Record Locking

Select one of the following:
•Disable record locking in edit mode—Allows multiple users to edit the same record simultaneously. The first changes checked in by a user will be saved. Subsequent attempts to check in record changes will trigger warnings that the Document has changed. •Enable record locking in edit mode—Prevents multiple users from editing the same Document simultaneously. If you selected Enable record locking in edit mode, you can type the Idle time limit (minutes), which is the maximum time length after which a record that is locked without any changes saved will become unlocked.
To allow users to update the Relations tab for locked records, check Allow users to update Relations for locked or read-only records.

Session
|
Enter a numeric value (minutes) after which an inactive user's session will time out. Afterward, the user will need to log in to TeamConnect again. If a negative value is entered, user sessions will not time out.
Note: If your application server has an application session timeout configuration, the TeamConnect Session Timeout value will override the application server timeout setting.
If a user is running both a User application area browser and a Designer application area browser, the Designer browser session starts when the browser is opened. As a result, it is possible for the User browser session to time out before the Designer browser session.

TeamConnect URL
|
Login URL—Enter the TeamConnect login URL. For example:
http://host_name:8001/teamconnect3/login
(where you need to replace host_name with the IP address or application server name; replace 8001 with the port running the TeamConnect application; replace teamconnect3 with the TeamConnect application name)
Important: If you use the WebDAV feature to associate Document folders with email messages, you must put a valid URL in the Login URL field.
For email notifications, this URL is sent in the body of the email. This field is also required if your company uses HTTPS for the login URL, if you use a proxy server with TeamConnect, or if you use a different application server to log in to TeamConnect.
Note: You must include /login at the end of the URL. It is also recommended to type the public IP address, not the local IP address of the host server.
