"Validate" is the last dialog of the validating function. The list contains all of your selected files. Click on the "Validate" button below the file list to start the validating function. The files are validated one by one.
|
Note: Above the "Validate" button, the URL to the Validation Service is displayed, as configured in the settings dialog. Prior to validating please check whether this setting is still correct or whether it was manipulated. |
Special case validating certificate files
Certificate files are used for signing, encrypting, and decrypting. You can also validate these certificate files with Governikus DATA Boreum's Validate function to get information about their validity. They usually have the file suffix cer or cert. If you load a certificate in the file selection dialog and click the "Validate" button on the last dialog page of the function, a dialog requesting the validation time is displayed. Please mind that this dialog is only displayed for the validation of certificate files.
The current date and time are pre-set as validation time. You can change the validation time. The validation process checks whether the certificate was valid at the given time.
· Actual time: If this checkbox is selected, the current time is used as the test time. Only if you deselect this checkbox, you can enter another date.
· OK: Clicking OK processes the validation with the validation time you have filled in. If several certificate files are in the file list, the selected time is used for all these certificate files. The dialog is not shown again in this validation pass.
· Cancel: If you cancel the dialog with the X in the upper right corner of the dialog window the current time is used for validating the certificate file. If you have uploaded several certificate files the dialog is displayed again for the next certificate file in the file list.

The list-display
The rows of the list-display consist of the following columns:
· File: Displays the file name. The entire path and file name are displayed when pointing the mouse pointer to the file name. Double clicking displays the file.
· Status: This column displays the processing status of the file. The following status are possible:
- New: The file wasn't yet processed;
- Working: The file is currently processed;
- Finished: The processing is finished;
- Error: While processing the file an error occurred. If you point your mouse to that error, a tooltip shows the cause.
· Result file: After successful processing, this column holds the path and filename of the inspection sheet. The inspection sheet is saved in the target directory either as HTML- or as PDF-file, settings see chapter 5.7. The inspection sheet is described in chapter 6.5.5. Visualising validation results:
- : The green bullet with the OK hook shows that all inspections have a positive result.
- : The yellow bullet with the exclamation mark shows that at least one inspection could not be executed.
- : The red bullet with the cross shows that at least one inspection had a negative result.
· : Clicking on the magnifier button displays the inspection sheet. If you have selected PDF for displaying the inspection sheet in "Extras - Settings - Validation tab" the PDF viewer registered with your computer is called. If you have selected HTML for displaying the inspection sheet the inspection sheet is displayed in your default web browser.
Result file already exists
In case of detecting a file of the same name as the result file in the target directory, the "Target file exists" dialog is displayed. You can now choose whether to overwrite the existing file or rename the new result file. While renaming the file, the current date is added to the file name as prefix. However, you can as well cancel the execution.
Upon completion pass files to the following program or printer
Select a program from the list below, to further processes the result files or select to send them to the printer. The default is "No subsequent processing". The selected program is directly invoked with the result files as parameters. In case the option is not checked the program-list is greyed out. The program list contains all programs that you have added in the "Processing" tab of the settings dialog, see chapter 5.2.
Please mind, that for Mac OS only standard functions are available. Passing files to programs given in "Manage application" does not function for Mac OS.
|
Note: You can as well select this option after the files are processed. Select the program, and click the right-arrow symbol Attention: All result files are passed to the succeeding program. |
Last dialog of the "Validate" function
On the last dialog of the validate function, below the file list and the succeeding program list, the path to the Sign Service is displayed. In case you haven't selected online validation the message "Online validation is deselected" is displayed. Click on the "Validate" button to start the process.
