Signing reports on the iPad

Set up report placeholders for creating a signature field

These placeholders enable direct signing within the iPad app, contributing to the report's final output:

• {{signature-NAME}} - Displays a signature field during report creation, which is then output in the final report.
• {{signaturename-NAME}} - Creates a text field for the signer's name during report creation on an iPad, which is then included in the report.

NOTE: As these placeholders can be used multiple times within a report template, it's crucial to differentiate them. The "NAME" segment of the placeholder is meant to be replaced with a meaningful description, specifying the location in the report where you intend to display the specific signature and name.

For instance, consider setting up a report with two signature and name fields using the following syntax in the template:

These placeholders are included in our default report template, "Daily Protocol".
