Ideal Base System Updates

    1. Database Engine Upgrade:  Upgrade the database engine for improved performance & stability.
    2. Inactivity Timer:  Users do not always sign out of Ideal, consuming a license preventing others from logging in to Ideal.

The user can log back in with their password or close Ideal.
    3. Auto Log-off:  It is a good practice to close Ideal at the end of each day to free up system resources and allow maintenance activities such as backups, optimizations, and updates to run without interference.  The new Auto-Log off will close Ideal on the user’s inactivity time and Log off settings.    We suggest setting the Inactivity timer of 15-30 minutes and a  Log off value of  2-3 hours so Ideal is automatically closed every night.
