Download the PDF Job Aid for Faculty using SERRoster AutoSave Timing Out
The auto-save function in the SER roster will inactivate after the page sits idle for 25 minutes. If you have begun to enter information and get called away for a long while, please be sure to refresh the page before entering new data. Otherwise, you may lose the new entries. If you get the 401 error message, choosing “reload” will reactivate auto-save. As long as you don’t let the page sit idle for long periods of time, the auto-save will stay active.
