Implementing Digital Signature Strategy In Adobe Forms

Hi Everyone,
I need to know how to implement Digital Signatures with the use of Signature Strategy in my ECC 6.0 system..
Here is what i've done already,
1) Created a signature strategy with user authentication and registered the Signature Object in TA_SIGNO according to the document below.
[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0fbaa71-cd8d-2910-5982-e30626035400]
2) I have Adobe Acrobat 9.0 already.
3) Now, Ive added a Document Signature Field in my Adobe Form Layout too.
4) How to implement the Signature strategy i've created in this Adobe Form ???????????
Kindly share your ideas.

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.

Dynamically assigning digital signature strategy

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where I need to dynamically assign different signature strategy to document approval based on the number of approvers.
In our case for the same document based on the level of changes number of approvers might be different ( 3 - 12). We are planning to achive this by allowing document owners to select the approver using a approval workflow
I also know that there is a limition of 8 approver slots on the default signature strategy.
Please advise what is the best strategy in this case.
Thank You
Regi

Hi,
You can refer Note 700495 for digital signatures.
Thank You,

Digital Signature Strategy for Documents

Hi Experts,
We are trying to setup document signature strategy in our workplace. On the configuration part, we have followed all the requisite steps.Have defined Authorization group,individual signatures,signature strategy definition and sequence,user restrictions etc. However, we are still unable to execute the strategy. Please guide.

Hi James,
The configuration steps seem to be in line.
Propose you revisit and check if you entered both the first name and last names of the users for whom the signature strategy is to be enabled. Once done, you must be in a position to execute it without any hitches Do revert if the issue still persists.

DMS workflow and signature strategy

Hi Everybody,
          In one of my scenarios i am working on DMS, to implement signature strategy i created two roles called Manager, Designer. Designer is the predecessor for the Manager. I defined these all things in Signature strategy and they are working fine. But my problem is how to link these roles to the real-time users. I am working in IDES. In IDES we can do approval with any login. But in real time i wanted to link these roles to real-time users. One more question is how to link these signatures with organizational plan. Suppose manager changes for a particular designer. The request should go to new manager. Where to define these all things? Is there any relation for this question with organizational plan and Workflow?
        If any further classification needs please let me know ?
Thanks,
Rajesh.

Hi Pavana,
I need your help !!!
I am currently working on DMS in an ECR/ECO workflow.
All the documents need to be digitally approved. I am facing some problems ... here are some of these ...
Documents have three statuses and the it requires 3 parallel approvers.
RA - Ready for approval
IR - Initial release
RL - Final release
As soon as the document reaches status RA, it routes to the 3 approvers. So the first person signing the document changes the status to IR and then signs the document. The workitem then dissappears from his inbox.
Now the problem is - the work item dissappears even from other 2 approver inboxes.
I have used the method DRAW - EDIT in the task that gets signatures and the terminating event for this step is DRAW - CHANGED. I have used table driven dynamic processing to route the work item to 3 approvers.
My requirement is typically this: Workflow triggers when the document status changes to RA and routes it to the three approvers.
First approver changes status from RA to IR and then signs digitally when system asks him (we have set up signature strategy at IR status).
The second approver when he sees the document in his inbox sees the status IR and knows that the document is in approval process. He too signs the document.
Now when the third approver signs the document, workflow has to change the status to RL (final release).
I am completely new to digital signatures too - please let me know if u have any useful information/material/functions/programs covering DMS and Digital signatures. Please send them to my email id    [email protected]
Also let me know if u know if u have idea as to how to achieve the above said requirement.
Also one of the most important things I need info is linking signature authorizations and org model positions. Will u please elaborate on this????
Thanking U in advance

Difference between Approval process signature strategy and Workflow

Hi Everybody,
I just wanted to know the difference between the approval process and Business workflow. How both of them useful in PLM prospective ??
Thanks,
Rajesh

Hi,
Approval or digital signature process in PLM involves creating authorization groups, signature strategies and assigning individual signatures to signature strategy groups.For example, to create digital signature for Engineering Manager, you create authorization group say ENGMGR and define it as individual signature and assign it to a signature strategy group.
Business workflow is used to automate a business process.For example,it can be used in PLM-DMS for document review process.This can be triggered by status change(has to be defined in customizing) in document.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Pavana

Signature strategy

Gurus...
I want to design a signature strategy in which a DIR is processes through multiple users and finally gets the release status, and at each stage it has to be digitally signed.
Document status    / DIgital signature           /          Release status
IW (In work)            / --                                 /        --
T1(test status 1)     / consultant                    /       --
T2(Test status 2)    / User                             /      --
PA(Part approval)   / BPO                              /     --
RE (Released)         / Manager (Business)    /     Released
I tried several times..... each time for the all statuses it proposes only 'consultant's' signature...... on only one signature it gets released to the end.
I am using digital signature by SAP user id and passwords.
Please help.

