Overview of the Security, Auditing, and E‑signature (SAE)
v2.1 module components
The Security, Auditing, and E‑signature (SAE) v2.1 module includes three components:
• SAE Administrator Console—Tool that is used by an SAE administrator to configure the SAE
module.
• SAE server (server)—Repository that stores SAE settings, user accounts, audit records, and
e-signature records. By default, the SAE server is installed on the same computer as the SAE
Administrator Console.
• SAE screens (client)—Screens that are displayed in an application (sign in, audit, and e‑signature)
and that require user input. The instrument software runs on the client.
The Security, Auditing, and E‑signature (SAE) v2.1 module provides the following SAE functionality on
the instrument:
• System security—Controls password policies, user sign in, and access to functions.
• Auditing—Tracks changes and actions performed by users.
• E-signature —Allows users to provide an electronic signature (user name and password) when
performing certain functions.
Depending on the way that your SAE administrator configures these features, you may observe the
following:
• Some of the features and functions described in other chapters of this guide may not be accessible
to you.
• Buttons may be inactive, indicating that you do not have permission to perform a function.
