Hi Shree,
As mentioned in your post, the configuration given in the document is Basis related. However, the entire configuration for Digital Signature for Form 16 is available in Note 1168740. Are you facing some problem in opening the links mentioned in the Note?
You can try to visit the below links:
a) Uploading a digital signature in the system:
You obtain your credentials and the corresponding public keys (as part of a certificate) for certifying and signing from a
certification authority. Steps to install these credetials is explained at following URL:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/db/aafb211ead420faeeaa24e99eb5f41/frameset.htm
Further information on digital signature can be found at:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/46/1ca382f3ec5873e10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
Also, go through the Note 1589254 (Form 16 central note for ADS configuration). In order to include digital signature to Form 16's PDF, some additional ADS configuration is required. This note provide check point of ADS configuration for Form16. Once done check the form 16 and let me know if you are getting some error on executing Form 16 with digital signature? Or are the signature not working at all?

How to enable digital signature for browser enabled infopath form?

Dear all,
I have designed infopath form and published it into the document library. I want to provide signature option on the browser enabled infopath form.
I have created it using secion and digital signature control.
but I am getting this message.
When i click on Yes . I get following screen.
And it just hang here. I have enabled the active x control feature for IE.
Please tell me where i should install this component and how it can be done?
I have access only to the sharepoint site.
Thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to enable digital signature for browser enabled infopath form.
To be able to sign this form, you need to activate two Windows Internet Explorer add-ons. Click the Information Bar in the dialog box, and then click Run ActiveX control to activate each add-on.
Then you need to active the following add-on.
In my environment, after I click the Next button, it open the picture as below.
Once I click the link to add the add-on as above, everthing works well.
For more information, you can refer to:

Digital Signatures for mutliple company code

Hi,
Our client have multiple company codes & they want to use digital signature for all the company code and there be individual authorised digital signatory for each comp code.
Now the question is , whether we have procure different digital signature for individual company codes & if so how system will identifies which authorised ditigatl signature should be assigned to respective company code...?
=> We are not able to download Adobe Form local & aslo is it mandatory to have digital signature to download Form 16 on a local system.
System details : ECC 6
SP Level : 38
Thanks & Regrads,

Digital Signature is person specific
You have to take the Digital signature ( A number assigned for each signatory with the tool),from an authorized services provided by NSDL
In a single company code if you have 2/3 signatories , first you need to make groups based on the signing authorities, in combination of PA/PSA/EG/ESG/BA etc
The form 16 is to be generated on the above criteria applicable.
3 file of form16 will be generated and send accross to 3 signing authorities
The signing authority can open the form using the tool ,digitial signatory software install and can authenticate the form16.
As per NSDL form16 is now not an statuory doucment. Its just an Tax Information of an Employee.
which is not required to be attached with your ITR's also
So why do you require the Digital signature to be printed on the form16 . Pls check this up with your finance team

Create electronic-digital signature for data

Hello
As possible create electronic-digital signature for data, referred through HTTP form internet explorer?
Thank you very much for your support.

George,
Thank you for your submission. It was helpful. This allowed me to create the signature block without having to place my own digital signature in the block. However, when I send it to my client (who has Adobe Reader but not Acrobat) she is unable to input her digital signature … I’m now half-way there but I continue to pursue a solution.

Digital signature on Form 16 - PDFManipulation Module error

We are trying to implement digital signature on form 16 and have followed instructions in note # 1168740. One thing that remains is the installation of 'Trusted Anchors'. The procedure for installation of trusted anchors is to copy the Trusted Anchor file (<filename>.cer) to the /usr/sap/<SAPSID>/SYS/global/AdobeDocumentServices/
TrustManagerService/trust/certificates directory.
We have installed ReaderRights and ServerSignature. All we have is a '.PFX' file that contains the digital signature of the signing authority. This is issued by the authorized Certifying Authority (CA).
Q. What is '.CER' file and where do we get this file from.
When testing the server side signature test program - FP_PDF_TEST_07, we get the following error:
ERROR CODE : 201,501
ERROR MESSAGE :
Processing exception during a "Sign" operation.#Request start time: Fri May 07 14:46:36 IST 2010#com.adobe.ads.exception.FailedCreationExcepti

Any tips on how to proceed further will be highly appreciated.

I have a similar issues and looking for the <filename>.cer file to install the Trusted Anchor to validate digital signature in Adobe Interactive Forms.
Did you resolve this issue?
Can you please let me know where to get this file?

Need a Suggestion For implementing the Digital Signature For the Documents

Hmm, if you are not using Oracle Payroll, what are you using for payroll? I am wondering why you could not use your payroll system, whatever it is, to handle this reimbursement program.
Well, you may want to talk to Oracle support about how to handle this in Oracle iExpense. You can certainly handle advances for Expense Reports. You would then apply the advance to the expense report items. The catch is I don't think you can stop expense item entry after the adavance is satisfied. You would have to set up a work flow process of some kind to have the expense reports reviewed and only approve expenses that are applied to the advance, is what I am thinking. Not your ideal solution, but something to think about. It could be the Oracle folks might know of a sneaky way to handle this. What you are trying to do is unusual. Employee advances are common, but the idea of not being able to exceed the advance amount is what unusual about this. Normally you will accept any expenses over the advance amount and reimburse the employee for those extra amounts not advanced.
Good luck.

