E-Signatures

Sign specific configuration of your specification (baseline) with electronic signatures compliant with CFR Part 11 process from the FDA. The signatures can also be captured, and the information can be printed into a document.

Example:

  • Name of the signing Person
  • Reason for signing
  • Signature date
  • Role
  • Specific custom text
  • Approval comment
