Default Document Properties: Enhanced Validation (Electronic Signature)

When this feature is enabled, both here in Document Properties and in the document template, a user must enter his or her user name and password (an electronic signature, in effect) in order to complete a task such as marking a document as read, accepting a document in review, or approving a document. In the case where a kiosk computer is the point of general PolicyTech access under a generic service account, this feature provides verification that the intended user has completed a task.

Important:

Enhanced Validation can also be enabled or disabled on document templates and individual documents. See Template Setting: Enhanced Validation and Optional Settings. Changing the Enhanced Validation setting in Default Document Properties does not affect this setting in existing templates and documents. It will, however, become the default setting for new templates.
The Enhanced Validation option is not applicable if single sign-on has been enabled.
Enhanced Validation is not available for stand-alone questionnaires.

Select Require users to re-enter log in credentials when completing a task to turn on enhanced validation.

The screenshot below shows what a user will see when marking a document as read if enhanced validation is required.
