Practice Management: Cloud timesheet timeout issue

Error: 'I'm sorry an unknown error has occurred!...Click OK to continue entering your timesheet after the application reloads'

Updated over a month ago

The error above causes user to have to re-login to cloud timesheets multiple times throughout the day.

Currently, we have designed the access token to have a lifespan of 1 hour. We attempt to refresh the token when it reaches 80% of its expiration time, approximately 48 minutes. This process works seamlessly as long as the user's browser remains active.
​
However, if the user performs an action that hinders the refresh, such as putting their device to sleep, they will not receive a new token. This can lead to situations where the timeout appears to be very brief and the user will have to authenticate again.
