9 User Homepage The User Homepage automatically appears when a user logs in to AeHN Clinical Portal. It displays summary information relevant to a user. The layout of each user s homepage is composed of one or many windowlets. Windowlets allow a screen to be partitioned allowing a user to see more than one view on a single screen. The homepage is divided into windowlets: Recent Patients My Worklist Received Messages Recent Patients Windowlet This windowlet provides a system generated list of the patient records most recently viewed by the user. The list of patients is sorted into the following categories: Today Last seven days Last four weeks Last twelve months My Worklist Windowlet This windowlet displays the homepage worklist(s) selected on the My Details screen.

It is located in the upper portion of the menu bar, just above the Common menu. It is important to use the Logout button as opposed to clicking on the X button located in the upper right hand corner of the browser. The logout button will log the user out of the system. If it is not used, the session will remain active for a pre-defined period of time before the auto-logout feature is activated. Inactivity Timeout In order to provide a secure environment, a default timeout of 30 minutes has been set by the administrator. On this screen, a user can set up an inactivity timeout period for his/her account that is less than the 30 minute maximum timeout. This setting ensures that the user will be logged out of AeHN Clinical Portal if he/ she does not use his/her computer for the number of minutes equal to the inactivity timeout value. If a timeout of less than 30 minutes is preferred by the user, he or she can re-set the timeout to 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 15 or 20 minutes. AeHN Clinical Portal counts mouse movement over the menu or context bar as activity.
