Re: Can we have a session without a log-on?

Create an easy logon like TIMESHEET/TIMESHEET

Lock down what that profile can access on the system CAREFULLY! 

Make it go into your timesheet program, and nothing else.

Replace your display screen so that instructions for entering the
TIMESHEET account are on the signon display.

have fun.
