Adding electronic signature fields to the issue
Electronic Signature Fields app contains the following custom fields for signing tickets:
- Logged User Validator Field - validates username and password of a system user according to Title 21 CFR 11.
- User Validator Field - validates password of a currently logged in user according to Title 21 CFR 11.
To configure the User Validator or Logged User Validator field, perform the following steps:
- Go to Jira Administration > Issues > Custom fields and add a new custom field.
- Select User Validator or Logged User Validator, and click Next.
- Give a name and description to your field and click Create.
- Select issue screens where you want your field to be visible and click Update.
As a result, you will have the electronic signature field on the selected screens, and users will have to enter valid credentials when editing tickets.
Locking signatures after a number of failed login attempts
This feature is available starting with version 2.0.1 for Jira 8 and above.
- Go to Jira Administration > Add-ons > Electronic Signature Fields > Configuration.
- Following settings are optional but they allow you to change credentials validation rules.
That's it. Electronic Signature field will now be validated according to selected settings.
