Electronic Signature (Not Digital Signature)

Digital Signature Certificate is very expensive.
Can I implement or create Electronic Signature in InfoPath 2010 or SharePoint 2010 Workflow?
It seems Collect Signature in SharePoint Workflow working on Digital Signature only.
Please help.
Thanks a lot.

How do you integrate Electronic signature to be printed on page / form ?
Are you using any application which converts electronic form into digital or some other form ?
In SharePoint ootb way there is no way to integrate electronic signature, but yes we have option for digital signature.
For electronic signature I found one article (obviously third party), not sure if this fullfils your requiremewnt or not

Document collaboration: attach a written (not digital) signature

Hello, hoping the community can give me some pointers to automate a process.
I am currently part of a business process that requires me to receive a document, affix my written (not digital) signature to it along with a date, and pass it on to the next person. My current workflow is to receive the .pdf, print it, sign it with a pen, re-scan it into a .pdf, and send it on to the next person. I recognize this is a waste not only of time but also of paper and ink, as well.
I have a Wacom digital tablet that allows me to make pen inputs, like a signature. How can I use Adobe Acrobat to sign the document in Acrobat using my digital tablet and pen, skipping the requirement to print it, sign it with an ink pen, and re-scan it? I suspect it may have something to do with layers in Acrobat, but I'm an Acrobat newbie so I'm not too smart on it.
Thanks for your time and help!

There are a number of options. A common thing to do is create a custom stamp, so you can easily apply it whenever needed. For example: http://blogs.adobe.com/acrolaw/2007/02/creating_a_tran_1/
You can also use the Pencil commenting tool. This is what is used when (in Acrobat 9) you select: Advanced > Sign & Certify > Apply Ink Signature
It is a good idea to then flatten the signature so other users can't easily modify it. For this you can use this handy JavaScript-based utility that lets you selectively flatten annotations: http://www.uvsar.com/projects/acrobat/flattener/

Signature 171 Digital Signature Error

When I install signature 171 to IDSM2's using VMS 2.3 I get: An error occurred while running the update script on the sensor named IDS-C1-B. Detail = An error occurred at the sensor during the update, sensor message = idsPackageMgr: digital signature of the update file was not valid, use CCO to replace corrupted file
The update of the VMS management center and security monitor worked OK. Does anyone know it this signature zip file is really corrupt?
I re-downloaded and replaced the file in VMS, but still got the same message.

Upgrading a sensor via VMS is part of our standard testing procedure for a new signature update and it passed the test!
Unfortunately, for some reasons, the checksum of the file published on Cisco.com doesn't match the checksum of the file we have tested.
My apologies for any inconvenience it could have caused, we are working to have this fixed asap!
I'll post again once this has been done.

Creating and using a digital signature - Not Working / Help Please?

I have Acrobat X Pro (10.1.11). I am trying to setup a digital signature that is either a scan of my own signature, or a digital version that looks like hand writing. I've gone through a number of help documents and I am still getting something different. What I get is a Printed Name with some text next to it (i.e. Digitally Signed by "my name" DN: cn="my name, o, ou, e-mail, etc.".
Anyone have any idea how I can start from scratch and create a digital signature that I can simply place on PDFs that looks like my siggy?

I believe you are confusing digital signature and digital signature appearance. You can create a custom appearance and use it in your signatures. Go to Edit->Preferences->Signatures->Creation & Appearances->More... In the Appearances section in the bottom portion of the dialog select "New" button. Configure Signature Appearance dialog comes up. In the Title field you enter the name of this appearance. In the Configure Text section of the dialog you check which values you want to have in the text part of the signature appearance (you can deselect them all). In the Configure Graphics section you can select one of the radio buttons. "Imported Graphics" allows you to browse to the file that contains your scanned signature (or your picture ). "Name" will place your name as it appears in your signing certificate.
Then when you sign a PDF in the "Sign" dialog click on the down arrow in the Appearance: section next to the displayed appearance name (out-of-the-box is says "Standard Text") and you'll get a drop-down list that contains the name of the appearance that you created. Select it and that will be the appearance of your digital signature. This same drop-down list contains "Create New Appearance..." item which when you select it allows you to create a new appearance in the same way as I described in the first paragraph.
After you select your appearance it will show up when you sign again.

How can I create a form requesting a digital signature at the end?

I'm looking to create a form for a meeting that allows attendees to fill out their address and pertinent information as an agreement and at the conclusion of the form give them the option to sign electronically/digitally.
How can I do this? Is Adobe Forms the best program for this?

Hi,
Unfortunately, digital signatures are not supported in Adobe FormsCentral.
In order to collect signatures from the attendees, you can either use Adobe EchoSign to collect electronic signatures or Adobe Acrobat to get the documents digitally signed.
Please follow the links to know more about the services:-

Adobe Acrobat:- PDF converter, PDF editor, convert to PDF | Adobe Acrobat XI Pro

Can't create a digital signature with acrobat 8

We have acrobat 8. My husband has a digital signature but when I try to electronically sign, his digital signature pops up and does not give me the option to create my own. How can I create my own digital signature on this software?

I don't have Acrobat 8, but in Acrobat 7 & 9 it's under "Advanced > Security Settings", which prings up a window where you can add a digital ID.

Does the iOS app allow for digital signatures ?

does the iOS app allow for digital signatures ?

