Hi,
Back in 8.x and 9, we always used Publisher to create multiple files based on loop and reduce rules.
Now with 10 and integrated sections access handling, and the new license models of 9 (Document Cals) we have started to lean against using sections access more. Sections Access will require you only to have 1 file for many users. While loop and reduce creates many files, one for each access set. Loop and reduces is however easier to debug (since you can open one file and check if its all there).
If you need to hand out documents to mobile users, and preferably they need the same document then Section Access is the way to go.
Also the Loop and Reduce method puts more strain on the QlikView server since it requires a lot of documents to be loaded into memory, when used by many users who have different rights. Since Loop and Reduce creates many copies of the files, you need you delete files manually (f.ex. a department that has been removed), since the publisher does not clean its own files.
In a QlikView changing business enviroment, Documents Cals and Loop and Reduce is impossible to maintain, since to constantly need to add documents cals to User Documents.
So if you have documents cals, and offline users Section Access is the only way to go. Else might think about Loop and Reduce.
I guess that should cover your question, hope its what you wanted!
