How You Manage Refresh Document Signature Status

As a procurement application administrator, you can manage the Refresh Document Signature Status scheduled process.

The scheduled process retrieves the signature status of all purchasing documents currently sent out for signature, and updates their status in the application.

Settings That Affect the Refresh Document Signature Status Process

You can schedule the process to run periodically at a specified interval. To do this, from the Navigator click Scheduled Processes.

How the Purchasing Document Signature Status Is Processed

The scheduled process reviews the status of all in process signature packets for documents requiring signature. The status of the documents is updated in the application. The final electronically signed version of a purchasing document signature packet is stored in the application, and is used for supplier communication.

After the scheduled process is run, users of the Manage Agreements and Manage Orders work areas can view the following:

  • Updated signature status of a purchasing document.

  • Updated document signature history.