Gurus.....
I tried the same by making four different signature strategies (e.g. T1, T2, T3 & T4) and assigned exactly one signatory for each of them. (e.g. T1-Consulatnt, T2-User, T3-BPO, T4-Manager).
After this for the document statuses I assigned these strategies as 'Test status 1' (T1), 'Test status 2' (T2), 'Part approval' (T3) and 'Released' (T4).
It works fine... but I dont think this is the way to do it....
This should happen through one signature strategy only, not four...
Please guide...

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

Digital Signatures in PI sheets

Hi Guys;
Can anyone explain how to assign Digital Signatures to PI sheets & what are the settings required.
Thanks in Advance;
Rajesh

Hi,
For Including Digital Signature in Browser Based PI Sheet You have to configure below mention Steps,
1) Authourisation Gourps
2) Define Individual Signatures
3) Signature Strategy
Path For Above is
SPRO -> Production Planing for Process Industries> Process Management -> Contorl Recipe/PI SHeet-> Digital Signatures.
Now creating Signature Strategy you have to assgin that Strategy in your Process instruction Catagory followed by Process Massage Characteristic PPPI_SIGNATURE.
Kindly followed The Below Link it will helpful to you for configuring Digital Signature,

ABAP base PI sheet & Browser base PI sheet

Hi
What is the differance between Browser base PI sheet & ABAP base PI sheet.

