Locking the System

You can lock the system to prevent PolicyTech™ users from logging in, such as when you need to perform system maintenance. When the system is locked, users see the following message when they attempt to log in: "System Temporarily Locked."

Important: Locking the system only prevents new logins; it does not end the sessions of those who are already logged in.

1. Click PREFERENCES.
2. Click System / IT Settings, and then click Login Settings.
3. Click Lock System.

4. (Optional) To set a timer that will automatically unlock the system after a certain amount of time, in the Global Settings tab, select the Timeout lockout after check box, and then type a number of minutes.

When you're ready to open up the system again, follow steps 1 and 2 above, and then click Un-Lock System.
