Rich,

It would take a bit of work, but you can get it to happen if you would like.

 

There is a run-process named PERFORM-ACTION-EXIT-APP.  The trick would be
getting this to fire on a client other than the one initiating the logoff.
I would do something along the lines of

 

1 �C Put an interval based AL on all forms you want to monitor from, have it
check as often as you would like.  Have it run a guide that checks for an
entry in a table for $USER$

2 �C Have that Guide perform the process PERFORM-ACTION-EXIT-APP if a record
is found, do any other processing/etc necessary as well, including clearing
the change flag on any forms currently open, maybe even updating the record
to say that the logoff was processed

3 �C Have your interface program insert a record into the above mentioned
table, and look for the flag mentioned in #2, or wait for X seconds/minutes,
and then do what’s necessary.

 

Not exceedingly pretty, but it should be effective in logging the user
off….the only caveat I can see is that each time the interval fires, you
will be communicating between the client and the server, thus increasing
your network traffic for each user logged in….depending on the qual for the
guide…you would want to minimize this as much as possible.

Subject: API call to sign a client OFF

 

** 

IS there an API call we can make to sign a person off from the client?  We
are working on a blackberry approval app the  runs into a problem if the
person is signed on to Remedy ITSM 7.0.1.  The approval works if the person
is not signed onto Remedy, but fails if he/she is signed on.  The caveat
would be they would have to sign-in again, but that may be better than
failing they BB approval because they forgot to sign-out when they stepped
away from their desk.

 

Best regards, 
Rich
