitDesc

FROM

C:\QlikView Projects\UDM\Development\QVD Generators\QVD\SecurityTable.QVD (qvd)

WHERE 1=

Please help in resolving the issue.

Thanks in advance

Try changing your field headers to UPPER case

Hi,

Check whether your QVD has OperatingUnitDesc column? and also you have to use Upper case for ACCESS and NTNAME.

SECTION ACCESS;
LOAD
Upper(ACCESS) AS ACCESS,
UPPER(NTNAME) AS NTNAME,
OperatingUnitDesc AS OperatingUnitDesc
FROM
C:\QlikView Projects\UDM\Development\QVD Generators\QVD\SecurityTable.QVD (
qvd)
WHERE 1=1;

Hi Jagan,

Quick question.

In section access can we keep lower cases like "OperatingUnitDesc" ?

That's not the recommended approach. Section access should have capitalized values always.

We need to maintain in Upper case.
