After 2016, the business development of the domestic B2B industry no longer discusses transactions and traffic too much, but more about how to bond users through third-party value-added services; Domestic policies have more implemented the transformation effect of "Internet +" in all walks of life.

However, in the B2B industry, which has its own three elements: buying and selling, cooperation and service, the contract, as the basic contract guarantee service of the whole transaction process, and an important form of carrying the security of each element, has begun to be included in the consideration of third-party value-added services and comprehensive Internetization of enterprises, and the new form of contract signing that conforms to the times is attracting more and more attention.

As for the question of whether electronic contracts are reliable, in fact, general contracts do not require a specific form, as long as they are in a manner approved by both parties, they can conclude contracts that are legally valid. Therefore, whether an electronic contract is valid or not is actually a matter of probative force for the electronic contract as evidence. According to the latest provisions of the Civil Procedure Law, electronic evidence (including electronic signatures) is the same type of evidence as documentary evidence; According to the provisions of the Electronic Signature Law, a reliable electronic signature has the same legal effect as a handwritten signature or seal.

Therefore, an electronic contract with a reliable electronic signature is legally binding in itself.

2. Upload the documents or documents to be signed based on the electronic contract platform and send them to the other party's enterprise;

3. The signatory of the other party can receive the electronic contract based on the mobile phone SMS, and can sign it after the real-name authentication is completed.

In addition, enterprises that have realized informatization operations can also realize the docking of electronic contracts and business systems through interface integration, and make personalized deployment according to the actual signing process, and the electronic contract signing process can be implemented in as little as ten minutes at the earliest.

Now the best service has tended to be standardized, the advanced functions it provides have become the key to B2B competition, electronic contract as an important part of e-commerce, can be said to carry an important task of business transactions.

Electronic contract signing mainly includes the following steps:

1.Initiation of contract negotiations. First, enter the electronic contract conclusion system, register the user's identity information, verify the identity information, check the identity status, start the negotiation, and the system will automatically record the negotiation content.

In this way, the verification and review of users' identities is conducive to the establishment of a sound credit system for Internet platforms.

2.**Sign. The parties should read the content of the contract and sign their own exclusive electronic signature. The electronic signature of the third-party electronic contract platform adopts technical encryption, which makes the electronic contract more secure and complete.

3.Send the contract. In order to prevent system vulnerabilities or hackers from tampering with the content of the contract, the third party adopts advanced technology to send it to the other party for signature at the first time when the parties sign it, and accurately record the sending time and the time when the other party receives and viewes.

4.The other party signs. After receiving the electronic contract information, the other party will be notified in the form of SMS, and after reading and confirming, the electronic signature will be signed first, and the system will properly keep the electronic signature data.

5.Auxiliary authentication of electronic contracts. In order to ensure the user's security information, the system will use ***, timestamp, SMS notification, watermark and other methods to carry out auxiliary authentication of DENIC.

It is advisable to choose a reliable service platform for consultation.

Diversification of electronic contract systems.

A. It can support API SDK access. For example, you can sign electronic contracts with confidence, and the API interface can be connected with the B2B platform, and the approval and signing of the contract can be realized on the B2B platform itself, which is convenient for the upstream and downstream management of the ** chain.

c. Localized deployment. This type of signing method is mainly for large customers, or customers with specific needs, and localized deployment is simply to deploy the entire assured signing process on the customer's local server. This deployment method is relatively complex, requiring technical personnel to come to the site for installation and commissioning, and the deployment cycle is relatively long.

Third-party electronic contract platforms are the best choice to ensure the legal effect, convenience and efficiency of electronic contracts.

The Electronic Signature Law clearly stipulates that "reliable electronic signatures have the same legal effect as handwritten signatures or seals", and that "if an electronic signature requires third-party authentication, an electronic certification service provider established in accordance with the law shall provide authentication services".

It can be seen that the use of third-party electronic contract platforms to sign electronic contracts can ensure the legal validity of the contract.

The following technologies are required for general electronic contract platforms:

The EID authentication system of the Ministry of Public Security adopts the authentication technology of the national agency to ensure the true identity of the electronic contract signatory;

Anti-tampering technology: The international universal hash value technology is used to solidify the original electronic file data, and it is easy to identify whether the file has been tampered with;

Third-party timing technology: accurately record the contract time.

The specific signing process is as follows:

Nowadays, electronic contracts are not limited to the Internet industry, but have entered many application scenarios in various fields, and are a powerful tool for reducing costs and increasing efficiency in various industries.

According to the provisions of the Electronic Signature Law on reliable electronic signatures, electronic signatures that "lock the true identity of the contracting entity, effectively prevent document tampering, and accurately record the time of signing" are legally effective electronic signatures.

It is very unlikely that individuals and ordinary enterprises will want to produce reliable electronic signatures, and qualified third-party electronic signature platforms will use a variety of technologies to ensure the legal validity of the electronic signatures produced.

As a leading third-party electronic contract platform in China, the technologies we have implemented are:

1. Real-name authentication technology: Our electronic contract platform cooperates with authoritative CA institutions to provide users with CA certificates, and connects to the EID authentication system of the Ministry of Public Security to confirm the authenticity of user identity;

2. Anti-tampering technology: Our electronic contract platform uses international universal hash value technology to solidify the original electronic file data, which can easily identify whether the document has been tampered with;

For the B2B industry, the traditional paper contract has low chain management efficiency, offline contract express delivery, long time cycle, which affects the progress of the overall efficiency of the entire chain, and a large number of contracts involve bulk commodity transactions and chain management agreements, involving the core business secrets of enterprises, and there are potential security risks such as loss and theft in offline management, and it is not convenient for enterprises to retrieve and query. Therefore, electronic contract is an inevitable trend, and the electronic contract solutions of our platform are as follows:

Use the electronic contract of the legal platform to participate in the management of the platform chain and improve the efficiency of the platform; At the same time, our platform is used to encrypt and store important contracts to prevent contract leakage, loss and damage.

In terms of legal effect, convenience, security and legal services, choosing an excellent third-party electronic contract platform is the best choice.

The product form of Sanxiang Meng's socks for electronic contracts: SaaS, API and SDK, that is, standard products and customized products, SaaS is the standard version of the product, and API and SDK are customized products.

The electronic contract SaaS standard version of the product, that is, the electronic contract platform common to all companies, the signatory signs the electronic contract through multiple terminals such as computers, mobile phones and tablets.

Electronic contract API, SDK customized version of the product knowing. Generally speaking, it means that we connect the function of contract signing into the original office system or company products of the enterprise, without destroying the original process, but it is equivalent to an additional function in the enterprise's own system. This method is easy to use, and because it is customized, it can meet the individual needs of the enterprise.

Generally speaking, small enterprises will choose the standard version and use the electronic contract SaaS service directly through the electronic contract platform, which is fast and convenient without technical docking. For medium and large enterprises, they generally choose customized products, choose the deployment method of API or SDK, and the third-party electronic contract service provider will integrate the electronic contract related system into the enterprise office system, and use the electronic contract service in its own system, which requires the technical team to connect with the enterprise, and the development can be completed in 1-2 weeks, and the development can be completed once and for all.

Because the electronic contract has obvious advantages compared with the traditional paper contract, and this excellence is actually not only reflected in the B2B industry, but has gradually entered various fields, let's take a look at the specific situation of the use of electronic contracts on the B2B platform.

The buyer (buyer) cooperates with the B2B platform and the supplier (seller) to provide B2B with the following scenario services through third-party electronic contract services: procurement process, seller supply, logistics and warehousing services, **chain financial services, etc.

The B2B platform can use third-party electronic contracts to sign settlement agreements with settled enterprises, and platform customers can also use electronic contracts to sign purchase agreements;

When upstream and downstream ** chain enterprises have transactions, they can use electronic contracts to sign bulk transaction contracts;

The platform helps enterprises to coordinate logistics and transportation, warehousing scheduling and other needs, and can sign an entrusted management agreement with the enterprise in advance to stipulate the rights and responsibilities of all parties and avoid contract disputes.

In view of the problems of low chain management efficiency and hidden dangers in contract management of traditional contracts in the B2B industry, electronic contracts are used to participate in the management of the platform chain and improve the efficiency of the platform; At the same time, it can encrypt and store important contracts to prevent contract leakage, loss and damage.
