Electronic Signatures - PerkinElmer LabChip GX User Manual

Electronic Signatures

Based on a company's procedural requirements, creating and
saving data files may require a superior's signature. To sign a data
file, a user with signature permissions must enter a valid username,
password, and comment to explain the purpose of the signature.
When signing a data file, options are also available to set the file's
approval state to Unreviewed, Accepted, or Rejected, and to lock or
unlock the data file. (These options are only available if the signing
user has the appropriate permissions.) A signature can be added to
the data file any time, except while the assay is running.