Hi,
Currently, Adobe Reader mobile products (for iOS, Android, Windows Phone) do not support digital signatures. But you can add handwritten signatures (as annotations) to PDF documents.
For digital signatures for legally binding documents and contracts, I'd recommend the desktop version of Adobe Reader or Acrobat Pro/Standard. Alternatively, you can use Adobe EchoSign for e-signatures.

Visible digital signature on different pages

We assemble closing documents which individually require a visible digital signature. We would like our client to sign only once the pdf document containg all such documents (resolutions, receipts, agreements, notices, etc) but have the visible digital signature show up at the various pages that require signer's approval. Is there a way to have such signature place holders preconfigured for a specific signatory that only signs (electronically) once the document ? If so, is it also possible to have mutliple signatories with multiple place holders in a lenghty document ? I use Adobe Pro 9.2.
Thank you in advance.

This is a common question, but I'm afraid it's almost certainly the wrong question. It usually comes from trying to translate a system of paper signatures into digital signatures without really examining how different they are.
The key is that digital signatures always, without exception, apply to the whole document. Yes, they might have an appearance on one page, but that is of no importance - in fact I think appearances should be banned because they lead people into the trap of looking at the page to see if it is signed - but this is trivial to fake, and of no security value.
If you have a need to overlap a paper based and digital system, you could use a stamp (not a signature) on each page, THEN sign.

Using digital signatures in SRM 7.0

Hi!
Anybody know where I can get any presentation/documentation/book about using digital signatures in SAP SRM 7.0?
I found only some places, but these places have no good information:
1. Only one page on help.sap.com ttp://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/EN/e1/8907209b5444958508c460ba6635d8/frameset.htm
2. Help in SPRO
3. Some forum threads without complete answers...
Whether somebody tried this functionality?
Thanks for answers,
Eugeny

I also see other way, special for SRM functionality:
SAP Implementation Guide -> SAP Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server -> Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Digital Signature -> Activate Digital Signatures
Here (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm70/helpdata/EN/e1/8907209b5444958508c460ba6635d8/frameset.htm) I see following phrase:
"The digital signature function is a web-only function. In other words, it can only be run in a browser".
Whether means it that all certificates must be stored on the application server in the keystore database and user can't use any electronic keys like Alladdin eTocken on own computer?

Digital Signature on Original File

Hi Friends,
I have a requirement which I am explaining below:
There are various status for a document and workflow is triggered for each status. I want to add the Diginal signature of person after he approves / select the status for that document thru workflow on Original file.
If there are multiple pages on the original file I want to add the Diginal signature of person on each page. And also I want to put stamp on below the signature on each page.
Can it be possible. If so Pls. let me know how to do or where can I get the material.
Regards,
Sai Krishna

Hi Sai Krishna,
Yes, both your requirements are feasible to achieve in SAP DMS but via different approaches.
1. For implementing digital signature, the steps are as follows:
Configuration section:SPRO>Reference IMG>CA Components>Approval
-Define individual authorization group
-Define individual signatures
-Define signature strategy
-Define individual signatures to the above signature strategy
-Define signature sequence(if there are more than 1 group involved for approval)
-Define users and restrictions(signature assigned to relevant users)
-Define document status(of document type) or which signature strategy must come into effect
NOTE: Digital signature is status driven(hence its not possible to have it for each original part as desired by you)
2. For implementing stamp feature
Stamp feature is part of 'Redlining Tools' suite.You may add stamp by clicking on the stamp icon in Redlining Tools section of a original(in the edit mode). Provide the necessary details that you need to appear in the stamp. After creating the stamp, from the Favorites section choose the stamp needed and insert the same onto the original drawing.
Hope this helps.

Digital Signature of Invoices (Portugal)

Hello,
We have an issue in customizing of relatives notes Digital Signature of Invoices (Portugal), because the key of table SIPT_NUMR_SD_V is only number range number, and we need the company code as table key, because on exit RV60AFZZ we have establish the same number range for each company code and document type.
For example:

Anyone had this issue for different company code assigned to same number range intervals??
Thanks and regards?

Hello,
Sorry I cannot help directly with this, but I have a similar problem.
I have configured a number range into the SIPT_NUMBER_SD_V. This is an SD Number Range based on the SD Invoice Type.
These invoices normally pass into FI as an RV Invoice Type using an External Number Range (so the FI Invoice gets the same number as the SD Invoice).
When I create an invoice in SD, it will NOT release to FI (VFX3). The error message complains that the FI Number Range is not defined in table SIPT_NUMBER_FI_V. But the Customising says that this table is only for Invoices created directly in FI with Internal Number Ranges.
The Customising advises that the FI BTE SIPT should be switched on with BF11. This triggers FI to expect FI number ranges to have an entry in SIPT_NUMBER_FI_V. But this BF11 functionality should only affect FI Invoices created directly in FI with their own number range. I t should not affect SD invoices transferring into FI.
Any advice welcome please ! ! !

Digital Signatures will not show when combined in one PDF

I have multiple PDF's with digital signatures. I'm combining them into one large PDF for distribution. The problem I'm having is the digital signatures are not showing up when I combind into one PDF. I need the digital signatures to show up because they make the document (s) official. To sent all the document out indivdual make it unmanageable and is over 300 sperate PDF's

It is not true. Most documents have pages numbered (like "page 1 of 5"). I never sign documents that do not have this page numbering and each page initialized. This way you cannot add/remove pages in a printed document without forging initials. Electronic documents (PDF) enforce this rule automatically.
