We offer our customers the possibility to easily archive transactions. It is possible to archive transactions per ValidSign 'sender' or to archive them at organization / department level.

The great advantage of the Archive module is that you no longer have to archive your documents per transaction. The files are prepared by us in a zip file. The zip file contains both the signed documents and the evidence summary.

The transactions disappear from your ValidSign account when your archive documents are prepared by us for download. From that moment on, you have 14 days to download the documents. After the 14 days have passed, the documents will be permanently deleted from our server.

 

How does it work?

  • You can monitor the status of the archiving request on the “Requests” tab
  • If the archiving request has been completed, the request will be returned the following day in the dashboard at the tab Ready to download "Request". One night will pass before your request is ready.

The archived transactions are kept on the server for 14 days. The transactions disappear from your ValidSign account from the moment the archiving request is completed. From that moment on, you have 14 days to download the transactions from the Archive module. After the expiry of the 14 days, the documents will be permanently deleted from our server.

Note: The archive request must be extracted using WinRAR or 7-Zip. If you extract the request with Windows Explorer, documents may be missing from your request.
