This setting determines how long a user can be inactive before they are automatically signed out of J1 Web. Five minutes before users are signed out due to inactivity, a notification message appears asking the user if they want to remain signed in to J1 Web or if they want to proceed with signing out.
If the user is automatically signed out and they use the same tab to sign back in, they will be returned to where they were last working when they log back into J1 Web.
If the user is signed out and closes the J1 Web tab, they will see their Home page when they log back into J1 Web.
Note
Shorter times can improve security, but may have a more serious impact to user productivity.
Note
This setting applies to all J1 Web users.

When a user has not clicked/tapped, swiped, or typed within a field on any J1 Web page, and has not chosen to remain logged into J1 Web from the Stay Signed In? window within a certain period of time, they are considered inactive. Once they are signed out, the Sign in page appears.
Yes, once they are signed out, the J1 Web Sign in page appears. When they sign back in using that page, the page where they were last working appears. If they close the J1 Web browser tab and open a new J1 Web tab, they will see their Home page and not the last page where they were working. They can use the Recently Viewed Pages feature to navigate back to where they were before being signed off.
