still i am searching the auto logoff application or querry for idle user in GP2013
I will definitely look these links.:)
Read my three posts on auto logout and the user messaging process in the GP client, although this is in the context of writing a plug in, it will give you an understanding of the behaviour you are seeing.

Please be inform you that as mr.tim informed the idle time is not reading in GP2013 (sqlserver2014 db)something is happening. it was working perfect in GP10 (sqlserver2005).my intention is to auto logout the idle user. please anybody help me
Btw Ali did your dynamics database for gp 2013 named dynamics or something else (like DYNAMICS2013) just asking in case you have multiple instances on your sql server.
Hmmm but it's showinng me the time on my server and I don't think it's something because of gp 2013.
Almas,
I'm suggesting, that perhaps a reason for the idle time showing zero (from the original question), is that the application is polling (asking) the database with a SQL select query every minute, to check the messages table for messages to pop up on the client machine (the change time message does not come from the database, it is in process).
In previous versions of GP this process did not exist, less was running in the background, so the database connection idle value would have represented more closely a user idle time.
I'm not discussing the functionality of the user messaging itself merely highlighting the impact its existence is going to have on idle times in the database.
Tim
Tim what if user is not login, lets say user 'almas' is not login and user Tim don't aware of it and save some message for almas in table 'SY30000'? I don't think table will refuse to save message for user 'almas' because she is not login to gp? then process will check and if found user login pops the message irrespective of the fact user is doing anything or not. I think it's a different scenario here. For Example system don't bother if use is idle or doing anything, it just pop up date changing message for user if he found user in session.Just a thought..
