• Document CALs Allocated to this Document, meaning the number of document CALs allocated to the current document.
• Document CALs Embedded in Document, meaning the number of document CALs within the current document, which are assigned to users.
• Document CALs Assigned to Users, meaning the number of document CALs that are already embedded in the current document.

Document CALs

Number of CALs Allocated to this Document

The number of document CALs that should be allocated to the current document. By default, this value is set to '0' (zero). To change the value, enter the desired value in this text box. To reset the value to zero again, enter '0' (zero) in the text box.

Allow Dynamic CAL Assignment

If this option is used, a new document CAL will automatically be granted to a user connecting to this QlikView Server for the first time, as long as there are available document CALs to assign. To allow the QlikView Server to assign CALs to any user that opens the document, tick this check box. To deny the QlikView Server to assign CALs to any user that opens the document, untick this check box.

General

Last Used (UTC)

The time stamp (UTC) from the last server activity of each user.

Quarantined Until (UTC)

If a CAL-to-user association has not been in use for the last 7 days, it will be deleted immediately. If a CAL-to-user association is currently being used or has recently been used, it will be marked for deletion, which means that new user access sessions through this CAL are not allowed. However, the CAL-to-user association will still occupy an allocated CAL until this quarantine period has passed.

Restore

Before that the Quarantined Until (UTC) time stamp has passed, a CAL-to-user association can be undeleted, by clicking on the Restore icon, .

Delete

When the Quarantined Until (UTC) time stamp has passed, a CAL-to-user association can be removed manually. To entirely remove a CAL-to-user association from the list, thus freeing a document CAL, click on the Delete icon,.