Hi,
Pls. find the details about ABAP based PI sheet & Browser based PI sheet as below so you can understand the difference between them :
ABAP List-Based PI Sheet
Definition
The PI sheet represents the result of a control recipe that was sent to a process operator and whose content is displayed as text on the screen. This means the PI sheet is an instruction for the process operator that describes how and in which order a product is manufactured. The PI sheet can, for example, contain information about the picking of raw materials as well as instructions about charging the mixer, filling silos, and so on.
The SAP PI sheet is designed for processing on the screen, which means that the process operator should enter, confirm, report, or complete data interactively. In this way, the SAP PI sheet enables communication between the SAP System (PP-PI) and process operators in production lines that are operated manually (either fully or partially).
Beside this conventional PI sheet, you can also create a browser-based PI sheet as of Release 4.6C. It has all the advantages of a browser-based application that is easy-to-operate and intuitive.
Use
Depending on the process instructions contained in a control recipe, the PI sheet supports the following functions:
·        Displaying control information such as instructions for the process operator on how to carry out production steps
·        Displaying additional notes, such as notes on specific rules that must be followed when dealing with dangerous goods
·        Recording of actual process data
·        Reporting of entered and calculated values using process messages, for example, posting goods issues and receipts or time-ticket confirmations
·        Navigating to other SAP applications outside of PP-PI to make entries and afterwards return to the PI sheet
·        Performing calculations, such as calculating dates
·        Triggering a dialog or requesting data from internal or external applications
For information about defining PI sheets using process instructions see Process Instructions for the PI Sheet. For ABAP list-based PI sheets you can use process instructions of the types 1, 2 and 4 to 7.
Structure
Each PI sheet consists of a header and a number of elements defined via the process instructions in the control recipe or by the process operator when he or she maintains the PI sheet.
These elements include:
·        Control information and notes with additional information for the process operator
·        Comments by the process operator
·        Input fields for the actual process data to be reported
·        Fields for values to be calculated by the system
·        Pushbuttons that enable the process operator to call user-defined function modules or the QM function for recording inspection results
The data contained in the PI sheet is displayed on an overview screen and various detail screens for the individual elements.
The following paragraphs provide details on the individual elements and their functions within the PI sheet.
For information on how to define PI sheets using process instructions, see Process Instructions for PI Sheets.
The PI sheet is made up of the following sections:
The Header
The header is shown at the very top of a PI sheet's overview screen. It contains information on the following:
·        The status of the PI sheet
·        The process order for which the PI sheet was created
·        The material to be produced
·        The process operator or group of process operators responsible for maintaining the PI sheet
The Phases
The lower section of the PI sheet comprises the phases. Depending on the content of the process instructions, they can contain the following information:
·        Control information
Control information for the process operator is displayed on the overview screen of the PI sheet. The information to be displayed is defined in a process instruction of the type u201Cprocess parameteru201D. In the PI sheet, the number of the process instruction and the corresponding phase of the process order is displayed before the control information.
·        Additional information
Additional information on a process step can be displayed on detail screens within the PI sheet. The information to be displayed is defined as a note in a process instruction of the type u201Cprocess parameteru201D.
On the overview screen of the PI sheet, one or more pushbuttons are displayed below the corresponding control instruction. You can use these pushbuttons to call up the information on the detail screens.
·        Comments
Within the PI sheet, the process operator can create comments on individual process steps. These comments can either be saved in a special comment sheet within the PI sheet, or they can be reported to process management using a process message.
The comment sheet can be accessed from the PI sheet's overview screen by choosing the corresponding menu option or the corresponding pushbutton in the header.
Comment messages always refer to a specific process step. If a comment message has been created in the PI sheet, the document symbol as well as the beginning of the comment are displayed to the right of the corresponding control information. You can display the entire comment on a detail screen.
·        Input values
On the overview screen of the PI sheet, input fields are provided for the actual process data to be reported. The values to be reported are defined in process instructions of the type u201Cprocess data requestu201D.
Single input fields are displayed to the right of the preceding control instruction. If several values of the same type are to be reported, a corresponding table is displayed below the control instruction and the other input fields.
·        Signature
A signature is a special type of input value that marks the end of a process step within the PI sheet. By executing a signature, you confirm and report the data entered or calculated in the process step. If you have made the corresponding system settings, you must execute a signature with a password or a digital signature.
Like any other input value, the signature is defined in a process instruction of the type u201Cprocess data requestu201D.
·        Values to be calculated
If you want the system to calculate a value in the PI sheet, a field for this value is displayed on the overview screen to the right of the preceding control instruction. If the value has not yet been calculated, the field contains a question mark (?). Values to be calculated are defined in process instructions of the type u201Cprocess data calculation formulau201D.
·        Inspection results
If inspection results are to be recorded for an operation or phase, the Record inspection results pushbutton is displayed in the PI sheet to the right of the preceding control instruction. Using this pushbutton, you can branch to the QM function for recording inspection results.
The operations or phases for which inspection results are to be recorded are defined using a process instruction of the type u201Cinspection results requestu201D.
·        Dynamic function calls
If an SAP function module is to be called within the PI sheet (for example, to access order confirmation or material quantity calculation, or to start a user-defined function), a pushbutton with which you can start the function is displayed to the right of the preceding control instruction.
The function to be called is defined using a process instruction of the type u201Cdynamic function callu201D.
Integration
To create ABAP list-based PI sheets, you must send your control recipes to a control recipe destination of type1 : control recipe transfer to SAP PI sheet.
Browser-Based PI Sheet
Definition
As of Release 4.6C, you can also create PI sheets in HTML layout. The browser-based PI sheet is an enhanced version of the ABAP list-based PI sheet. It offers a new user interface that is intuitive and easy-to-operate.
To be able to use the browser-based PI sheet correctly, you must install Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 5 or greater) and make a few security settings in the Internet Explorer. For more information, see Setting Up the Browser for PI Sheets and Cockpits.
The PI sheet represents the result of a control recipe that was sent to a process operator and whose content is displayed as text on the screen. This means the PI sheet is an instruction for the process operator that describes how and in which order a product is manufactured. The PI sheet can, for example, contain information about the picking of raw materials as well as instructions about charging the mixer, filling silos, and so on.
The SAP PI sheet is designed for processing on the screen, which means that the process operator should enter, confirm, report, or complete data interactively. In this way, the PI sheet enables communication between the SAP System and process operators in production lines that are operated manually (either fully or partially).
Use
Depending on the characteristic-based process instructions or XSteps contained in a control recipe, the PI sheet supports the following functions:
·        Displaying control information such as instructions for the process operator on how to carry out production steps
·        Displaying additional notes, such as notes on specific rules that must be followed when dealing with dangerous goods
·        Recording of actual process data
·        Reporting of entered and calculated values using process messages, for example, posting goods issues and receipts or time-ticket confirmations
·        Navigating to other SAP applications outside of PP-PI to make entries and afterwards return to the PI sheet
·        Performing calculations, such as calculating dates
·        Triggering a dialog or requesting data from internal or external applications
For further information on defining PI sheets using characteristic-based process instructions or XSteps see:
·        Characteristic-Based Process Instructions for PI Sheets
·        XSteps (Execution Steps)
When creating browser-based PI sheets, you can either use the standard layout defined by SAP or use your own layouts. For more information, see Layout Definition for PI Sheets and Cockpits.
Structure
The SAP Standard Layout
The following sections show you how the browser-based PI sheet is structured in the SAP standard layout and how the interface elements are displayed.
The browser-based PI sheets comprises a header and the individual phases of the process order. The header and all phases are open when you call the PI sheet and can be collapsed and expanded.
All functions are available in the context menu. In addition, a menu bar in the PI sheet header contains the functions that refer to the entire PI sheet. To display the context menu, you position the cursor on the corresponding field and use the right-hand mouse button. You can call the context menu using key combination Shift + F10.
The Header
The header is shown at the top of the PI sheet. It contains detailed information about the PI sheet that can be either hidden or displayed. If you click on the header, then detailed information about the header is displayed. The header contains information about:
·        The status of the PI sheet (test or active PI sheet)
·        Process order for which the PI sheet was created
·        The material to be produced
·        The batch to be produced if the material you want to produce is subject to batch management
·        The number of the control recipe from which the PI sheet was created
·        The number of the inspection lot if a QM inspection has been defined for the process order
The Phases
The lower section of the PI sheet comprises the phases of the process order. Each phase can be subdivided into several segments. Each time a long text is contained within a phase, a new segment is started, which is completed before the next long text.
Phases can contain the following elements:
·        Control information, notes, and input fields for long texts that are displayed on the left-hand side
·        All input fields, output fields, and pushbuttons that are displayed on the right-hand side.
·        Tables that are displayed over the entire PI sheet screen.
Interface Elements

