You click Log out in the header area of the main window to terminate the current session explicitly. The session expires without explicit logout if you are inactive for a longer period of time, i.e. if the SE Manager does not register any action within a certain period of time. The default setting for this time is 20 minutes after creating an account.
Users can change this setting for themselves in the range from 5 through 60 minutes or disable the session timeout at all:
> | Click in the login information in the header area. A list containing the menu item Individual settings opens. |
> | Click Individual settings. The Change individual settings dialog box opens in which you can enable/disable the session timeout and set the timeout in the range from 5 to 60 minutes. |
The individual setting is stored in the SE Manager on a user-specific basis.
If you click in the main window after the session has terminated, the login window opens and you must log in again.
When you start an action in a dialog box after a session has timed out, the following message appears:
The action could not be executed. Your session has expired. Please log in again.
The login window appears after the dialog closes. See section "The dialog".
