Add Users and groups​​ ​

In order to create a signing order in the Trust Portal, a person/caseworker must be registered and assigned write permission to one or more groups

Groups form the basis for separation in groups within a company. Groups within the Trust Portal have the following properties:

  1. ​Any signing order will belong to one specific group.

  2. A User may be defined with one of three possible permissions for a given group:

  • Write: User can create, view, and change signing orders belonging to the given group.

  • Read: User can view signing orders belonging to the given group

  • None: User have no access to create, view, or change any orders for the given group (while creating users we have none but in group setup only read and write)

Users​​​​​​​

A user can be registered in the Trust Portal with National ID No (SSN), CVR and RID, PPI or email and password.

​Add new user with National ID No. (SSN) or CVR-RID​ 

Go to menu item in upper right corner and click on “User administration”. Then press the button for “Create new user” and a new page will show. Fill out information about the user and select “Create”. “Reset” will clear the form without saving.

The following information must be filled out for a new user:

  • Select service and company

  • First name

  • Last name

  • E-mail address (must be unique)

  • Select type of eID

  • National ID number or CVR and RID (based on chosen eID)

Based on which type of eID chosen, you will be presented different fields to fill out. Note that if your company has no access to login with Country Specific eID, it's not mandatory to fill in National ID or CVR / RID fields while creating a user.

  • ​Register a new user using National ID: National ID number is the User’s identification number, referring to “Fødselsnummer” in Norway, “Personnummer” in Sweden and “CPR-nummer” in Denmark.

  • Register a new User using CVR and RID: CVR and RID is the Employer ID and Employee ID used in Denmark. In additional if you choose eID MitID Business, you also need to fill out the users PID number. This number you can get from MitID.

 

Create new user with option to log in using Login with Username/Password 

SSN and CVR/RID fields are optional if "Log in with Username/Password" is enabled for your Company. When the user is created, an email will be sent to the users email address, containing a link to set a password. Note that users email address must be unique. 

​Connect new user to existing group​​​ 

When choosing correct company for a new user, additional page information will show. Here you can add the user to an already existing group and choose users permissions for the given group (write/read/none). You can also check for if the user should be a super user for your company and check for “grant read access to all groups” for this specific user. Then press save.

​​​​​​​Search and edit user​​

Go to page "User administration" at upper right corner. By default, ALL is selected for service and company, and if a particular user needs to be searched for, then start entering the name in search field and click enter​. Choose a user from the list and edit.

​​

Using “Detailed Control of Notifications”, you can configure the internal notifications in more detail. Only the notification types that has been activated, and for which an email template has been defined, will be submitted for internal notifications. See "E-mail templates"  below for details. ​ You can select different email addresses for the various notification types. You may also assign multiple email addresses per notification type. In addition, you will be able to select how many days before expiration the reminder notification for a signing order shall be sent. The setting “Number of days before expiration”, also controls the external notification, but will only be used if there is an email template defined for the external notification. 

Selecting the “Override external notification” option will cause all external notifications to be sent to a pre-defined address instead of to the Signer (Private market configuration) or Customer contact (Corporate market configuration).

There is one more setting related to external notifications. This is the setting controlling how many days before expiration the reminder notification shall be submitted. This setting is defined together with internal notifications, as described below.

Configure E-Signing

Trust Portal allows some of the general settings to be edited by a Super User. Go to menu item Administration at the top menu and then choose Configure E-Signing. The following settings are currently available:

Function ​

​Description

General information to signers

It is possible to add short general information to the Signers that will appear in signing flow. 

The information is entered in the form of a heading and text. You may see a preview of the dialog by clicking the preview button. 
In order to apply any of the changes you make, click on the bottom save button. 

Upload logo to the portal

Customize the portal appearance by adding a Company logo.​​​

​Drag and drop the file or click on browse in order to upload a new logo. A preview of the logo is shown, but a better verification will be to inspect the new logo in the top left corner of the page, as the change is implemented immediately.

Selected logo is also used in the signature dialog for Signers.

