After a document you have sent has been digitally approved, you can validate the signature and the signed content.
The footer of the approved document contains the names of those who have
digitally signed the document and the time and date of the signatures.
It may take a few moments for the documents to be digitally signed.

you may need to download the document to view it in your PDF viewer.Go to the footer of the document to see all users who have digitally signed the document as well as a date/time stamp.

About digital signatures
A digital (or electronic) signature is an alternative way to formally and legally sign a document, and is covered by
the Australian Electronic Transaction Act of 1999
New Zealand Electronic Transaction Act of 2002. See also: Digital signatures fact sheet (NZ).
In addition, MYOB has explicitly sought approval from government bodies
that our clients deal with (ASIC, ATO and IRD) to ensure that we don't
have any issues with the acceptance of our digital signatures by these
industry bodies. For more information, see Do ASIC accept digital signatures?
