User Security - Hiding data

Maria Martineau Nov 18, 2011 4:58 AM

Hello QV community,

Is there a way to restrict what data users can see in qlikview. I have 6 departments (each in a different tab) and I have 10 users. Is there a way for the users to only be able to view their designated Tab or Tabs?

So for example

User 1 has access to Departments A,B,C,D,E,F

User 2 has access to Department A and B

User 3 has access to Department A

User 4 has access.... and so on

They have to do this in Qlikview and not Qlikview Access point as they have to be able to reload the data as and when they need it.

Your time is highly appreciated.

Mark

you can do this by section access:
1. sheet no. of tabs as follows:
DepartmentA- SH01
DepartmentB- SH02
DepartmentC- SH03
DepartmentD- SH04
DepartmentE- SH05
DepartmentF- SH06

I have attached the excel sheet and qvw file of section access as per your requirements.

hope this will solve your problem.

ya absolutely
when you reload the data all the tabs occur.

1. so do one thing go to document properties -> security -> user privilege -> uncheck reload
2. so that only admin can reload the data not user.
