Enabling electronic signatures for approval. Electronic signatures are helpful if you
must obtain a digital signature for compliance or auditing purposes.

## Vorbereitungen

Role required: admin

## Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

You can activate the [Approval with e-signature plugin](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Qr09hLr0mDAnv~AFt7Apxw "Installing approval with e-signature installs certain properties.") to require that users type in a user name and password when reviewing and approving documents.

The digital signature is not tracked or stored in the document record. Users must
simply type in a user name and password after clicking the
Approve or Reject button.
