Qlikview License Requirement and Description QlikView Small Business Edition Server This Server Edition is designed to be used in smaller deployments. The minimum order configuration for a QlikView Server Small Business Edition is 5 Named Users CALs. The QlikView SBE Server has the following limitations: • Limited to 25 Named User CALs • Limited to 100 Document CALs • No support for creating and sharing any objects (Bookmarks, Charts, List boxes etc) on the server • Only supports Window Active Directory to handle security and access control Client Access License assignment on a QlikView Small Business Edition Server On the same QlikView SBE Server one can use a mix of different CALs (Named and Document). Optionally,the QlikView Server can be set to automatically assign licenses when users access the server. This capabilitycan be turned off, if desired. When a user accesses a QlikView SBE Server, the user will be evaluated in this order: If already a Named user, use this license If already a Document CAL user, use this license, if not Are there any Named User CALs available, allocate a license, if not Are there any Document CALs available, allocate a license If there are no CALs available, the user will be prompted to contact the system manager to request a license. End Users can add more users by purchasing additional Named User or Document CALs. QlikView Small Business Edition Servers are limited to 25 Named CALs and 100 Document CALs. QlikView Server access The QlikView Server can be accessed by QlikView licensed users using any of the following deployment methods: • QlikView Local Client using open in server • QlikView Analyzer Plug-in client (Internet Explorer only) • QlikView Analyzer AJAX client • Support for the following Mobile clients o iPhone/iPad o Blackberry o Android o QlikView Mobile Java Edition • Via APIs through COM or Web Services Named User CAL A Named User CAL is mandatory when deploying a QlikView Server solution. A Named User CAL (an identified user on a server) has access based on user identity and is valid for all documents on the server, therefore any number of concurrent sessions from one user on one machine at any time is allowed. Offline use (Borrow CAL from Server) Named User CALs also allow users to open documents locally after the user has been assigned a Named User CAL on the server. Named User CALs are assigned on the server when the user accesses the server for the first time. QlikView Server will provide a license key automatically to the Named Users workstation that is valid for 30 days. Every time the Named User logs on to the QlikView Server the license key will be renewed. The QlikView client must then make an authenticated log on (not anonymous) and obtain a Named CAL.

QlikView Small Business Edition Server This Server Edition is designed to be used in smaller deployments. The minimum order configuration for a QlikView Server Small Business Edition is 5 Named Users CALs. The QlikView SBE Server has the following limitations: • Limited to 25 Named User CALs • Limited to 100 Document CALs • No support for creating and sharing any objects (Bookmarks, Charts, List boxes etc) on the server • Only supports Window Active Directory to handle security and access control
Client Access License assignment on a QlikView Small Business Edition Server On the same QlikView SBE Server one can use a mix of different CALs (Named and Document). Optionally,the QlikView Server can be set to automatically assign licenses when users access the server. This capabilitycan be turned off, if desired. When a user accesses a QlikView SBE Server, the user will be evaluated in this order: If already a Named user, use this license If already a Document CAL user, use this license, if not Are there any Named User CALs available, allocate a license, if not Are there any Document CALs available, allocate a license If there are no CALs available, the user will be prompted to contact the system manager to request a license. End Users can add more users by purchasing additional Named User or Document CALs. QlikView Small Business Edition Servers are limited to 25 Named CALs and 100 Document CALs.
QlikView Server access The QlikView Server can be accessed by QlikView licensed users using any of the following deployment methods: • QlikView Local Client using open in server • QlikView Analyzer Plug-in client (Internet Explorer only) • QlikView Analyzer AJAX client • Support for the following Mobile clients o iPhone/iPad o Blackberry o Android o QlikView Mobile Java Edition • Via APIs through COM or Web Services
Named User CAL A Named User CAL is mandatory when deploying a QlikView Server solution. A Named User CAL (an identified user on a server) has access based on user identity and is valid for all documents on the server, therefore any number of concurrent sessions from one user on one machine at any time is allowed.
Offline use (Borrow CAL from Server) Named User CALs also allow users to open documents locally after the user has been assigned a Named User CAL on the server. Named User CALs are assigned on the server when the user accesses the server for the first time. QlikView Server will provide a license key automatically to the Named Users workstation that is valid for 30 days. Every time the Named User logs on to the QlikView Server the license key will be renewed. The QlikView client must then make an authenticated log on (not anonymous) and obtain a Named CAL.
Each time QlikView is started, QlikView tries to contact the QlikView Server and renew the license lease. If the client cannot reach the Server after 30 days, the license lease expires. A license lease is only activated and checked using the QlikView Desktop or the QlikView Plug-In for Internet Explorer. It is not possible to obtain a license lease using the Ajax clients.
Document CAL A Document CAL allows one user to open one QlikView document. The license is perpetual and will allow the user to open a (but not “the”) single document. When a user opens a QlikView Document and consumes a Document CAL the user will be stored against the QlikView Document. The combination of a user would be stored in QlikView Server like Named users (server PGO files) but associated with a Document name instead of the “full server”. The Document CAL is very flexible. If an end user installs 100 Document CALs on a QlikView Server this will allow for a lot of combinations: 1 user can open 100 different documents -- or -- 100 different users can open the same document -- or -- 33 different users can use a Sales app 33 other users can use a Finance app 34 other users can use an Accounts Payable app -- or -- 50 different users can use a Sales app 10 other users can use a Finance app 40 other users can use an Accounts Payable app And so on….
