This topic describes how to configure automatic logout
based on a specific profile.
You may want to exempt certain personnel from an automatic logout, or you may want to
change the time that a session can be inactive before a staff account is automatically logged
out. Either way, you can customize automatic logout by profile to override the time set in the
CLIENT_SESSION_EXP configuration setting.Note: When the SESSION_MANAGEMENT_ENABLED
configuration setting is disabled, this profile setting is disregarded.
- Click Configuration on the navigation
pane.
- Expand Staff Management, and then
double-click Profiles.
The report opens on the content pane.
- Select the profile you want to edit and click Open.
- Click the Other tab to display the
Session Timeout field.
The default value of the Session Timeout field is null, meaning that the value specified in
the CLIENT_SESSION_EXP configuration setting will be used for automatic logout.
Change the null default only if you want to override the value in
CLIENT_SESSION_EXP.
- To exempt staff members associated with this profile from
being automatically logged out, enter 0 in
the field.
-
To set another value, which will override the value specified in the
CLIENT_SESSION_EXP configuration setting, enter the number of minutes in the
field.
Note: Even if the value in CLIENT_SESSION_EXP is set to 0, any value
other than 0 in the Session Timeout field will be used to automatically log
out staff members associated with this profile when the minutes of
inactivity have been exceeded.
- Click Save.
- Repeat this procedure for all the profiles you want to
configure for automatic logout.
