  • Where to laod the digital signature used to signform 16

    Hi,
    I'am working on Digital Signature for form16
    I configured SSL and ADS between JAVA and ABAP stacks.
    Now i got a demo digital signature.
    I'am confused where to load this credential and how to use it.
    Please guide me with a solution
    With regards,

    Unfortunatly the update server is having some very strange hicups every now and then. I've been able to reproduce this once on a sparc box. What I did was basicly running 'smpatch analyze' for a second time, followed by the regular 'update' command after which things worked out for me.
    Some strange things also occur when you sometimes run the 'analyze' command, and then run it again. Sometimes you'll be presented with 2 different lists of available updates.

    Since release 4.0A, the SAP system has provided digital signatures, to secure digital documents and business processes. Previously, such digital signatures were only available for selected positions in the SAP system. If a function was to be connected to further applications, the program code had to be extended according to the application. This is very time consuming.
    As of release 6.20, a standardized and flexible programming interface is available, with which the digital signature can be connected to any areas in both R/3 systems and other systems, such as APO, CRM, etc. In principle, no changes are made to the existing functions, and the following functions are added:
    The document to be signed is called up by the relevant application and forwarded to the signature
    refer following doc for more details

  • How can I create digital signatures for my users using Windows 2008 Active Directory Certificate Services?

    Hi,
    I need to create local digital signatures for my users. How can I do that using W2k8 Active Directory Certificate Services? We are gonna sign Office 2010 documents.
    What company offers cheap digital signatures solutions?
    Thanks in advanced

    Consider the following:
    if you use your local CA server to issue digital signature certificates, there is no cost, because you are eligible to issue so many certificates as you need. However, documents signed by these certificates will be considered trusted only within your AD
    forest and other machines that explicitly trust your local CA. Any external client will not trust your signatures.
    If you want to make your signature trusted outside your network (say, in worldwide), you need to pruchase a certificate from trusted commercial CA (VeriSign, GoDaddy, GlobalSign, StartCom, etc) according to respective vendor price list. In that case you
    don't need to have your local CA server, because it is not used. All certificate management is performed by the external CA. A most common scenario is to purchase signing certificate for particular departament principals (head managers) or few certificates
    for a whole company (all documents are revised by a responsible person or persons who holds signing certificate and sign them after review).
    so, it is not clear from your post what exactly you need.

  • Digital Signature HELP NEEDED!

    What would cause a digital signature to work for the desiger of a form, but not for the user??

    GJ,
    I am using standard XI and tried saving my form as a reader enabled PDF but the signature field is still not working in reader. will this work of is Pro required?

  • When trying to send a pdf for multiple digital signatures, it keeps erroring out.  What are some reasons?

    I am having trouble sending out a document for digital signatures for multiple people.  I enter the signature fields and click on Distribute.  It then allows me to choose the receiving parties.  I click on <SEND> and it processes for a moment and then I receive the following two errors:  "Failed to send" followed by "Form distribution is aborted".  It was working for me earlier and isn't now.  I am fairly new to Acrobat and especially Digital Signatures.  What are some possible reasons I am getting this error?

    I finally got the document to send out by unclicking the "Collect name & email from recipients to provide optimal tracking" button, however, the responses come in as anonymous, so it's not real helpful with tracking my responses.  Plus, I don't know if I'll encounter problems with follow up.  The normal tracking system allows me to resend a message to those who have not responded.  Now I guess I would just resend the request to those I have determined have not signed.  Still working through the bugs but I'll update what I know and figure out here.  Perhaps I will come to a solid solution and give a better summary.  
    As of now, I am sending and receiving responses... but the recipients have to change the received file to save as it is coming to them as read-only.  Seems like this should be a whole lot less complicated.

  • Hi, I am oracle apps HRMS Technical consultant.I wanted to know ,can we implement Digital Signatures in Oracle apps 11i XML Reports.if yes what is the approach to do so ? Your quick response is appreciated. Regards , Aasma Sayyad.

    Hi,
    I am Oracle Apps HRMS Technical Consultant.
    I wanted to know,if we can implement Digital Signatures in XML Reports for Oracle Apps HRMS 11i Aplication.
    If yes,what is the approach to do so.
    Your quick response is appreciated.

