Hi,

Is LDAP Configured in your qlikview server?, if not follow below url steps (LDAP provides a list of users that can be used to configure CAL assignment and document authorization.) Windows using Active Directory (AD). Create a new user in Active Directory, assign a QlikView license to that user in the QMC and grant document permissions

https://help.qlik.com/en-US/qlikview/12.1/Subsystems/QMC/Content/QMC_System_Setup_DirectoryServicePr...

1) System -> Licenses-> Qlikview Server-> Client Access Licenses -> Assigned Cals -> Add required users

2) To grant document access to users

QMC -> Documents -> User Documents-> Select the Document-> Authorization-> Click on + Symbol -> Select Named Users and add the required users.

Thanks, Deva

Dear Karan,

You need to understand how QlikView Authentication and Authorization works.

Authentication : For this you need to use the Directory Service Connection to link Qlik with AD or LDAP.

Authorization : To restrict User to see what they are authorized to see (Which we call in Qlik as Section Access).

Have a look at the link below for more info.

Authentication and Authorization

Thanks a lot guys for your inputs.

But if i need to restrict a group of users to see only the sales of Agra, then do i need to use section access or QMC.

Hi Karan,

You need to use section action (data level security).

You can create Section Access in the QMC, so with your or-or question you may be depriving yourself from some nice features of the QlikView environment.
