Auto logout Sage users:

Customer would like a built-in enhancement where you can define a set period of time where it logs out a Sage user from the program automatically, in their case, 20 minutes, providing there has been no activity.

    Commenting for visibility that either an auto-logout or the ability to force log out of users is vital for month end processes. There are numerous "Merged ideas" referencing this, but this specific idea doesn't comment on or reflect that this is key to being able to process month end activities without having to call every single user still logged in.

    This also needs to take into account of when a machine goes to sleep. At the moment, when a machine sleeps and Sage 200 is open, the session will become disconnected after about 5 mins. When the machine is woken from sleep, if the user then proceeds to use the Sage client, it will crash because the session is no longer valid. Either the Sage client needs to block the sleep state or to detect the transition to the sleep state and decide what to do next. If the client can close, it should be closed so that sleep is possible or if not, block sleep with perhaps a warning to the user.

When processing certain parts of sage, such as month end ledger closures, it will not allow you to complete it due to people accessing certain modules. If they have crashed in Sage 200 after a certain amount of time you can log off that user in th...

System administration - force user log off

Merged
When trying to close a month all users need to be logged off. If any users have locked their pc's and not logged off from sage this system admin function can't be performed. We need a way to force users to log off.

Ability to sign users out of Sage 200 via the Active Users tab in System Admin

Merged
Quite often users show as being logged into Sage 200 when they are clearly not, either because of a network drop or by not signing out of RDP connections correctly. It would be useful to have the option of kicking a user out of Sage 200 via the Ac...

Automatically sign out after period of inactivity

For sites that have limited licences, this would be a major benefit, but would also benefit every company. The option to set up a policy that would automatically close Sage after periods of inactivity, as long as the user wasn&t in the middle ...

Kick users out of Sage 200

Merged
We frequently find that users have gone off and left Sage 200 open, often not doing anything but perhaps with a screen open. Would be good for Admin to have some means of closing open screens/logging users out as it can mean people who are off sic...

System timeout/disconnect message

Merged
The system will prompt the error message when network disconnect or not action for a while. Please consider to prompt a system timeout/disconnect message and create a button to user to close the system and reopen again.
