Re: Is there a process that would allow me to take control of an interactive session?

@Jack
In the world of SOX, your solution is not possible. The user management has
the last say and will not justify spending time on modifying code, Just too
much.

So the only solution is to access the job and respond on behalf of the user.

The transactional record-lock problem is classic!

The short answer is, "don't author transactional workflows that allow an
endpoint to lock and hold".

This is why the mainframe world has had CICS since the 1960's.

CICS/400 also exists but has almost completely disappeared.

There exist design patterns for creating well-behaved application
workflows.

If you have bad boy applications on your system, the sage advice is, "fix
them".

From time to time, a user will be in the middle of entering something like
an order when they get distracted, walk away or go home and leave the
session at that point, locking one or more records and objects.
