Hi Judi4, 

 

Thank you for reaching out and welcome to our community!

 

May I confirm which browser are you using to access QuickBooks, please?

 

A few things worth mentioning with idle time:

  • QuickBooks Online measures your time of inactivity from the last time you moved your mouse, clicked, or used your keyboard on any transaction form.
  • If you are timed out, sign back into your company to continue where you left off.
  • The timeout setting can only be changed by the Master Administrator and it applies to all company users.

Thank you and please let us know if you require any additional assistance.

Hi Zac

Web browser is Chrome. It seems to have corrected itself, as haven't had the issue for a while now.

 

Thanks for your help.
