Hello. 

I am new to Docusign. When adding a new user to our account the default status is Pending. Why does it show this status? As one of the administrators is there something I need to do to update the status to Active?

Thank you,

Nancy

An activation email has been sent to the user to activate his Docusign eSignature user account. When the user clicks on the email and sets a password, the account will be activated.

There is an option to create and automatically activate a user account, but this requires SSO to be set up beforehand, including proof of domain ownership as part of the process.

Hello Michael. 

We do have SSO already set up. This is why I was surprised that the user account did not automatically activate. 

Should I open a support ticket?

Regards,

Nancy

 

Hello Michael. 

Based on your feedback I had a consultation with someone from the support team and was able to resolve this issue. Thank you again for your prompt response. It was helpful in pointing me in the right direction. 

 

Regards,
