fined default reasons. A further comment can also be entered.

priate rights.

2.3.2 Procedure for electronic signatures
Program part: Database
Determinations exhibit one of the following three states in relation to sig-
natures (see flow diagram):
￭ Not signed
Determinations which are not signed can be deleted and changed, a new
version being created at each change.
￭ Signed (1)
When signing determinations at Level 1, no new versions are generated.
If determinations signed at Level 1 are changed, a new version is gener-
ated, which no longer contains any signatures. Determinations signed at
Level 1 can be deleted.
￭ Signed (2)
When signing determinations at Level 2, no new versions are generated.
Determinations signed at Level 2 can neither be changed nor deleted.
However, it is possible to delete the signatures (2), whereby the signa-
tures (1) are retained.