​Identification before signing

If "Identification before signing" is enabled for your Company, a Super User can select these options:

  • Identification before signing is mandatory for all orders.

  • Identification before signing is optional for all orders.

  • Identification before signing is off for all orders

If Identification before signing is set to mandatory, all orders will have this function enabled. If the function is set to optional, case workers will be given the option of adding Signing before identification for any order.

Note: If your Company has not requested the Identification before signing functionality, your Super Users will not see this menu.

​Allow personal message

​By setting the “Allow personal message” to “Yes”, each user will be able to add a personal text to the notification message being sent to the Signer or Customer Contact. This will require the external notification email template to include the personal message merging field.

​Default eID

​In case your Company has requested access to multiply eID types, you can select that one of them shall be set by default when creating a new signing order, thus reducing the number of parameters required for creating the signing order.

Depending on which eID types that has been activated for your Company, the valid options for the default eID setting are “Not Selected”, “BankID (NO)”, “BankID (SE), «Bank IDs (FI)», “Nets One time code”, “Verimi”, “Nets Passport reader”, “MitID”, “MitID Business” and “Nexus DA”

​Configure order name

​By setting “Configure order name” to “Yes” the system will auto-populate the order name field from the document name. If you set it to “No”, the caseworker needs to fill in the Order name manually

​Personal notification to caseworker

By setting “Personal notification to caseworker” to “Yes” you let the caseworker choose (at create order page) to receive personal notifications about a signing order

​Allow PDF form

​By setting “Allow PDF form” to “Yes” you let the caseworker create a signing order containing PDF form. If the attached document is a PDF form, specific fields need to be filled out while creating the order, like add the checkmark to indicate it is a PDF form and then add instruction text in the field. 

Note: If  the check mark for PDF with Form field is not added, the order will be created as a normal PDF and the signer will not be able to add any information 

Allow multiple documents

 By setting this to “Yes” the caseworker can create orders containing multiple documents. Set to “No” you are only allowed to create orders with only one document to be signed.

​Allow to provide signer role

​By setting this to “Yes” you allow the caseworker to add a signer role when creating an order, either by choosing a predefined role or enter a customized role. This is optional when the function is enabled for the portal, meaning that for one signer you could add a role and for another you don't fill out the field. 

Login type​

​Here you can see available login types for your company. If both login types ("Login with country spesific eID" and "Login with Username&Password") are enabled for your company, you will see both. By selecting one/both, you provide access to the users to use given login type for your company.  

As a superuser you can restrict users to not use any of the login for your company. If "Login with Country Specific eID" is not selected, then none of the users can access your company when they login with country specific eID's. Same goes for "Login with Username & Password".

Note:  The logged in login type is always disabled and you cannot make changes to that login.  If you have logged in to the E-Signing portal using country specific eID's, then you cannot make changes to this.

If you fail to provide access for any of the login types, you can contact ING Admin at support.​

​Signer receipt external

​If you select the Signer receipt external option, all external Signers will receive an e-mail receipt with original and signed document attached. The original unsigned document is a PDF document while the signed document is an SDO file or a Signed PDF (PAdES). The signed PDF sent pr email to external, will never contain SSN.

​Signer receipt internal

If you select the Signer receipt internal option, the internal recipient (defined in the group internal notification list) will receive signed and approved notification with documents attached in an email. The original unsigned document is a PDF document while the signed document is an SDO file or a Signed PDF (PADES). 

  • If your company has enabled "License for national identification number" (by ING Admin) you will get these options if you choose to receive Signed PDF :

    • Include SSN: SSN for all signers will be displayed in an extra line in the Signed PDF

    • Hide SSN: SSN will be removed from "Identifier" for those eID's where this is SSN (BankID SE, FTN )

  • If you have disabled License for national identification number in the portal (set by ING Admin) you will not get above options, and existing, standard view will be used. SSN will be removed from "Identifier" for those eID's where this is SSN. 

