This feature allows you to set a dedicated timestamp service for each organization. This enhancement enabled the use of distinct timestamp servers tailored to each organization's needs, now accessible via a user-friendly UI within the organization settings. Here, administrators can enter URL, user credentials, and password information for the timestamp server.

Please note following prerequisites:
To utilize this feature, the feature flag "AllowUsingCustomTimeStampService" must be enabled for the organization. See Feature Flags#AllowUsingCustomTimeStampService
Furthermore, it is essential to note that no additional permissions are necessary other than "User can view organization settings" and "User can edit organization settings" to access and configure the timestamp server. See Roles and Permissions

The timestamp configuration can be found in the organization settings (additionally, an informational text has been included to clarify the configuration: "Configuration of a custom timestamp server. If no timestamp server is configured, the default timestamp server will be used. Modifications of this setting will be applied to both new and already sent envelopes."
