There is a new functionality introduced in BI 4.1 SP3.

you can use that. Below is the screenshot for the same.

Fingers-crossed that SAP BO-BI 4.1 (SP3) is released to GA as scheduled in the next couple of days....this will be a great feature-addition to CMC.

More than the screenshot above, I have posted the full overview of the feature here:

SP3 is going through the final steps so we still expect it soon.

Hello Mohamed,

In addition to above mentioned KBAs and in order to perform session cleanup automatically by BO itself, I would recommend to implement settings as suggested in SAP KBA: 1668750.

http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1668750

Just an FYI..you can check active users session list using query build as well. Here is the query:

SELECT
SI_ID, SI_USERID, SI_APSNAME, SI_LOGON_ALIAS, SI_LASTLOGONTIME
FROM CI_SYSTEMOBJECTS
WHERE SI_KIND = 'Connection' AND SI_FAILOVER_AVAILABLE_UNTIL = NULL AND SI_AUTHEN_METHOD != 'server-token' ORDER BY SI_ID

Mahesh

Hi Ajay

I know, there are manually process to kill the session in Crystal Server 2013. But I need to know how to kill the session itself after closed browser. Crystal Reports are accessing through the launchpad and there are no logoff sign. We need to close the browser. Please advise.

Thanks

Mohamed,

      This feature is currently NOT available within the product.  The only way to do this write a custom SDK to perform this option.   SAP is fully aware of this issue we submitted an Idea and were promised this feature in the first half of the 2014 as an part of SP/Patch updates for BI 4.1

We ended up writing custom JAVA SDK for our clients until the SAP BI Enhancement team adds this feature within the Platform.

Regards,

Ajay
