I am trying to create a permissioning model for a tab of my qlikview app. Therefore I would like to somehow link OSUser to EmployeeId. Currently by just using:
OSUser()
it recognises which user has logged onto the dashboard.
This is a sample of a table of some of the other data I have brought in.
ECDEmployeeId
ECDNTAccount

I then put in the code in a separate table:
Load upper(OSUser) as ECDNTAccount;
I want to be able to write some code where the dashboard would recognise the OSUser and then take the corresponding EmployeeId from this. However, all methods so far have not been successful. Has anyone any ideas how to do this? I tried using getcurrentselections function but again, it did not work.
You can try to put a trigger in the document properties. Access the property of the document and go on the tab trigger. Add a trigger selection, where the field ECDNTAccount receive the contents of the function upper (OsUser()).
