Question:

The error appears when a user tries to complete a task with Manifest eSignature on document required mostly during the approval process.

The user encounters the following error: You do not have the required e-signature permission to complete the task.

Answer:

This article is addressed to users with Admin rights.

The error prevents the user from completing the Approval task and progressing the document. It occurs when the feature Workflow --> Signature is not enabled in the user's Security Profile.

The workaround to rectify the error involves a configuration change, enabling the eSignature feature in the relevant Security Profile.

This way, all users listed under this Security Profile are granted the ability to apply eSignatures to documents.
