Publication number: 20230359811Abstract: Techniques for obtaining electronic signatures via word processing applications are described. One approach utilizes a code module, also referred to as a “markup module,” that executes within a word processing application and that facilitates the preparation of a document for electronic signature. A user can operate the word processing application together with the markup module in order to add signature tag markers to the document and to provide recipient information about intended signers, such as names and email addresses. Once the document has been prepared, the code module transmits the document (including the added signature tag markers) and the recipient information to a digital transaction service. The digital transaction service then manages the signing of the document, such as by notifying the recipient, receiving the recipient's signature and securely storing the signature in association with the document.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventors: Inbar Gazit, Joe Cartano, Jenson Yan, Lahini Arunachalam, Tamara Solorzano Tejeda

Patent number: 8535162Abstract: A method for providing a challenge user interface for an enterprise social network including users associated with an entity. The method can include receiving a request for a challenge leader board of users of the enterprise social network in response to a challenge being selected from a list of displayed challenges with the selected challenge having an associated point category. The challenge leader board can be based on users awarding challenge points to other users for challenges in the same point category as the point category of the selected challenge. In response to the request, challenge leader board information comprising an ordered list of users based on an amount of challenge points each user has been awarded in challenges in the same point category as the point category of the selected challenge can be obtained. The challenge leader board information can be transmitted to the user system for display.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2011Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Joshua Newman, Jonathan Hersh, Lahini Arunachalam

Patent number: 8517840Abstract: A method for providing a challenge user interface for an enterprise social network including users associated with an entity. The method can include receiving a request to select a specific challenge from a list of challenges a user is a participant and displayed on a user system associated with the user. Information associated with the selected challenge including points associated with an action can be obtained from one or more databases. The specific information can be transmitted to the user system for display. An action associated with the specific challenge can be received. A user profile associated with the user can be obtained from the one or more databases. In response to receiving the action, a total points parameter associated with the profile can be updated in response to receiving the action. The updated total point value can be stored in the one or more databases.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2011Date of Patent: August 27, 2013Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Joshua Newman, Jonathan Hersh, Lahini Arunachalam
