Menu > Signatures enables you to collect signatures on a record in Lucity. Although these signatures are not legally binding, they provide an informal means for associating approval or authorization with record details.
Note: You can only add signatures to one record at a time.
Tap the Menu button and select Signature. The following dialog appears with a list of possible signatures that can be attached to this record:
Tap Capture next to the signature that you want to enter. The signature capture window opens:
The person giving the signature enters their signature:
Tap Cancel to close the dialog.
Tap Clear to erase the signature.
Tap Close to proceed with the signature. The following confirmation dialog appears:
Tap Reject to return to the signature dialog.
Tap Accept to approve the signature. The signature can now be used on any reports for this record containing signatures.
IMPORTANT: The signature will become locked on this record. You cannot edit or delete after you Accept.
Third Party-captured Signatures
Users have the ability to capture signatures on a Lucity record using a third party electronic signature application.
Collecting signatures from a third party application rather than from Lucity entails a different process, beginning with Menu > Reports in Lucity to export a document to the application, then importing that signed form into Lucity Documents.
Important: You must already have a report configured that includes space for collecting signatures.
Note: Reports signed using third party applications are attached to Lucity records as Documents. This is different than the process of attaching Signatures using only Lucity Mobile.
Note: This process could vary from device to device.
Export Signature Document from Lucity Mobile:

Import and attach signed document to a Lucity record:
Your device will open the Lucity Mobile application to a list of recently opened records.
Note: After selecting a file to import from an outside application, Lucity will ask you to select a recently opened record to attach the outside file to. If you have not recently opened the Lucity record to which you will attach the outside file, briefly open and close that record in Lucity before completing the steps below beginning in the outside application.
Tap the desired record to which you want to attach the signed report. Your device may return to the third party application to confirm the document successfully uploaded to Lucity.
Enter a Description (optional).
Tap Ok to proceed. A confirmation appears at the bottom of the screen to confirm "Document Uploaded Successfully".
Your device may return to the third party application. If desired, open Lucity Mobile or Lucity Web and view the file as a attached Document attached to your selected record.
Note: Reports signed using third party applications are attached to Lucity records as Documents. This is different than the process of attaching Signatures using only Lucity Mobile.
