eSign should be different

@brady.miller Below is an excerpt from a conversation about eSigning entire encounters.

"So the Delete Buttons do not show for the User

But the system lets you add components to the chart

There is an error message - - eSign Log - The data integrity test failed for
this form / but if a chart is locked you should not be able to add items

If there is an amendment than it should be added to the chart as a note. "
Dr. Kormanec, GMU

Is there anyone that can explain why the system works the way it does?

Thanks!

hi @juggernautsei ,

If we focus on the forms (and not encounter level signing), then it seems pretty intuitive. Create a form, save it, then sign it. After sign it, can no longer edit it, but can add an addendum to the end of a signed form and sign that. Is there an issue with that workflow?

Personally, I think every saved and signed note revision should be saved for history. Personally, I think should be able to modify/edit a signed note as long as sign it again (and the revision history of this is saved).