    Hi Aasma,
    The standard BI Publisher is part of EBS applications.
    Most of the EBS reports(R12) are based on BI Publisher.
    If you check the responsibility 'XML Publisher Administrator' you will see all the templates used in the application.
    Your technical team should already know this.
    On the other hand OBIEE would need separate licences.
    But for you BI Publisher would do.

  • What is the certification authority, the third party that can confirm the digital signature?

    I created a nice electronic signature, that I now regularly use and add to every document. I was told that a signature needs to be issued by a verification authority, a third party that is able to verify the signature, certificate. I created a free certificate at CAcert.org and tried to combine it with the adobe signature certificate file, but it doesnt support .cer and .crt files. Is the Adobe the certification authority in this case since i created signature in the Adobe software? Its not a big deal, I just want everything to be correct since I use the signature in official documents now (instead of scanning a signed document) ... Thanks for any info, ideas or help.

    Each Digital Certificate has a pair of private and public keys used for encryption/decryption. The private key belongs to the certificate owner and should be kept secret. It is protected by a password. The public key can be used by anyone. Digital certificates come in two flavors: one that contains both private and public key and one that contains only public key.
    When you create a digital signature the signing process uses the private key to encrypt the signed content digest and the public key is used to decrypt it. So, only you can encrypt signed content with your certificate that has both private and private keys and anyone can decrypt it to validate the signature using certificate that has only public key. Usually, this certificate with the public key only is embedded in the digital signature, so that anyone can use it for decryption.
    The .cer certificate contains only public key. Certificates with both private and public keys usually have extensions .pfx or .p12. You need one of those to sign.
    CAcert.org issues only public key certificates. so you cannot use its certificates for digital signing.
    Adobe is not a general purpose certification authority. It issues some certificates for internal use only.
    Acrobat has a feature that allows you to create so-called self-signed certificates with both private and public keys but these certificates can be used only in a limited way. They do not provide the means to authenticate the real certificate owner nor revoke a certificate if it is stolen.
    Generally, a digital signature asserts three main features:
    1. Document integrity (document has not been changes since it had been signed),
    2. Authentication (the signer is indeed what the certificate says)
    3. Non-repudiation (the signature author cannot deny that he signed it: this is achieved via certificate revocation mechanism).
    A self-signed certificate (of the type that Acrobat produces) can be used only for #1. It cannot be used for ##2 and 3. The latter two come only when a certificate (with private key) is issued by a reputable Certificate Authority which is trusted (like VeriSign, Symantec, etc.).

  • Digital Signature...what am I doing wrong?

    I have a signature block on my form, I bring the form into Acrobat Pro and extend features on the form to allow readers to sign it, I then distribute the form. I email it, fill it out, click on the digital signature block, it asks for me to sign the document, save as comes up to save to the pdf, then a pop-up comes up and says"This form is in a data collection overflow. To send your data back to the workflow initiator, please click Submit to ensure your data will be collected correctly.", I click OK, Send Form box comes up with email address and the name of sender, (it says Attachment is the pdf file, hit send, and email comes up with an xml file of my pdf that has a blank "To" (assuming this needs to have my email in it so I receive it).......my point is.......I just want the "pdf" I sent them to have the signature imbedded in it when they send it back, if they close the email (the pop up) and not send it, they go back to the form and the digital signature is now in the pdf I originally sent them, which is what I want, I just don't want to explain that they need to ignore the email popup, hope it is not too confusing.
    Thanks
    Mike

    Hi NMcneil123,
    What do yo mean by "will not work"? Do the people who try to sign your PDF file receive errors? Please describe the exact issue so we can figure out where the problem lies.
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • What is the use of Digital Signature in export release build for AIR applications

    hi Freinds..
    what is the use of digital signature identity  when we release build?

    Well obviously it is an Ant build.
    It looks to just compile/build a web application into a war so you can deploy it where you want to.
    You don't need to edit it every time you are making a new page. It should work for any generic struts web application laid out in the fashion it expects.

  • I forgot my digital signature. What do i do?

    I forgot my digital signature. What do i do?

    If you mean that you forgot the password for your digital ID, there's nothing you can do apart from remembering it. If this was a self-signed certificate that you created in Acrobat/Reader, you can make another.
