Let signing trigger follow-up: retrieve the document, update records and check processing.

From product to process

How to use the integration

Request → signature

Start the agreed signing process and follow up its available outcome.

Supply the complete document

Bring the document and all required source-system information together. Supply the complete document for signing and link the outcome to the right case file.

Handover & return

Connect staff changes to equipment handover and confirmed return.

Combine into one controlled process

Data → rules → execution
  1. Combine

    Request + document + case file

  2. Determine & check

    Check data and choose the right route

  3. Execute & report back

    Create document or signing request · Process outcome · Update case file

Check sources and rules, test changes and track the outcome. Manual tasks get an owner and confirmation.

Build visually. Manage easily.

Reuse building blocks, adapt your process and test the change. Manage it yourself, together with us or let Scope4mation take care of it.

For example. Also with other teams, suppliers and applications.

Verify. Inform. Report.

What is complete? Who needs to act? Which exception needs attention?

Start with one integration, register or check. Build on the same data and rules.

Onboarding

From employee change to a complete start.

Service Automation Suite connects IAM to the wider employee workflow. Use a matrix in Service Automation Suite to relate roles to access, assets and tasks, for example. Combine those rules with current HR and TOPdesk data and agree who maintains the matrix. This determines the changes and actions needed.

Activities, accounts, handover & signing

  1. Combine available information

    Use the HR change and current person, access and asset data. Forms or reviews supply missing information and exceptions.

  2. Let the matrix define the route

    Service Automation Suite applies role profiles, conditions and effective dates. Start or update the TOPdesk change with appropriate activities for HR, IT and facilities.

  3. Execute, confirm and update

    Connect account and group actions to asset handover and confirmation. Include ValidSign signing and file storage where needed. Return outcomes to the activities.

  4. Complete the loop with HR

    Once the account is created, write agreed account data or status back to AFAS or the chosen HR source. The TOPdesk activity receives the same outcome. HR and IT no longer need to copy or chase confirmation separately.

  2. Connect people and systems

    Coordinate approvals, manual tasks and available system actions.

  3. Record the result

    Record which steps are complete and where someone still needs to act.

Sign for equipment

Equipment handed over. Receipt confirmed.

An employee joins or changes roles. Connect the HR change to a laptop or phone handover and request digital confirmation of receipt, for example through ValidSign. Service Automation Suite brings the employee, asset, document and follow-up together. Configuration follows your rules and the available interfaces.

Confirmation & records
ValidSignTOPdesk

For example, digital signing and evidence linked to the asset

  1. Define the equipment handover

    Use employee and role data from the chosen HR source. Check the assigned equipment, required approval and handover owner. Link employee and asset to the same request or activity.

  2. Request confirmation of receipt

    Prepare a receipt or equipment loan declaration with the correct employee and asset data according to your rules. Start a signing request in ValidSign, for example, and track the available signing status. Sending a request does not mean receipt has been confirmed.

  3. Store evidence and follow up exceptions

    After confirmed signing, store the document or its reference with the correct asset and record, for example in TOPdesk. Assign an owner to declined or expired requests and missing data. Configure feedback to HR only where available and agreed.

Under the hood

How to connect, test and manage the integration.

For administrators who want to understand how it works: connect ValidSign to your other applications, map the data and use the response in the next step. Configure it centrally in Service Automation Suite.

Example configuration · shaped by your process

Connect a document request to the correct record

  1. Connect and test

    API Composer

    Choose the API method, URL and authentication. Manage the host and credentials in an environment. Test a request in Discovery and inspect the fields actually returned by the API.

  2. Combine and compare

    Data Flow Composer

    Select fields, translate codes and relate records using shared data. Compare source and target to identify new, changed or incomplete records.

  3. Execute and use the response

    API Composer

    Build the request body from validated data and inspect Body Preview before testing. Use the result ID in Data Context for the next request or save output to an entity. Configure write-back separately.

  4. Recognise errors and follow up deliberately

    API Composer

    Configure error rules by HTTP code and/or message. A temporary API failure can use bounded retries. A missing relationship or rejection needs another route: record the cause and configure a verification task for the appropriate team, for example.

Which data do you maintain?

An example configuration, not fixed field names or a mandatory combination.

Record ID, document and recipient
Validate the agreed data and record its relationship to the external request.
Request reference and status
Use the available API status for follow-up, distinguishing completion, rejection, expiry and technical failures.
Document and confirmed outcome
Store the available result with the related record. A sent request is not yet a completed activity.

Sent ≠ processed. Use the response and agreed validation to determine the next step.

Need to publish data yourself?

Use Endpoint Composer to publish a configured Service Automation Suite data object. Choose read and write methods and security profiles so a customer can retrieve agreed service data or a supplier can submit information, for example. Configure data selection and subsequent processing separately.

Endpoint Composer
From data to a complete process?

Combine the integration with a form, a shared matrix, a review or collaboration between service teams. For example, an approved request leads to execution in Microsoft Entra, a ValidSign signature request and feedback in TOPdesk. Your process determines the steps needed; not every use case requires all these components.

Explore the connected building blocks

Configure once. Build on the same foundation.

You do not need to rediscover the same authentication, customer relationship or field mapping for every connection. Reuse environments, requests, sequences and shared tables. Build the next use case on that foundation. Configure additional API actions yourself, subject to the API and your permissions.

Beyond the first integration.

Use the same data and rules in your next process.

Start with one use case. Connect customer, employee and asset data, for example, and agree which source is authoritative. Reuse those relationships, a matrix where needed and configured actions in the next workflow. Agree who maintains the data and rules. Expand without repeatedly connecting and maintaining the same information.

Signature declined. Keep the process moving.

A request awaits a ValidSign signature. Declining, expiry and technical failure each need different handling.

Combine
Link the request, signing request and document. Read the available status and apply agreed conditions to determine the next action.
The outcome determines what follows
Signed: process the document and confirm the activity. Declined: route the reason to the owner. Temporary technical failure: retry only under the configured error rule.
The benefit
Appropriate follow-up for each outcome without counting a sent signing request as completed work.
Temporary access, with the end handled too.

Additional access is approved for a limited period. A checkbox alone does not preserve why, for whom and until when.

Combine
Connect identity, approval, expiry date and the available access action. Reuse the same data for a scheduled follow-up check.
The outcome determines what follows
Revocation confirmed: record the result. Extension requested: ask for a new decision. Not revoked: raise the exception with the authorised group rather than silently completing it.
The benefit
Fewer forgotten exceptions and a traceable relationship between approval and actual access.
A different name does not mean a new record.

A person or organisation has a different name in the source than at a customer or supplier. Matching text again can create incorrect or duplicate relationships.

Combine
Retain verified identifiers and source rules in a shared table. Reuse the relationship for requests, tickets and other integrations.
The outcome determines what follows
Known key: use the relationship. Multiple candidates or a missing identifier: request review. Once confirmed, reuse the established relationship.
The benefit
A consistent data foundation managed by your team instead of investigated again for every connection.

Your process needs more than a standard action?

Configure the missing API request, input and output in API Composer. Use its response in the next step and combine it with data tables, forms and automations. Extend the same product and reuse the configured building blocks.

Use Service Automation Suite to update a ticket in TOPdesk, for example, with fields available through its API, such as category, priority, status and support group. For another application, configure its request and field mapping. The outcome determines the next action: confirm, add information or request review, not merely check whether the request arrived.

Build it yourself: explore the technical approach

Need to publish data or let others submit it? Endpoint Composer exposes a configured Service Automation Suite data object with selected methods and security profiles. Other building blocks handle subsequent processing.
