Hi experts, 

I wanna know whether we could develop a form design that's going to allow the user to draw his/her signature in the form. I came across the functions system.Drawing.Image used in microsoft code(Not sure whether it is used to allow the user to draw something in forms) but was not able to find any forms that would accept drawn signature from the user. 

Can you please let me know if this is doable in D365FO and if it is, Is there any standard forms currently has this functionality that I could refer to or any blogs would be helpful. Appreciate your inputs.

    Hi John,

    It is possible to create extensible controls in Dynamics 365 F&O. See Microsoft Learn: Build extensible controls - Finance & Operations | Dynamics 365 | Microsoft Learn

    Maybe you can find a component on the internet and build your own extensible control to achieve your requirement.

    Hi Anton, Thank you for your time in responding. Yeah, I was just trying to capture the drawing and save it in a bitmap. 

    Hi Komi, Thanks for your suggestion will look into it.

    HI John,

    Like Anton said, at the moment, drawing directly into a form on FO doesn't seem to be available. However, you can use the electronic signature feature.

    Hi John,

    I don't see any way of doing that on a Dynamics 365 Finance form nor do I know of any standard forms that allow that. I suppose you have to capture the signature and save it to the system?
