Signature Capture

Creating a Digital Signature

To create a signature file, complete the following steps:

1. On 8 ½ by 11 sheet of paper, draw a rectangle about inch by 3 inch to represent the size of a signature
2. Print as many copies of the box as there are signers plus one
3. On the first sheet, write the word “SIGNATURE” inside the box
4. Ask each signer to sign their name within the rectangle, one signature per page
5. Scan all images (including the first one that just said “SIGNATURE”)
6. Crop the signatures using the same settings each time Save image files
7. You should have several image files with the same dimensions

Adding the Signature to GP

Open the Mekorma Signature Signature Library window
(Mekorma Area Page > Setup > System > Signature Library)

Choose Import and browse to select the signature image file you wish to use on your checks and click Open

Signature files can then be assigned to one or more companies.
In the Available in Company section of the Signature Library window
check the box next to each company that the signature will be used

Thresholds are optional

Thresholds do we need them?

When the business determines signatures will automatically be printed
based on the dollar amount of the payment

If the plan is NOT to use a Threshold then leave it at:

From $0.01 To $99,999,999,999,999.99

Mekorma GP Task Based Security Signature setup

Open the Mekorma Threshold Maintenance window (Mekorma Area page > Setup > System > Threshold Maintenance) and select a Threshold ID At the Default User/Signature (1 and or 2) the lookup opens the Mekorma Signature Files Lookup Note the icon named User ID is a dropdown

If you select User ID the Signature assigned to that User ID will be used

If the Signature option is selected that signature will be the default

Troubleshoot signature topics and issues

I have setup my checkbooks to print the new signature. Why does the old signature still print?
How can I delete a signature from the Mekorma Signature Library?
Where are the signatures stored?
The signature is not printing

How can I override the business logic to suppress the signature from printing?
The signature line displays on the test check, but doesn't print on the "Live" check.
The signature (or logo) on the check is fuzzy.

Does Mekorma Encrypt Electronic Signatures?

Recommend practices for the use of image files
The signature sits on top of the EFT VOID field, is that a problem?
Will a Troy printer work with Mekorma MICR?
