Digital Sign Off of Operation Subtasks
Explanation
You can sign off an operation subtask
using digital sign off when the site is set up to use digital signature. This is compulsory in order to
close an operation where the Sign Off Required field has been set to
Required to Close Operation. This procedure is normally
performed by a shop floor worker. It is possible to revoke the digital sign off.
IFS Signature Service requires the users to use an additional authentication
device, YubiKey, for digital sign off. More information on the set up of
digital signatures can be found here.
