Form guide with digital signature inside workspace

Hi,
I want to use form guides for user form filling, but also the resultant PDF form must be digitally signed. I'm presenting the form inside Workspace and as a part of workflow.
I've read Form Guides Getting Started document. There, it uses xfaForm type input variable for the process. As I know, xfaForm is data only. So it doesn't work when signatures are needed. I've tried to change the variable type to documentForm in the Sample Mortgage Loan Flex process, but with again no success. This time, on the second step of process, the form rendering on Workspace gave an error as follows:
TypeError: Error #1009: Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference.

To sum up: Can we use form guides for filling out forms that are to be digitally signed and sent to the next step in the process?
Thank you

This can be done but you must use the Document Form var to route the signed pdf. You must configure the FormGuide submit button to 'Submit from PDF' in Guide Builder.
Also the button on the form must be configured to submit as 'PDF' (not XDP). This change is done when you open the form in designer.
Note that after you have submitted the signed pdf you will be dealing with a pdf subsequently.

  • Alternative Solution for Form 16 with Digital Signature.

    Dear All,
    My Basis people have tried lot, but they have failed to set up ADS Server, for Digital Signature to be implemented for Form 16.
    Can anyone, please provide me with any other solution to get Digital Signature implemented may be via some Z programs or Z customizations. Kindly help me out, as this is an important requirement from the board members of my client. If I fail on this, it would be having some serious repercussions.
    Looking forward for an earnest reply. Please don't provide solutions related to SE78(Sapscript .jpg upload).

    Hi Experts,
    We are not using .pfx format for digital signature. For this reason we download Form-16’s from SAP & get it signed by using 3rd party tool. Now we want the form 16 to upload in ESS. Please let me know the process to upload Form 16 to ESS.

    Hi all,
    can anyone tell me if it is possible to send a PDF with digital signature from SAP in 4.6C?

    Thanks for the reference to the digsig user guide. I've reviewed this documentation and the majority of it I had already tried however one TIP that is in this document that I hadn't seen before points to setting up a FDF file to import AD secure to easily import the ID's
    More specifically, I have configured LDAP and the Security settings in Adobe Pro and when attempting to connect to our LDAP server is when I run into the issue. I am not able to connect. Is there any additional information that you know of that can shed some light on LDAP configuration with Adobe PDF forms for digital id's?

  • Jar files with digital signature -pl help

    Hi there
    is there anybody who will help me guiding step by step how to create a jar file (executable) with digital signature?
    thanks in advance.

    Sorry, digital signatures have nothing to do with decompilation security. The short answer is, there's nothing you can do about it. Search the forum for 'obfuscator', a lot of people have asked the same question.

  • Loading Invoice XML IDoc with digital signature via XI into R/3

    Hi,
    I received an Invoice XML IDoc with digital signature via Mail (for test purposes) and want to load it via XI into an R/3 systeme.
    My idea is to load the Invoice XML IDoc file via the File Sender Adapter into XI and send it to the R/3 system via the IDoc Inbound adapter.
    Due to the digital signature the file looks like this:
    0‚ S      *†H†÷
        ‚ D0‚ @   1 0       +      0‚ '      *†H†÷
        ‚   ‚   ‚ –0‚ ’0‚ û      etc.
    When I load the file like this with the File Sender Adapter, an error message occurs in the XI Monitoring as the XML Parser cannot read the file due to the digital signatur (as expected).
    Has anybody an idea how I can configure the File Sender Adapter Communication Channel to be able to load only the XML IDoc and ignore the digital Signature strings?
    Thanks in advance for your support.
    Alex

    BTW
    do use the second way you need:

  • Doc size with digital signature

    i've got 2 questions, please help:
    1) why do .pdfs with digital signatures have such large file size? how can i reduce the size?
    2) why do .pdfs with digital signature become text non-searchable?
    thnx
    brg

    actually the same signature size isn't such a problem when using Adobe software, but when using pdfCreator, the size increases... pls don't give me lectures on using another software, i need A5 and Adobe doesn't provide it...
    so i guess it's the problem within that other pdf maker...
    why i need to pdf print the file? one reason is i can print it ( otherwise signatures don' show, protection i guess), the other reason to protect the signatures that for that specific reason only need to be seen.
    thnx.

  • Problem with Digital Signature strategy in Document Managment System

    Hello ALL,
    I am facing problem with Digital Signature strategy in DMS. If any help its greatly appreciated.
    I have senario where Approvers in DMS will review the document and approve the document and put on their digitial signature. if i have multiple approvers maintained in the characterstics it has to check weather it has been approved by all approvers otherwise it has to reset the status to for approval.
    My problem is i am able to reset the status back from approved to for approval using the badi document_status01 but when the next approver logs in to the document and change the status to approved he is not able to get the digital signature pop up which it comes only first user approves it.
    can any one help me out on whats going wrong in it.
    Thanks
    Srikanth Aduri.

    Hi,
    maybe the reason for this is that the status of the digital signature is not changed. Then the system thinks that the digital signature is still completed and therefore the user is not getting the pop-up again. The database table for the digital signature for documents is TC77. I hope this information is usefull for you.
    Best regards,
    Christoph

  • Issue with digital signature

    I am having a issue with digital signature in Adobe 7.
    I was able to sign the document, but my name does not appear on the signature block.  I am using a certificate that is assigned to me, but my name never appears in the “signed by” field.  I did notice that the certificate is assignedto my email address not my name; Could that be what is causing this issue?
    Thanks

    Thanks for the quick response.
    I have tried that I click on the box to show "name", but it still never shows the name......

  • PDF Fill-in forms with Digital Signatures - LDAP, Roaming ID's

    Hello, my organization is trying to be more "Green" by taking regular PDF documents that use to be printed, filled in by hand, signed and then routed... To a PDF fill-in form that contains a Digital Signature Block. I can easily and successfully create PDF fill-in forms, where Im running into an issue is with the Digital Signatures.
    I can easily create a Digital Signature that is stored on my local computer and sign documents then forward them via email on to the recipient. However, what we would like and have been failing and making happen is to set up a signing server where the signer can fill out the PDF form and then sign the document by pulling their digital signature from a Directory Server, in our case LDAP or Active Directory.
    From the information that I have found on the web I know this can be done without use of expensive third party applications. However, I have not found information on how to do this other then this simple 3 line instruction which did not work for us. - http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Acrobat/8.0w/Professional/help.html?content=WS58a04a822e3e501 02bd615109794195ff-7d96.html

  • Fillable forms with digital signatures on SharePoint

    We have a Document Set content type on SharePoint that contains some fillable PDF forms. Users are filling it out and adding digital signatures. Some users have Acrobat Pro and some have Readers. Once in a while users get the error "The document has been changed since it was created and use of extended features is no longer available." and the form becomes unusable. After reading some forums I learnt that it happens if there is a major change in a PDF file. My users are doing the following: check-out a file from SharePoint, fill some fields, digitally sign and check back in. Does this qualify a major change in a PDF file? Is there any way to fix it or should we simply stop using PDF files for this?

    Yes, you should use Acrobat to enable the forms. A form enabled with Forms Central doesn't include the digitial signature usage right, but one enabled with Acrobat Pro does.
