Electronic contract cancellation method

Abstract

The invention provides an electronic contract cancellation method which comprises the following steps: (1) when an electronic signature system creates a user, a cancellation electronic seal is createdand formed besides creating a digital certificate and a common electronic seal; (2) a user logs in the electronic signature system, uploads an electronic contract, creates a signature process, and specifies that the electronic contract is signed by each signer; (3) when executing cancellation of the electronic contract, cancelled electronic seals are stamped through digital signatures in turn byeach signer needing the electronic contract; and (4) all signers of the electronic contract are covered with the cancelled electronic seal consistently, which indicates that the contract has been invalid. According to the invention, the cancellation function of the electronic contract is basically consistent with the cancellation function usage of the paper contract; no matter how many middle signature files are formed before all the electronic contracts are signed, or how many copied electronic pieces are generated through copying, the state of the electronic contract can be judged through the traceability chain of the system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for processing an electronic contract, in particular to a method for invalidating an electronic contract. Background technique [0002] With the advent of the Internet + era, paperless office is an inevitable trend, and the replacement of paper contracts by electronic contracts has become a common demand in all walks of life. Along with the vast market of electronic signatures, more and more third-party credible signing platforms have appeared on the market, such as e-signature, Fada, Shangshangsign, contract lock, etc., which provide a variety of electronic contracts. Signing function. However, no one said that it provided the function of voiding the electronic contract; the voiding of the electronic contract has a clear usage scenario, but the scenario is relatively small, and most customers do not care about this function.

However, no one said that it provided the function of voiding the electronic contract; the voiding of the electronic contract has a clear usage scenario, but the scenario is relatively small, and most customers do not care about this function. When a contract needs to be voided, it may be the signatory. It is customary to discard this electronic contract directly

[0003] The main defect is that the electronic contract is already an effective electronic contract after the contract is signed.

If it is just discarded directly and used by interested people, using the voided contract as a valid contract, there will be false contracts, interest disputes, etc.; and if the paper contract is followed, it is in the electronic contract that has been signed. Then sign the voided seals of each signatory; however, due to the characteristic of electronic contracts that are reproducible, valid electronic contracts that are being signed or signed can be copied infinitely

Signing the invalidation seal will only operate on the specified electronic contract, and only one of the contracts will be invalidated, but the copied electronic contract is still technically a valid electronic contract

It will appear that the electronic contract appears to be valid, but in fact the electronic contract should be voided
