Manually

On the Manually tab, the document distribution method and the authorization of recipients can be managed. Documents can be distributed to QlikView Servers, to users via e-mail, and to specific folders. In this tab you can also configure the distribution of QlikView documents, and of links to QlikView documents to a cloud deployment.

• Distribute to QlikView Server

• Distribute via E-mail
• Distribute to Folder

Any combination of distribution methods are allowed.

When you distribute a document to folder, document information, metadata such as categories or attributes, is not distributed. If you want to distribute document information as well, you need to use the Distribute to QlikView Server method.