Digital Signature in SAP DMS

Hello,
We want to implement digital signatures in SAP DMS, but we're not sure on how to accomplish it. We have the following scenario:
1. All the users have a digital certificate which is part of the Portuguese ID card;
2. Currently we're all using this certificate to digitally sign e-mails (they use their laptops integrated card reader), for example;
3. We also want to use this certificate to sign DMS documents.
Do you think the above mentioned scenario is possible without licensing additional software? If so, can you guide me through the customization steps?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Ricardo

Hi Ricardo,
It is quite possible to achieve your requirements using the digital signature strategy available in SAP DMS. I have previoulsy answered the steps involved [here|Digital Signature on Original File; and you may additionally look up [Wiki|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/Digitalsignaturein+DMS] and [SAP Help|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_470/helpdata/en/9f/857f3a1c7b11d294d200a0c92f024a/frameset.htm] as well.
In your case,more specifically,you need to adopt the signature method during customization as 'User signature with external security product with/without verification' for which your I-Card reader would also be required.

Combine .pdf's with digital signatures

Hi all
I can't seem to get this right. I have a set of Drawings (blue prints) that are signed as individual pages/.pdfs. I need to combine them into one file (not a portfolio), how can I make this happen?
Also - I do NOT need to keep the integrity of the signatures from the individual sheets. I just need to combine them with or without the seal/signature.

Adding the pages individually seems to work, adding them by highlighting and dragging over pushes the pages out of order. I am dealing with hundreds to thousands of pages. I’ll check to see how to Flatten.
Thanks!

Digital Signature only Release Status with 3(Approver) Signer

Hello SDN Folks
I have done all the basic settings for Digital Signature which is sawn in following link
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/PLM/Digitalsignaturein+DMS
it is work fine with 1 RE (Release) status and 1 Signer
We have in process to implement Digital Signature with only two Status
our scenario is
Document Creator Create Document With Status CR
Document Approver Approve Document With Status RE
now we have scenario that For 1 Document we have 3 Approver and 3 approver must digitally sign on DIR
our status is
only CR(create)---->RE(release)
so how i can attached 3 digital signer with only 1 RE(Release) Status
is it possible to go with 3 digital signer with only 1 RE (Release) Status ????
Regards
Tushar Dave

Hi Tushar,
Your requirement of utilizing 3 different approvers for a single 'Release' status in a document type/s can be addressed via the approach proposed below:
1.Define 3 individual authorization groups
2.Define 3 individual signatures
3.Define a common signature strategy
4.Assign the above 3 individual signatures to the common signature strategy
5.Define the signature sequence(the order in which the 3 approvers must approve)
6.Define users and restrictions(signature assigned to relevant approvers/users)
7.For the document type in question for the 'Release' status,assign the above signature strategy and test.
For more detailed information on using digital signature effectively,refer the below link

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.
