Signature capture can be set up for the registration process, the check-in process, the check-out process, or any combination of the three. The setup is identical for all three processes.

- Select the ‘Registration,’ ‘Check In,’ or the ‘Check Out’ tab as you choose. Select the ‘Capture signature’ or the ‘Scan fingerprint’ option as you choose and then select the ‘Configure’ button:
- Select how you want the signature to be saved.

- Select the field you want to use and then select the ‘Insert’ button:

You can store the filename in the database if you choose, simply select the field to store the filename. Select the ‘Ok’ button:
- Select the ‘Ok’ button to save the changes:
