In difference to other solutions the Aloaha Software can use numerous smartcard typeS native. So you do not need any card drivers from third party vendors.

How the Aloaha Multisignator works

The invoices which need to be signed are simply copied into a folder on the harddisk. This can be done automatically by your accounting software. This folder will be monitored by the Aloaha Multisignator and all files in this folder will be signed and e-mailed automatically. The recipient addresses can be read out of the PDF file itself or can be given by a command file from your accounting software. If required the e-mail itself can be signed, too. For huge amounts of outgoing invoices up to 10 cardreaders can be used at the same time.

The signature of incoming invoices can be automatically checked and if the signature is broken the user will be informed.
