3)Restart the QlikView Server service
4)Navigate to Root Directory and Open the CalData.pgo.xml file to determine to which document the
CALs were assigned
5) Create a new blank QVW file named the same as document listed in CalData.pgo.xml & save it in
the Root directory
6) In Management Console, navigate to Documents > User Documents and locate QWV created in the
previous step
7) Click Document CALs tab and set Number of CALs allocated to this Document to zero and click
