Breakdown of a signEZ command's constituent parts:
<notes.ini path>
Full OS path of the notes.ini file (this is optional, but strongly recommended as to prevent an incorrect notes.ini file from being used)
<server>
Server name where the signEZ database is located. Leave empty if server is local.
<database path>
Path to the signEZ database relative to the server data directory. This can be an absolute path if you're using a local server.
<command>
Action to perform. See next table for details.
<NoteID>
Note ID of the document. Must be a hexadecimal value. See the specific commands below for more information.
Commands available and explanatory notes:
-be [-si | -st | -id]
Execute a signature settings batch document This command is the same as clicking theExecutebutton in theSaved Settings viewof your signEZ database when one-or-more signature settings batch documents are selected in the list:<server><db> -be <noteID> Use-siif you want to use an different ID to execute the signature settings batch document. You will be prompted to select an ID in pop-up dialog box. This command is the same as theExecute with another IDbutton in theSaved Settings viewof your signEZ database:<server><db> -be -si <noteID> Use-stif you want to use the stored ID given by the Notes.ini (stored in the line "YtriaSignEZSignUsingStored") containing the NOTEID (in decimal) of the document (in the signEZ database) containing the stored ID. This will detach the stored ID into the <Notes Data Dir>/ytriatemp.id ::<server><db> -be -st <noteID> Use-idif you'd like to batch execute using an ID file. This uses the ID stored in the Notes.ini entry for "YtriaSignEZSignUsingID":<server><db> -be -id <noteID> For all-becommands,the 'noteID' must refer to a document in your signEZ database(which you maycreate manually using scanEZor create by code)with the following values:
1 Note: By default, signEZ will delete this document once the command has completed. The DoNotRemove field with a value of "1" will prevent this deletion from occurring.
-bel [-si | -st | -id]
Batch execute list template This command is not accessible through the signEZ GUI. It uses a single signature settings batch document as a template for signing design elements for a list of databases on a specific server.<server><db> -bel <noteID> Use-siif you want to use an different ID to batch execute the list. You will need to switch to the other ID manually (there will be a pop-up window):<server><db> -bel -si <noteID> Use-stif you want to use the stored ID given by the Notes.ini (stored in the line "YtriaSignEZSignUsingStored") containing the NOTEID (in decimal) of the list (in the signEZ database) containing the stored ID. This will detach the stored ID into the <Notes Data Dir>/ytriatemp.id :<server><db> -bel -st <noteID> Use-idif you'd like to batch execute using an ID file. This uses the ID stored in the Notes.ini entry for "YtriaSignEZSignUsingID":<server><db> -bel -id <noteID> For all-belcommands,the 'noteID' must refer to a document in your signEZ database(which you maycreate manualGo to linkly using scanEZly using scanEZor create by code)with the following values:
1 Note: By default, signEZ will delete this document once the command has completed. The DoNotRemove field with a value of "1" will prevent this deletion from occurring.
* Note 1:The "database" and "Server" fields in yoursignature settings BATCH documentare ignored when running-belcommands. *Notes 2:When executing-belcommands, you normally should not use asignature settings BATCH documentthat uses a "Notes" field to list specific NoteIDs to sign. It is highly unlikely that a database-specific listing of NoteIDs would be relevant for another database; and what's worse, you may end up inadvertently processing notes in your target database that , by pure chance, share the same NoteID.
-bea
Batch execute audit/log documents This command performs the same function as the 'Process' button in thelogs viewof the signEZ database. The command will perform a batch signing or auditing action on the databases/design elements listed in existinglog(aka Audit)documents. The syntax for this command the same as it is for the-bel(Batch execute list template) command. <server><db> -bea <noteID>
Use-siif you want to use an different ID to batch execute the logged databases. You will need to switch to the other ID manually (there will be a pop-up window): <server><db> -bea -si <noteID>
Use-stif you want to use the stored ID given by the Notes.ini (stored in the line "YtriaSignEZSignUsingStored") containing the NOTEID (in decimal) of the list (in the signEZ database) containing the stored ID. This will detach the stored ID into the <Notes Data Dir>/ytriatemp.id : <server><db> -bea -st <noteID>
Use-idif you'd like to batch execute using a specific ID file. This uses the ID stored in the Notes.ini entry for "YtriaSignEZSignUsingID": <server><db> -bea -id <noteID>
For all-beacommands,the 'noteID' must refer to a document in your signEZ database(which you maycreate manually using scanEZor create by code)with the following values:
Required Fields
Type
Expected Values
LogDatabasePath
Text
Path to database that contains thelog document(s)*
LogServer
Text
Server of the database that contains the log document(s)
The NoteIDs of the log documents you wish to process. Each NoteID must be on its own line and must be in hexadecimal form. (It's very quick and easy to retrieve these NoteIDs with scanEZ)
Optional Field

Expected Value
DoNotRemove
Text
1 Note: By default, signEZ will delete this document once the command has completed. The DoNotRemove field with a value of "1" will prevent this deletion from occurring.
