Thanks for dropping your concern here in the Community space, Bret. Let me assist you with the logout duration when working with QuickBooks Online (QBO).

 

For security, QBO has built a logout timeframe duration every time you're inactive using it. The default setting is 1 hour, but you can change it to 3 hours. I'll show you how:

 

  1. In Settings, click Account and Settings and choose Advance.
  2. From the Other Preferences section, select Edit.
  3. Decide from 1, 2 or 3 hours from the Sign me out if inactive for dropdown menu.
  4. Once done, hit Save and Done.

 

Moreover, you can visit this article as your guide when modifying settings to fit your standards inside QBO: Get started and adjust settings after you sign up for QuickBooks Online.

 

You can reply to this post for more questions about handling your business inside QBO. I'm always here to help you. Have a great day!
