You can add a control of type Signature capture to a form. Use this control to capture a signature on a mobile device and get it saved as a file. The resulting signature capture file is stored in the file store.


Standard procedure

1. Click Mobility design.
2. Click the Forms tab.
3. In the list, find and select the desired record.
4. Click Edit.
5. If you add a control, it is positioned before the selected control on the form.
  On the preview, select the desired control.
 

Note: If the control list is shown instead of the preview, in the list, find and select the desired control.

6. On the Properties tab, click Add.
7. Click Signature capture.
8. Sub-task: Define control properties.
  8.1 In the Control field, type the signature capture control name.
 

Note: Only use letters and numbers, no spaces.

  8.2 You can use a label for the display name of the signature capture control.
If you use a label, do not define a Text.
  In the Label field, enter or select a value.
  8.3 In the Text field, you can enter a free text as display name.
If you use a Text, do not define a Label.
  In the Text field, type a value.
  8.4 By default, the signature capture control is shown on the form.
  If you want to hide the signature capture control on the form, select No in the Visible field.

10. To show the added control on the preview, on the Design tab, click Refresh.

Notes

  • In the event procedure, you need an action, with related class, to link the captured signature to the related record in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Operations.
  • In general, if you add a form control, it is positioned before the selected control on the form.
  • Where the control is exactly positioned on the preview, also depends on:
    • The Append new line property of the previous control and of the added control.
    • The preview style sheet.
  • You can use the Up and Down buttons on the Properties tab to move a form control to another position on the form.
