Your Qlik Sense Enterprise license is based either on access types, or on s. A core-based license is also available. With a signed license key, you need internet access (direct or through a proxy) to access the cloud-based license backend, for user assignments, analytic time consumption, and product activations.
Licensing your QlikView Server with a Serial Number and LEF Open the QlikView Management Console. Navigate to the tab System. Click Licenses.

The License usage summary overview shows the access availability, and the distribution of the two access types: professional access and analyzer access. You cannot adjust the total number of users of professional and analyzer access from this page, that is determined by the license for the Qlik Sense site.
In QlikView Server, user-based licenses are either Professional and Analyzer Users licenses, or Client Access Licenses (CALs). A capacity-based license grants a predefined number of time allocations for accessing QlikView that can be used by identified or anonymous users.
A software license is a legal agreement that defines the terms of usage and provides the right to one or more copies of software to end users. Without a license, using and redistributing the software would be considered a breach of copyright law.
