Applied Biosystems QuantStudio 6 Flex User Manual

• Electronic signature (e-sig)—Determines if users are required to provide a user
name and passw
ord when performing certain functions. You can congure e-sig
so that a user can print a report or start a run only if the associated data are
signed. You can also congure each e-sig event to require multiple signatures and
to require users with specic permissions to sign.
Note: You can enable or disable electronic signature globally.
You can congure the Security, Audit, and Electronic Signature module in a variety of
ways. For example, you can:
• Require users to log in, and leave audit disabled.
• Allow only certain users to create or modify protocols.
• Allow only certain users to approve reviewed samples.
• Require experiments to be signed before users can run or print them.
