5.2     Applications tab

This tab offers configuring programs that are executed at the end of a Governikus DATA Boreum's function. On the last dialog of Governikus DATA Boreum's functions "Sign", "Validate", "Encrypt", and "Decrypt" it is offered to choose a program from a list of programs, which you have configured here. The result files that are created on this last dialog are directly passed to the program selected and further processed with this program. The following choice is always available:

·     No subsequent processing: Governikus DATA Boreum executes no further process after the selected function is terminated.

·     Sign: After executing the selected function, the files are passed the "Sign" function. Is not available for the "Sign" function itself.

·     Validate: After executing the selected function, the files are passed the "Validate" function. Is not available for the "Validate" function itself, makes only sense after signing.

·     Encrypt: After executing the selected function, the files are passed the "Encrypt" function. Is not available for the "Encrypt" function itself.

·     Decrypt: After executing the selected function, the files are passed the "Decrypt" function. Is not available for the "Decrypt" function itself, makes only sense after encrypting.

·     E-Mail: After executing the selected function, the files are passed to that program on your computer that is registered for handling e-mails.

·     Print: After executing the selected function, the files are passed to the default printer. This is only possible if an association exists for the file type and the printer program. You can check whether an association for printing exists by selecting a file of the file-type in question in your file explorer and calling the context menu. If an association exists, the option "print" is listed in the context menu.

·     Open: After executing the selected function, the files are passed to that program on your computer that is associated with the respective file-type. If no file association exists, you can select a program from a selection menu.
