Things to Remember

Please remember the following when using the MD Online IEP system:

  • For security reasons, the application has a time limit for how long the program remains idle.  This is about 30 minutes and will log the user out at that time.  Inactivity is caused by not "clicking" on anything in the program.  Any "click" will reset the timer back to start; however, typing is not considered "clicking" and therefore will not reset the timer.
     
  • SAVE often.  Using the SAVE button constitutes a "click" and will reset the timer as well as assuring no data is lost.  If the user navigates away from a screen in the MD Online IEP system without first saving, all data will be lost following the last time SAVE was used.  It is good practice to use the SAVE button often.
     
  • When using the SAVE button be sure to check the confirmation message at the top of the screen before navigating away.  If a critical piece of information is missing, the message will appear in red at the top of the screen.  This missing piece of information must be completed and the page saved again.  If the page has successfully saved, a green confirmation message will appear at the top of the screen.
     
  • Avoid using the back arrow on your browser.  As with any secure website using that button is discouraged to avoid losing previously entered data.  Instead, use the navigation choices on the left or top of the screen.
