Hi,

I am new on QlikView and I have to know what licence and what type (licence server or not) is requiered for sending automatic emails from QV.

Thank you for your help.

Hi,

I guess you mean sending PDF or QVW reports by email. If this is the case, it's called Publisher License, that is added to a QlikView Server license. That allows you to perform smaller QVW and send them by email. If you want in addition the PDF format for your reports, then it's a different license called PDF Distributor.

However, the best advice you can get is from your sales rep from QlikTech, or your partner manager if you are a partner.

Hope that helps.

Thank you Miguel for you response. Ok I will open a thread in the Dep Community.

Hi,

Alerts will work when the document is open using Desktop or Plugin, but they will not work in the Server as long as the OnPostReload triggers are not fired in the Server environment. It does not depend on the license of the Server, as far as I know. Anyway, I recommend you to open a new thread in the Deployment community so they can help you on the way Alerts work in Server.

Hope that helps.

Hello,

Depending on the actions you are calling from the triggers, you can use Supporting Tasks in the QEMC to open qv.exe (QlikView Desktop) so the alerts will run. But generally speaking if what you are looking for is to notify users by email when their documents have been reloaded and are available, then yes, you need a Publisher license.

Hope that helps.
