20. Electronic Signatures
When an electronic record that requires a signature is
created or modified, a signature block is presented at the end
of the transaction
To apply an electronic signature, the user must successfully
enter an identification code and password
In addition to processing the transaction, MFG/PRO
establishes a signature event ID, captures “snapshots” of the
electronic record data, and stores this information in a
protected state together with name, date & time of execution
and the meaning of the signature
Medical: 21 CFR Part 11.1(c):
– “…the agency will consider the electronic signatures to be
equivalent to full handwritten signatures, initials, and other
general signings as required by agency regulations…”

21. E-Signatures – Our Solution
