Login time out

Can we alter the time that the software logs you out as have to login about 20 times a day whenever I leave my desk, so annoying

  • Hey Syd-Taylor,

     

    There's no option to alter the logout timeout. The system is set up this way to keep your sensitive business data protected if you get pulled away or leave your desk without signing out, so no one can jump in and make changes you didn’t approve. It locks after about 20 to 30 minutes of inactivity, and five minutes before that, you’ll see a message across the top of any open tab letting you tap “I’m still here” so you can keep working without the auto‑logout kicking in. You can find more info about inactivity screen lock through this link.

     

    Cheers,

    Doreen
