List Logged in Users

This screen allows you to list users that are currently logged into Pak Accounting. If it is necessary to do a controlled shutdown, a message can be sent to all users logged in asking them to exit the system in a certain amount of time. When it is closer to the shutdown time, a message will be sent informing the users of how many minutes there are until shut down. New users will be prevented from starting Pak Accounting. In addition, Pak Accounting will shut down users that have no activity for a certain amount of time.
