14.1 Dialogs
Information area
Status change: The type of operator input that must be signed is specified in this area. Operator
action: Displaying the operator action
Conditions: This area displays the condition for which the entry of the electronic signature is
required.
● Entry: For example, "All at once" or "Individually".
All at once: This setting is displayed if you have selected the "All at once" check box during
configuration. This means that if more than one signature is required, all signatures must
be provided at the same time, in other words, in an open "Sign" dialog box.
Individually: If more than one signature is required, the signatures can be entered
individually; in other words, the signatures dialog can be opened several times on different
BATCH clients.
● Sequence: For example "Any" or "In sequence"
Any: This setting is displayed if you have selected the "Sequence" check box during
configuration. If several signatures are required, there is no fixed sequence.
In sequence: If several signatures are required per action, they must be entered in a specific
sequence.
Times: This area displays the time of the request for an electronic signature and its validity.
● Requested at: Time at which the signatures were requested.
● Valid until: Time by which all signatures should be entered. Not currently used.