Redirect after completed signing

If you would like to automatically redirect the Signers to a specific web page, you may enter a valid web address for this setting. If you leave the field blank, the user will not be redirected. 

After the Signer has successfully signed the document, a 10 second timer will start to count down, and the Signer will be redirected to the selected web page. ​The user may also click on the “Click here to continue” button in order to go to the selected web page before the timer reaches zero seconds.​


Company signature

If your Company is registered with Company Signature enabled, a Super User can select from one of three settings related to this:

  • ​No: Company Signature is not allowed in any order​

  • Optional​: User may enable Company Signature per order​

  • ​​Required: Company Signature is set for all orders

In case your company has access to eID types from more than one eID-provider, you must also select which eID type to use for company signatures.

Note: Company signing will be disabled when used in combination with PDF Form signing.​

Include SSN in signed document

 If set to “Yes” we will automatically include signers SSN in PAdES if it is signed by using BankID (NO), MitID or MitID Business

Recover signed pades

If Recover signed pades is enabled for your company, the super user can enable/disable the service.

Enable SMS

 If Enable SMS is enabled for your company, the superuser can enable/disable the service

Deadlines

​A Super User can set default dispatch date and signing deadlines to be used for all created orders. This will prevent the User from seeing this information when creating an order. 

If Override is checked the caseworker cannot modify signing deadline in create order page and if unchecked, then caseworker can edit the details. 

Dispatch date: Today to 14 days 

Signing deadline: 90 days from today​

​​ID-Rights​

​​If the ID-Rights service is enabled for your company, the Super user can enable/disable the service for the company by clicking the checkboxes for applicable country.​ Super user can also decide which country should be default at search page if the company has more than one country available.

In addition, Super user must give each user specific access, by clicking check-box ID-Rights at Admin->User page.

​​​​

Add a logo to be used

It is possible to customize the portal appearance by adding a Company logo.​​​

​Drag and drop the file or click on browse  in order to upload a new logo. A preview of the logo is shown, but a better verification will be to inspect the new logo in the top left corner of the page, as the change is implemented immediately.

E-mail templates for notifications​​

​In order to send out notification for signing orders, an email template must be created for each type of notification. It is possible to create several different templates for the same type of notification, and you then assign the various templates to different groups. There are 7 notification types, and they may be defined for both internal (inside your company) and external (ex. the signer) recipients. At the E-mail template page, you can create new templates or configure already existing templates, like edit, delete and connect to groups.

​Edit existing templates​​​​

You can delete or edit any of the templates by click on the right-side buttons. Any template can be assigned to more than one group.  ​When selecting Edit for a specific template you can edit type, subject, content and attached groups.

Archive templates​​

Archive templates are available for customers configured with access to ING Archive services. Multiple templates can be created, and they can be utilized in order to better ensure that the signing orders are created with the correct archive indexes, and the caseworker doesn’t have to fill inn every single detail when creating a new signing order.​

​A Super user has three main settings available at the top of the Archive template menu:

Function​

​​Description

​Use archive templates

​If No, the case worker will be required to set all Archive settings when creating a new signing order
If Yes, the template is used and caseworker doesn't need to fill inn details

​If no matching document name, use default template

If Yes: ​If the document uploaded by the case worker has a name that does not match any of the archive template names, the default template will be used. However, if the default template has not been enabled and configured, the case worker will not be able to continue registration of the signing order. In this case, registration of a signing order will only be possible if the uploaded a document name matches one of the archive template names

​Allow the case worker to select archive template

​If No​: Each archive template is assigned a template name. If you don’t allow the case worker to select the archive template, the template name is used when the case worker uploads a document for a new signing order. The uploaded document name will be checked for matches against any of the registered archive template names. The matching test is done on the uploaded document name up to the first full stop, “.”, punctuation mark

Create archive template

In order to create an archive template, click on the “Create new archive template” button.  Enter a name and also choose from one of the archives available for your Company and after entering required configuration click on save.  Next you will see the archive field configuration table, as shown below. The content of this table will strongly depend on the E-Archive settings defined for your Company.​
