Dear ProConnect Development Team,

I appreciate the automatic save feature of your software; however, I've encountered some areas that could be improved for a more efficient user experience:

1 - Refreshing Preview Window: The preview window doesn't always update immediately to reflect the most recent inputs, even after utilizing the "refresh form" option. Currently, one must navigate to "check return", return to the input screen, and then click "refresh form" for the latest inputs to appear. This process can be cumbersome and time-consuming. An enhanced save button or an update feature that more effectively and promptly reflects changes in the preview window would streamline this process.

2 - Session Management: There have been instances where, after entering some data and stepping away from the workstation (e.g., for a dinner break), I return to find the session expired and the newly entered data lost upon re-login. It would be beneficial to have a more robust session management system in place to prevent such data loss. This could be achieved through mechanisms like active session reminders, data-saving prompts before timeout, or an automatic save feature that triggers before session expiration.

I believe these suggested improvements would greatly enhance the overall user experience and efficiency of your product. Thank you for considering this feedback.

Best regards.

Thanks for the enhancements to refresh the preview window and data saving. We are changing the status to "Open for voting" since it has been around for over 30 days and no longer considered "New".
