I have two xls files.One as userdetails and other as the Security details.

Attached the file for your reference. i am able access only the users with Access as ADMIN and the other user id's i am not able to access. it is throwing the error wrong username and Password. Is there anyting related to License or why i am getting this error??

Thanks Syed,

So how does i will be able to restrict based on the Designation. Should i need to add one more as Designation and need to restrict the access..Please suggest.

Thanks..

Hi,

Irrespective of the designation you can grant complete access only to ADMIN and restrict other USERS. You can can have one more column designation. Using this you can give different levels of access to different users in the Section Applications. For detailed information on section Access application you can see the Help doc. in QLikView or search for Section Access post in this forum.

Hi Syed,

Now it is different issue i am facing in the section Access. What ever the user i am trying to login i am able to see all the sheets.

I have added one more column as Permissions and defined the dessignations and still it is prompting for username and password.

and works only for the username and password what i have defined in the Xls file.But all users have access to all sections.

I am not sure where i am missing

Please find the user details and the script