How to format the text in a Digital Signature for a PDF in landscape orientation?

I have a custom Digital Signature plug-in which prompts the user to enter few details on a dialog and then renders the signature. Now, the problem is for a page which has PDPageGetRotate value as 90. In this case, the entire content(text) in the signature is rendered reversed i.e its displayed upside down. However, for a page in portrait mode, i.e with rotation value as 0, signature is correctly displayed.
Can anybody help me by explaining which callback/method to use to frame the text appearance? I think there needs to be some change in the parameters passed to DigSigAPCreateLayeredStreamEx, am i correct?
Let me know any comments/suggestions on this issue of correctly rendering text in a digital signature for a rotated page.

Just setup the appropriate transformation matrix.

Digital Signatures for Changing the statuses in Issue Mgmt

Hi
Has anyone put in place digital signatures for Issue
Managemnt when we change the status values in an issue.
We are looking at SAP Note 835584 - Digital signature for documents,
but that is not applicable for us as we want to initiate the digital
signature when the status profile "SLFI0001" kicks in and the status is
changed from one to the other.(eg in process to completed etc)
We have created the digital signature and the strategies, but are
looking for a place to attach this with the status profile "SLFI0001".
Is there a place we can attach the digital signature strategies to this
status profile?
Anyone has any ideas on how it can be done?
Thanks in advance..

We have a document that needs to be signed by more than one individual -- and in our process we are using the Topacz signature pad to get the signature. It's similar to the one you sign at the grocery store, drug store, etc. In order to NOT have the first signature invalidated, we were told to edit the registry...and it works perfectly!
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\8.0\AVAlert\cCheckbox]
"iDigSigSaveAsCertified"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\8.0\AVAlert\cCheckbox\cAnnots]
"iReaderEnableSaveWarn"=dword:00000001
Obviously if you are using a different version of Acrobat, you'll have to change the key accordingly.
Hopefully this will work with your process.
Good luck!!

How to get digital signature for Google Map geocoding V3 in PL/SQL?

Hi, Gurus:
    Could anyone provide me an example about how to generate digital signature for Google Maps service v3 in PL/SQL? We tried to upgrade our program using Google maps service from v2 to v3. We are using PL/SQl on background to send request to Google for geocoding. We found some sample code to register with digital signature, but none of them is based on PL/SQl.

How to configure CoSign Electronic Digital Signatures for UCM 11g

Hi everyone,
current I am doing a UCM poc with CoSign Electronic Digital Signature for a customer, this case is that when user approve a check-in PDF document in workflow, the user can use "sign and approve" to invoke the electronic digital signature action.
since ECM 11g is based on weblogic, I configured the keystore for the weblogic as the below steps:
1) use keytool to import a keystrore file just as cosigncert.jks from the cert file which provided by the vendor CoSign.
2) Security Realms->myRealm->Providers->Credential Mapping, create a new provider using "PKI Credential Mapping Provider" and configure the storekey cosigncert.jks for this provider.
3) Security Realms->myRealm->Providers->Authentication, select DefaultIdentityAsserter and add x509
4) configure storekey for AdminServer and UCM managerServer using cosigncert.jks
5) configure SSL for AdminServer and UCM managerServer.
after finishing this steps, access the UCM console to do the approve with siginature. but it always throw "can not find the validate certification path"
does any one know which step missing?
Thanks & Regards

Digital Signatures for cProjects Approval

Hi Folks,
I am on cProjects 4.5 and from what I understand there are 2 options for this based on whether or not I check the "Signature of Approval with User Certificate" box in Project Type config.
Unchecked - user is prompted for cProjects password and this works fine. Only issue for us is, we are on the portal and most likely cProjects password will be different and unknown to user. As per note 928527 this is standard behavior and tough luck for anybody on the portal.
Checked - use is given the ability to digitally sign the PDF approval document. When I select "sign" on the PDF I am given the ability to create a new ID or use an existing ID from a file, server etc. I created a new ID and signed the document. Once I do this and click the transfer button the system appears to hang. The progress indicator appears and keeps going.
Therefore my questions are:
1. Is there any additional config I need to do in cProjects. ADS or anywhere else?
2. How exactly does adobe digital signatures work? If anybody simply create a signature how does that provide any verification of authenticity?
Appreciate any help.
Thanks,
Lashan

Hi,
please see teh Configuration Content for cProjects 4.5 available in SAP Solution Manager and also as PDF attachment to SAP Note 1035436.
There it says:
Making Settings for the Approval
Use
You can use user certificates for digital signatures of approvals.
Prerequisites
● You are using Microsoft® Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher.
● You have a user certificate that is suitable for digital signatures (for example, the single
sign-on certificate).
● You have installed Adobe® Reader and Adobe Document Services.
Procedure
To verify the signature, enter the corresponding root certificate in the certificate list of the
Personal Security Environment (PSE, transaction STRUST). For more information, see the
documentation for the activity and the Adobe Document Services u2013 Configuration Guide NW
2004s on SAP Service Marketplace at service.sap.com/adobe u2192 Media Library u2192
Documentation.
In fact, what is described in the ADS documentation referenced above is that you have to install
the certificate also on the ADS.
Kind regards,
Florian
