| Strict Exclusion | If this check box is marked in combination with Initial<br>Data Reduction Based on Section Access, strict exclusion will be<br>used when reducing the data. This means that access to the document will<br>be denied whenever the field values in the section access reduction fields<br>lack matches in their corresponding section application field. This, however,<br>does not apply for users with Admin status, who instead will see the unreduced<br>data set if there are no matches. |
| Initial Selection Based on Section Access | If this option is marked, QlikView will perform a procedure on opening<br>the document (or on establishing a new session on QlikView Server) which<br>shows the selection based on the identity with which the user has logged<br>on to the document. When this feature is used on a document not run exclusively<br>on a QlikView Server it should always be combined with the Prohibit<br>Binary Load option (see below) in order to maintain data access<br>security. This setting is mutually exclusive with Initial<br>Data Reduction Based on Section Access. |
| Prohibit Binary Load | If this option is selected it will not be possible to load data from<br>the QlikView document via a binary statement in another QlikView document. |
