Concept: Session Management

You can configure when Workday VNDLY sessions expire and time out due to inactivity. You can use this configuration to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data when a user leaves their computer or laptop unattended while still logged in to Workday VNDLY. This is a compliance requirement for VNDLY to meet certain certification guidelines.

Session activity includes clicking links, editing values, mouse movement, and requests to the server. Example: If you're waiting for report results, your session won't time out due to inactivity. When a session times out, the user must reenter their credentials to sign back in to Workday VNDLY.

Sessions time out if:

You select the
Enable Session Inactivity Timeout
option.
The sessions haven't been active for the amount of time specified in the
Inactive Session Expiration (Seconds)
field.

You can access session management configuration by navigating to the header and selecting
