Question about auto logout in QKGO file

[Deskin, Bob]

I just tested this in 8.41E (Windows). It's generic and should work the
same way on all platforms. If not, please report a bug.
 
QUICK keeps an internal count if there's a QKGO Timeout setting. I don't
know how often it's checked, but I know that it issues a warning message
a few seconds before the actual time-out. For example, I set it to 30
seconds and got a warning 7 seconds before the time-out. At the time-out
it exits QUICK (doing the appropriate rollbacks and backouts). The basis
is whether there's any input from the user. If there's none, QUICK times
out.

	How does the QKGO file's timeout feature work? 
	Is the QKGO file (say 20 mins) checking frequently, to kick
people out if they've left a QUICK session online for longer than 20
minutes? Does it only kick them out AFTER they try to change screens,
for example?

	The issue we're having is we're running out of powerhouse
licenses due to the number of users trying to access the system from a
powerhouse main menu. However, there are people that leave their
sessions on the screen in this main menu, without logging out and so it
books a license. As soon as they go back and try and do something QKGO
seems to kick in and therefore logs them out, basically saying "...uh
uh.. Sorry... you took too long to action your screen". We want QKGO to
do this anyway, and kick them out of the screen whether they are using
it or not.

	Thanks 

	Kind regards,
