If there is an error in the format, the file is rejected.
The compliant file appears in the grid of the files to sign.
For the files associated with it, the signature contract defines the next steps of the signature cycle. The contract specifies the certificate and the automation of the post-signature transmission. The management of the signature contracts is linked to specific rights.
