Question

Custom Message One Minute Before Auto Logout.

Basis, SAP Basis

Hello SAP BASIS GURUS.

In Production System I have set the parameter: rdisp/gui_auto_logout to
900 seconds (it means 15 minutes).

As I understand the Abap Dispatcher is sending Autologof Messages to SAP GUI.

Is it possible to setup a Customer PoPup Message one minute before the Abap Dispatcher autologoff inactive
users ?

I was trying the parameters:
rdisp/keepalive_timeout
rdisp/keepalive

but there is no information regarding our requirement.


Thanks for your answer.

Best Regards.

Mauricio.

Hi Mauricio

I understand your need to keep logged on.

I have seen it done in other systems/environments e.g. main frame. It is possible to do it through ABAP code which would be running in the background when you logon. However one needs to consider the pros and cons of such processes/procedures. It certainly gives you the advantage of not being logged off. However this poses a security risk, as some one else may be able to use your logon and cause problems not only for yourself but to the organisation you are working for.

The reason that a person is logged off if he/she has not been actively using it for a set time limit is to avoid the risk to security and integrity of data. This is a common and normal standard in a production environment using Best Practices. Before you plan to avoid the logging off, you need to see if your employer sees this as against its standards.
