Team Settings: Signer Options

  Available with: All Team Plans     Role: Billing Admin, Super Admin, Team Admin  Signer Options allows an organization to determine what, if any, restrictions signers have when signing a document. These are in both Global and Team settings. You can make them a default or enforce (lock) the settings. Signer Options  are found in both Global and Team settings.  By enabling or disabling each option you allow or restrict what a signer can, or cannot, do when signing a document. Below is an image of the Signer Options from Team Settings.  When the slider button to the left of the option is on the left and gray the option is visible to the signer.  If the button is on the right with a blue background, then the option is hidden from the signer. Let’s review what each of these options restrict a signer from being able to do if enabled.

Hide Reject Button

This option will hide the Reject option. This option allows the signer to reject, this action will let you know that they have decided not to sign the document.  

Hide Change Signer Button

Change Signer allows the signer to do exactly what it says, it allows them to reassign their tags in the document to another signer, i.e.: A husband may change it so that his wife will sign the document.  At this time Signority will ask for her name and email address to forward the document. 

Hide Save Button

If the Hide save button option is enabled, the recipient will not have the ability to save their progress as they are undergoing the signing process, and will have to either fill out the entirety of a form in one session or start over the next time they access the document.

Upon selecting the Hide download button option, the signer will not have the option to download the document that they are currently signing.

When the Hide view document button option is picked, the signer will not be able to see the document again after they have signed it.

If the Hide thumbnail option is selected, the signer will no longer see the thumbnail summary showing how many pages there are in each file that makes up the document.
