This option is available if your system includes a license for the Security, Audit, and E-
Signature module.
The Security, Audit, E-Signature module (SAE module) provides the following
functionality:
• System security—Controls user access to the software. A default Administrator
user account is provided, and additional user accounts and permissions can be
user-defined.
• Auditing—Tracks changes made to library items, actions performed by users,
and changes to the SAE settings. The software automatically audits some actions
silently. You can select other items for auditing and specify the audit mode.
Provides reports for audited library items, SAE changes, and actions.
• Electronic signature (e-sig)—Determines if users are permitted, prompted, or
required to provide a user name and password when performing certain
functions. Can be configured so that a predefined list of functions can be
performed only if the data used for the functions is signed (for example, you can
run a plate only if the calibration data for the system has been signed).
Example applications
You can configure the SAE module in a variety of ways:
• Require multiple e-sigs.
• Require specific users or users with specific permissions to e-sign.
• Allow only certain users to approve reviewed samples.
