Good evening
I think that a digital one should be OK because that is how my last (contract) employer (a large US-based multinational) has been doing it recently. But, in outline,: - only specified people must be able make the insertion - the chain of authorities from the CEO (etc.) to the person(s) actually inserting the digital version must be very explicitly defined, and the latter needs to inform the former person of exactly what is being done on each occasion the signature is to be used, and, possibly, will need to receive the authority before it is actually inserted; - the electronic process for insertion of the signature must very carefully controlled, and the insertion must be permanently logged on the system in question. Don't think that a scanned version would be very good because of possible miss-use of the image.

That's crazy. Since you are making one at a time per customer order. I don't see it's so crazy to have a 'dynamic' DoC. After all, you have a different invoice for each unit you ship. so why is it difficult to have a (mildly) different DoC? Of course, you store electronically. -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
