Can the variableTimeoutTrigger be called from an application (like the
variableTimeout) or is it only in a config file somewhere?
The documentation shows that you can set the timeout with <@ASSIGN
NAME=variableTimeout SCOPE=domain VALUE=0>, but doesn't say how to set
the Trigger. The instructions sound like you should be able to use
<@ASSIGN> but doesn't say how. Nor does it give any info about where to
set it for the system like some of the other config vars do.
I tried this:
<@ASSIGN NAME="variableTimeout" SCOPE="hipaa" VALUE="2">
<@ASSIGN NAME="variableTimeoutTrigger" SCOPE="hipaa"
VALUE="<@APPFILEPATH>timeout.html">
but it doesn't seem to work.
I've also switched a bunch of vars in this app from a custom scope
(hipaa) to USER scope because the custom scope evidently doesn't work as
I expected it to. If I can set this timeout & trigger in this app for
the USER scope, will that only apply to this app? (In other words, can
I use the timeout URL to return them to the login for *this* app, or
would it need to be a generic page for all apps.)
For this particular app, I'll just about guarantee a bunch of users who
will partially complete a form and then wander off to get more info and
get distracted. I'm going to set checks on each taf so that they'll get
kicked to login if they try to start a new record after timing out, but
I'd like to send them to a 'timed out' page if they leave a form open.
I've got a half-hour timeout set, which seems sufficient to me (they
really *should* have all the info together before they start) - if they
haven't done something in a half-hour, they've wandered off.
Thanks. j
