SigningHub provides complete visibility of your document sign-off progress in real-time across multiple devices. There are multiple audit trail options through which you can track your document and account-related transactions.
The "Workflow history" option provides a soft copy of workflow activities related to a selected document, which is sufficient for your audit trail record. However, when you need to present these workflow details in hard copy as legal proof outside SigningHub, use the workflow evidence report. A Workflow Evidence Report entails the detailed logs (including Audit Trail) of each SigningHub transaction performed within a document workflow, in the downloadable PDF format. It is also digitally signed by Ascertia with an invisible PAdES-B-LT signature and is available only to the respective . So in case a recipient in the workflow repudiates their signature, or if there is any query related to the workflow, this report can resolve all such issues. However, viewing the Workflow Evidence Report is subject to your assigned enterprise user role. To use this provision, ask your Enterprise Admin to enable it in your . If your Service Plan is configured accordingly, then the Workflow Evidence Report will automatically generate when the workflow is "Completed". In addition, the document logs will be removed from the Workflow History dialogue box, and the details will be added to the Workflow Evidence Report under the Audit Trail section.
Click the 'Documents' option in the navigation panel.
Select a completed document, and click the 'Evidence report' option in the information panel. The workflow evidence report will be downloaded to your local 'Downloads' folder as a PDF.
In the workflow evidence report, based on the selected delivery method for each recipient, either their email or mobile number shall be shown.
The workflow evidence report of a replicated workflow will show that the workflow was replicated.
The workflow evidence report PDF contains an invisible PAdES-B-LT signature.
The workflow evidence report PDF is available for completed documents only.
The Workflow Evidence Report will only be generated when it's successfully signed.
Under the Workflow History details, "Signature Authorization" displays the authentication profile name along with the username and email address of the recipient. This user information only appears for the following authentications:
Email/Password
Office365
Azure Active Directory
SalesForce
The availability of the Workflow Evidence Report is subject to your subscribed service plan. If you cannot find this option, contact .
SigningHub maintains a log of each action performed on a document with the respective date and time stamps. In case, your Service Plan is configured for clearing the document logs, then the document logs will be removed right after the workflow is "Completed" and the Workflow Evidence Report is successfully generated. In case, you continue to perform actions (like opening and closing the document package) even after the workflow is completed, the activity will be reflected in the document logs accordingly and retained until the document package is deleted. These logs are available to the respective Document Owner only if their role is configured by the Enterprise Admin accordingly. In case, you cannot find the Workflow History option, contact your Enterprise Admin to enable it for you.
