Note that Qlik Technical Support has virtually no scope when it comes to debugging or writing custom rules for customers. That level of implementation advice needs to be handled by Professional Services / Consulting and Pre-sales. That being said, Qlik Support is limited to best-effort basis assistance with Security / Load Balancing Rules. The examples available in Qlik's knowledge base are for demonstration purposes to explain specific scenarios. No Support or maintenance is implied or provided. Further customization is expected to be necessary and it is the responsibility of the end administrator to test and implement an appropriate rule for their specific use case.
