- ICX Timeout Profile Values
The following E-Business Suite profile options control screen timeouts for Forms, as well as Self Service sessions. Again, please note, some of the ICX profiles also control Forms Session timeouts!
This can be confusing since Inter-Cartridge Exchange (ICX) is often
associated with Self Service applications. This is no longer the case
since the release of Framework for the ICX Profiles control the timeout
functionality.

· ICX:Session Timeout
- This profile option determines the length of time (in minutes) of
inactivity in a user's form session before the session is disabled.
Note that disabled does not mean terminated or killed. The user is
provided the opportunity to re-authenticate and re-enable their
timed-out session. If the re-authentication is successful, the disabled
session is re-enabled and no work is lost. Otherwise, the session is
terminated without saving pending work. This functionality is available
via Patch 2012308 (included in 11.5.7, FND.E). Note: Setting the
profile value to greater than 30 minutes can drain the JVM resources and
cause ‘out of memory’ errors.
· ICX: Limit time
- This profile option defines the maximum connection time for a
connection – regardless of user activity. If 'ICX:Session Timeout' is
set to NULL, then the session will last only as long as 'ICX: Limit
Time', regardless of user activity.
· ICX: Limit connect
- This profile option defines the maximum number of connection requests
a user can make in a single session. Note that other EBS internal
checks will generate connection requests during a user session, so it is
not just user activity that can increment the count.
