Section access
Setting up user authorization under QlikView is generally referred to as section access, named after the statement that initiates the authorization section of the script. In section access, fields are loaded with details on which user is allowed which access rights. These fields are loaded in the same way as any other field in QlikView and can be sourced from an inline table, database, or external file.
