Adding Signatures
 |
This article or section is under review. Be aware: Content may change as the document is reviewed. |
You can add signatures using your finger or a stylus in both Platinum Online and Platinum Mobile. To add a signature, tap on [Add Signature] at the end of the list of images in Platinum Online, or [Add Signature...] underneath [Add Photos...] in Platinum Mobile. This will open a new screen with a large box where you can enter a signature, and a few other fields:
- The dropdown above the signature box allows you to choose some text describing what is being signed for. See below for how to add your own disclaimers and set per-module defaults.
- "Name" is for recording who is signing.
- "Date" is prefilled with today's date and time.
To clear the signature and start over, press [Clear] at the bottom right of the signature box. When you are happy that everything is correct, press [Send] to upload the signature to your Platinum system.
Adding Signature Disclaimers / Types
You can add your own custom disclaimers and have them appear in the dropdown on the Add Signature screen as follows:
- Go to " Reports & Settings Maintenance Options System Administrator Groups, Types and Categories Add or Edit Signature Types".
- Press <F6> or [Add].
- In "Signature type", enter the code for the disclaimer.
- In "Description", enter a brief description for the disclaimer.
- Press <Esc> then [Accept] to accept your changes.
The new disclaimer will appear in Platinum Online & Platinum Mobile the next time you log in. If you are already logged in, you will need to log out and back in again.
Setting the Default Signature Disclaimer / Type
You can set a default disclaimer that will be selected automatically for each module with an Image Manager in Platinum Online.
- Go to " Reports & Settings Maintenance Options System Administrator Platinum Settings".
- Search for 'Signature'.
- Find the module for which you want to set a default, and press <F5> on "Default signature type".
- Enter the code of the disclaimer you want to be the default selected option, or alternatively press <Ctrl+F1> to search for a disclaimer if you don't know the code.
- Press <OK>, then <Esc> and accept your changes.
The new default disclaimer will be set in Platinum Online & Platinum Mobile the next time you log in. If you are already logged in, you will need to log out and back in again.
