A partner requests the feature to specify client session timeout period per user.
Currently session timeout period is 1 hour. And user cannot change it.
They request that end user can change the client session timeout period.
For example, at User Options>Preference form.
(Business Process and Impact)
A partner developed a form which use temp table. If end user open it and does not use it more than 1 hour, the client session is expired.
After user click [Refresh] button, new session is created and data in temp table is gone.

Timing out in D365 F&O sessions are having a significant impact on our business processes. It's not just an inconvenience; it disrupts critical workflows, interrupts productivity, and can lead to data discrepancies and frustrated users. To ensure seamless operations and efficient business processes, it's crucial to address and extend session timing in D365 F&O for certain users.

This is particularly an issue with the visual scheduler (Gantt charts) which can take a few minutes to load a smallish data set. A feature of a planners job is to have the planning board open and keep it open - they may need to interact with various departments and the shop floor. The building of the temporary data gets reset when the inactivity limit is hit, meaning they have to wait several minutes again to reload and potentially lose the changes they've made that aren't committed yet.

I agree with this Idea. There are some user experiences that need to be left open longer, and when the user returns they can pick up where they left off. This could be a form setting.

Our D365 auto-logs users out after 24 hours, which is really annoying because if somebody comes in at 8am, logs in, and then gets in at 7:50 the next day, they are still logged in and just after they get started, it logs them out.
If anything the default should be set to 12 or 16 hours - 24 doesnt make sense since it will log out out the same time you logged in the day previous. Please allow us to change it to be lower - i can understand 24 as a max, but please allow us to lower it for all users as needed.

Due to GDPR and other regulatory requirements, it is becoming more and more relevant (and thereby urgent) to have this posibllity to set ttimeout parameters similar to what you can do in D365 Sales (CRM) as shown here:
