Personal Certificate File Request

In order for a user to log into the eFactoring application, he/she must have a valid personal certificate file. You will receive this personal certificate file (electronic key) from the factoring company after you fill in a personal certificate file application. Now click the icon. The Personal Certificate File Creation (1/3) dialog appears.

Fill John Smith into the Name and Last Name items, enter 784512120001 into the Personal ID Number item and fill in the personal ID card number or passport number into the Personal Document Number item. Enter smith@yahoo.com into the Email item. Enter London into the City item and United Kingdom into the Country item. Enter the security PIN into the PIN item to block a certificate which you will be prompted to do when you attempt to block a certificate. The Confirm PIN field is used to check masked PIN values. The Path and Name of the Certificate File Location item will be filled in automatically with C:\Smith_John.key.

Note

Make sure the email address is entered correctly or the factoring company will not be able to inform you about certificate renewal.

Tip

If a file with the certificate request already exists, a warning is displayed concerning an existing file. If the user agrees with the overwriting of the file, the original file with certificates (and certificate requests) will be saved as a backup into the file with the suffix *_BACKUP_YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.KEY added to the same path as the original file, where * represents the name of the original file without the suffix and YYYY = year, MM = month, DD = day, HH = hour, SS = second. The original file with certificates will therefore not be lost through overwriting; it instead will be saved on the disk storage of the user's work station. If the user does not agree with the overwriting, further generation of the request is not permitted.

Tip

The PIN for blocking a certificate must only be a number and must contain at least 5 numbers.

Press the button.

The Personal Certificate File Creation (2/3) dialog appears in which you enter the password you will use to log in with the help of the personal certificate file into the Password item. Enter the password again, for confirmation purposes, into the Confirm Password item.

Enter Heslo452 into the Password item and enter the same password, Heslo452, into the Confirm Password item. Press the button.

In the lower part of the Personal Certificate File Creation (3/3) dialog, a blue dialog appears in which you must move the cursor around until the message "Your personal certificate file was created" appears. Press the OK button.

The Certificate Request dialog appears where, on the Holder Information tab, all data about John Smith appears; information about the certificate identification number, its validity, status, etc. appears on the Certificate Information tab.

Save this request on disk using the button or press the button and your request will automatically be sent and saved into the factoring company database.

After sending the certificate request, the Personal Certificate File overview appears. Here, information about your certificates is displayed. If a certificate has not yet been approved, the word Request appears next to the certificate name.
