To set a terminal to require a password after inactivity or pick up now orders:For terminals that are running Solar Eclipse that multiple people have access to, such as terminals at your sales counter or in your warehouse, you can set the terminal to require a password to access Solar Eclipse on that terminal under the following circumstances:
After the time set in the Seconds Of Inactivity Before Requiring Relogcontrol maintenance record has passed with no activity at the terminal.
After completing an order with a Pick Up Now status.
Setting a terminal to require a password to access Solar Eclipse prevents employees from using the terminal under someone else's login name, and also allows faster access to the application because the application is still running. When the user returns to the terminal and enters their password, the system returns them to the window they were in.
For example, set individual terminals to lock access to the Solar Eclipse screens each time a sales order with a Pick Up Now status is completed, giving the employee an opportunity to walk away from the terminal to gather the items for the customer standing at the counter.
To set a terminal to require a password after inactivity or pick up now orders:
From the System > System Files menu, select Terminal Setup to display the Terminal Setup screen.
In the Search Criteria field, enter the ID of the terminal and press Enter.
In the RL field for the terminal, enter Y to require a password to access the terminal each time the user closes the Sales Order Entry window for a Pick Up Now order, or uses Ctrl . (period) to start a new order.
If an order is still open and displayed on the screen, the system does not log the user off.
In addition, if you set the RL field to Y, the system requires a password to access Eclipse after the terminal is inactive for the time specified in the Seconds Of Inactivity Before Requiring Relog control maintenance record.
Press Esc to save your changes and exit the terminal.
