[Former Member]

Hi all,

I developed an Mobile application(7.1) in which signature capture should be there.

1)How to capture this signature and send it to the backend .

2)How I have to define the function module for this requirement?

Thanks and regards,

Hi Rajesh,

Adding to what Sujit mentioned above, the signatures have to be stored as attachements in the DOE and the backend. DOE supports attachment functionality and implementation details are explained in the following blog,

Hi Rajesh,

Here are the steps:

1. First, you have a signature capture tool. Most of the phones come with their own signature capture tools. For example, for Pocket PC - you can go to the MSDN site and then download the capture program.

2. The captured signature should then be stored as an JGP/ PDF/ or any version.

3. In your mobile application, you have to convert this file into binary format. This must be uploaded to the mobile middleware

In the mobile middleware, you must ensure that attachments are enabled. You can refer to this [link |https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?ath=/display/mobile/createapplicationsusingBinaryMemoandTextMemoinNetweaverMobile+7.1] for actions that you must do in the middleware and in the back-end.
