Section access is not working

Hi,

I am trying to set section access on one of the document to reduce data per user.

I have added the following to the script

Section Access;

LOAD NTNAME,

     NTDOMAINSID,

     [ACCESS],

     MANUFACTLBL

FROM

C:\QlikviewReports\Sourcedocuments\SectionAccess\ByBrandNameMangers.xlsx

(ooxml, embedded labels, table is Sheet1);

Section Application;

Where I want to reduce data based on the MANUFACTLBL.

I have also Intialated the Data Reduction Based on section access on the Document properties/Opening tab.

and on the scurity I have checked the box reduce data.

When  I try to access the document using one of the users it asks me for UserID and Password and when I enter my QV User ID and Password it doesn't recognize me.

Is there anybody can help?

Hi

I suspect that the user's login is not one of those on the spreadsheet, so it cannot find the NTNAME and degrades to a username and password login. You have not supplied the username/password option on your section access, so it fails.

Alternatively, the user is on a different domain, so the domain SID is causing access to be blocked.

Hope that helps

I am working remotly on a server and I have logged using one of the names on my excel file.

and when logging to the access point to view the report i use the same userID.

Any suggestions on how to fix that?