*These log document(s) are created if a signing or auditing action is performed AND if either 'forced logging' is enabled for a signing ID or the 'Save previous info in Log database' checkbox is ticked in the signEZ Signature Settings dialog. **The signature settings BATCH document is only used to supply the settings for this command--not the selection of designs to be processed or their location. Therefore the fields "TypeALL" "SelectALL" "Notes" "Server" and "Database" in thesignature settings BATCH documentwill be ignored when running this command.
-bed
Batch execute direct You can use this command to directly sign a specific design element in a single database. Unlike the other signEZ command line options, with-bedthe path of target database is given rather than that of the signEZ database. This command will always use the default signEZ database set in your notes.ini file: <target server><target db> -bed <noteID of design to process>The-bedcommand will always display a pop-up dialog box prompting you to choose a signature ID. This pop-up dialog also includes a checkbox to enable or disable theVerify previous signaturesoption:
For-bedcommands the following options are predefined:
TheRemember My Settingsoption will be turned off. (This means no new signature settings batch documents will be listed in the in theSaved Settings viewin your signEZ database when this command is executed).
Unsigned documents will be signed. This is equivalent to enablingOptions>Process Unsigned Elementsin the signEZ application.
Agents will not automatically be enabled after being signed. This is equivalent to disablingOptions>Automatically Enable Agents in Databasein the signEZ application.
The action will be set toSign(notAuditorClean & Sign)
NoLogswill be created.
It will not prompt for each signature.
Re-sign my design elementsis enabled.
TheDo not re-sign the following signaturesandRe-sign the following signaturesoptions are turned off.
-hsd
Direct hotspot signing This command works in the exact same manner as the aforementioned-bed(batch execute direct) direct command, except that it is specifically designed for signing hotspots in documents (typically buttons in email messages). You can use this command to directly sign a specific document in a single database. Unlike most other signEZ command line options, with-hsdthe path of target database is given rather than that of the signEZ database. Please note that this command is also available as an add-on toolbar button,click herefor installation instruction. TheDirect hotspot signingcommand will always use the default signEZ database set in your notes.ini file:

-bu
Edit a batch document This command performs the same function as theEditbutton (or double-clicking an item) in your signEZ database: <server><db> -bu <noteID>Expects a signature settingssignature settings BATCH documentNote ID.
-bc
Create a new signature settings batch document This command is the same as theNew Settings docbutton in your signEZ database (the button was called "Create" in earlier versions of signEZ). If you input the command as follows, a signature settings batch document will be created in the same directory as your default signEZ database (it's set in the "YtriaSignEZDatabasePath" notes.ini value): <server><db> -bc If you'd like to be prompted to choose a file path for the batch document, you can use this command: <server><db> -bc <noteID> Expects asignature settings BATCH documentNote ID.
NB: When using the noteID of an existing signature settings BATCH document, please be aware that it will not be used as a full template, just the source of the DATABASE and SERVER field values.
-bcm
Create multiple batch documents Use the initial values of an existing signature settings BATCH document and create a batch document for each database in the selected directory. This command is the same as theNew Settings Docs for Directorybutton in your signEZ database (the button was labeled "Create From..." in earlier version of signEZ): <server><db> -bcm <noteID> Expects asignature settings BATCH documentNote ID.
-lo
Open a log document. This command is the same as double-clicking a log document or clicking theOpen Selectedbutton in your signEZ database when a single document is selected: <server><db> -lo <noteID> Expects anAUDIT documentNote ID
-lm
Open multiple log documents This command is the same as clicking theOpen Selectedbutton in your signEZ database when a multiple documents are selected: <server><db> -lm <noteID> For all-lmcommands,the noteID must refer to a document in your signEZ database(which you maycreate manually using scanEZor create by code)with the following values:
This command will execute the signature settings batch document specified in NoteID h864a on a specified list of database (also indicated in the document with NoteID h864a). The database 'Ytria\signEZ.nsf' will be used process the signature settings batch document.
