Document Automation

BIZHive DigiSigner

Autonomous PDF digital signing for business operations

The solution

Turn DSC signing into a background process

A Windows-based autonomous signing utility that watches your Inbox folder, applies your company Digital Signature Certificate, places an Adobe-compatible visible stamp at the correct position, and delivers signed PDFs to Outbox — without operator clicks per document.

BIZHive DigiSigner

Business challenge

Manual digital signing does not scale

Slow throughput

Opening each PDF, selecting a certificate, and signing one-by-one consumes staff time every day.

Inconsistent placement

Stamp position varies by operator — invoices and packing lists look unprofessional or miss expected zones.

Signatory risk

Wrong author name, missed copies, or packing lists signed without matching invoice authority.

Weak operational trail

Hard to prove what was signed, when it failed, and where originals were archived.

Pipeline friction

ERP/print exports still need a person in the loop — automation stops at PDF creation.

Growth bottleneck

As invoice and export volume rises, signing becomes a daily operational constraint.

Operating model

Four pillars of BIZHive DigiSigner

Unattended automation

  • Folder-driven watch loop
  • No dialogs during signing
  • Fits existing PDF export pipelines

Layout-aware stamps

  • Invoice / export / packing list positions
  • All pages or selected page
  • Adobe-style visible signature

Operational control

  • Archive & Error folders
  • On-screen live log
  • Machine-bound licensing

Authorised signing

  • Company DSC + named Author
  • Controlled signatory list
  • Consistent author across document sets

How it works

Five steps from configuration to signed documents

1

Configure

Set Inbox, Outbox, Archive, Error folders. Select DSC (Windows store or PFX). Choose Author / Signatory.

2

Start

Operator starts DigiSigner on the signing PC. The service watches folders continuously.

3

Drop PDFs

ERP, print pipeline, or users place PDF invoices / packing lists into Inbox.

4

Auto-sign

DigiSigner applies DSC + visible stamp at the calibrated position for that document type.

5

Collect

Signed files appear in Outbox. Sources go to Archive. Failures go to Error with log detail.

Software walkthrough

Folders, certificate, service and live log

  • Folders — Inbox, Outbox, Error, and optional Archive paths.
  • Certificate — Windows Certificate Store or PFX, plus Author / Signatory.
  • Service — Start / Stop, poll interval, visible signature, status.
  • Activity log — Live OK / FAILED / HELD outcomes.

Capabilities

What DigiSigner does day to day

Folder Watcher

Continuously polls Inbox and signs PDFs as soon as they are ready — no manual queue management.

Certificate Options

Use Windows Certificate Store (eToken / DSC) or PFX/P12 file certificates.

Visible Adobe Stamp

PKCS#7 style stamp: Digitally signed by, Date, Reason — familiar to auditors and customers.

Doc-Type Layout Engine

Stamp position tuned per document type (invoice, export invoice, packing list) and page policy.

Multi-Copy Invoice Sets

Supports Original / Duplicate / Triplicate / further copies from standard file naming.

Authorised Signatories

Shared company certificate with named Author; controlled signatory list for governance.

Packing List Consistency

Matching document number reuses the invoice Author; premature packing lists can be held.

Live Operational Log

Operators see OK / FAILED / HELD outcomes in real time for shop-floor visibility.

Per-Client Deployment

Dedicated build locks licensed company name and stamp geometry for that customer site.

Document intelligence

Right stamp. Right page. Right signatory.

INV

Tax / Commercial Invoice

Stamp positioned for invoice layout; all required pages signed; multi-copy sets supported.

EXP

Export Invoice

Portrait/export layouts with calibrated stamp zone for customs and buyer packages.

DLC

Packing List

Author aligned to matching invoice document number; hold-until-ready when needed.

Business benefits

How DigiSigner improves operations

Speed

Seconds per PDF instead of repetitive manual Adobe/cert signing cycles.

Scale

Handle peak invoice and export volumes without adding signing headcount.

Accuracy

Stamp lands where finance and customs expect it — every copy, every time.

Consistency

Same Author across invoice copies and related packing lists.

Less rework

Fewer misplaced stamps, missed pages, or unsigned package sets.

IT simplicity

Windows utility + folders + certificate + Start — no complex middleware project.

ERP-friendly

Works with the PDFs you already print/export; no forced ERP replacement.

Governance

Archive trail, error handling, licensing, and optional signatory control.

Ideal fit

Organisations that…

  • Generate high volumes of PDF tax invoices or export invoices
  • Need DSC / Class-3 style digital signatures on outbound documents
  • Want consistent stamp placement across multi-copy invoice sets
  • Need packing lists signed with the same authority as the matching invoice
  • Prefer a folder-based utility that fits existing ERP/print pipelines
