Customize Employee Hub Session Timeout

The Session Timeout is a required security standard to prevent unauthorized access, which is why we cannot disable it. However, there is the option to customize the timeout duration.

Configuring Session Timeout

  1. Navigate to HR Admin in Salesforce
  2. Go to Hub Settings
  3. Click on Security

You will see an empty field titled "Inactivity Timeout". You can add the specified period of inactivity (in minutes). After this time, employees will be logged out of their Hubs automatically.

Setting the Timeout Duration

Enter the number of minutes you want the session to remain active before automatically logging out inactive users. For example:

  • 30 minutes: Standard timeout for most organizations
  • 60 minutes: Longer session for convenience
  • 15 minutes: Shorter session for enhanced security

The timeout applies to all Employee Hub users and helps maintain security by automatically logging out users who have been inactive for the specified period.
