Time out control for ProjectWise Drive Client

As we expand our usage of the ProjectWise Drive Client with our users, it is sometimes frustrating how oftin the user must re-authenticate the client to assure proper functionality and synchronization.

I would like to see a way to control this client's time out setting to a specific time out period more closley associated with a users workday. It might also be helpful if this option could be set by a company admin (Our Company) so we can control this setting, thereby allowing us to inform our users what to expect from the local client.

My fear is that the average user will either not notice and respond to the warning message about the need to log in again, OR, find it an unaceptable annoyance associated with using ProjectWise and ProjectWise Drive.

For our needs at this point, ProjectWise Drive is being used primarily as a soultion for those client Workspaces that need to be adapted to ProjectWise because of built in applications that only work if a "Local WorkStation" presence exists for the WorkSpace files. Therefore, this thing timing out so oftin creates an unacceptable point of failure for this as a solution.

Thanks in advance for your consideration.
