QVW in Management console but not to be shown in Accesspoint

HI,

Is it possible to have for example a load.qvw stored in a folder Privatedata and a appliacation.qvw stored in the folder Publicdata on the server so that both are visisble in the management console (V9) so that both can be schedueled but when opening the accesspoint that only the Application.qvw stored in the PublicData folder is shown to the enduser?

Kind regards,

Linda monincx

For end users who do not need access to the QVMC yes you can use NTFS security on the relevant folders to show / hide from your user community. However for administrators who may also be users this will not work because they need security access to both folders in order that they can schedule the documents in the QVMC but then as a result they also appear in AccessPoint. If only AccessPoint used a folder structure similar to the Open in Server part of the QlikView full client, then at least they would be logically placed and not simply part of a long list of QlikView documents as per AccessPoint.

You should be able to exclude folders from being displayed in Access Point without actually removing the security to get to the directory. We plan to exclude the directories that have all of our source files, leaving only the directories that have the distributed files. We're still on 8.5, and I haven't played with it in version 9 yet, so I won't be much help on specifics.
