E-Signature phase 2 - Asynchronous process and electronic record
Asynchronous process for electronic signature and generation of electronic record has been partially implemented. The electronic record and signature features are delivered in a phased approach.
You can use asynchronous process if record locking functionality has been enabled for the program. While for record creation, you can only use synchronous process. Asynchronous setting is overridden by synchronous. In the asynchronous process, only the fields that are configured for e-signature are updated once the electronic record is signed, not the other fields that may have changed simultaneously.
Events that do not trigger the e-signature process:
- Editing of records in list panel (B-panel)
- Copying of records
- Updates through API or Fnc-programs
In the synchronous process, an electronic record is created in 'Electronic Record. Open' (SES445) for 'Item. Open' (MMS001), 'Item. Connect Warehouse' (MMS002), 'Item. Connect Facility' (MMS003), and 'Product Structure. Open' (PDS001) programs. Support for electronic record in more programs is added later.
