Sender resend envelop but signer still cannot change signature

I reviewed similar cases in the community and tried adjusting the signature changing solutions. Many moderators suggested the solution: “Contact the sender and have them resend the envelope.” However, in this situation, I am the sender. After voiding the previous envelope and resending a new one for the signer to correct their signature, the signer still sees the old signature stored from the past.

Therefore, I would like to confirm whether this solution actually works, or if there is any additional step required to reset the stored signature.

@oraphin.s 

You can check to be sure you haven’t set “signer cannot change signature” in your settings.

see this thread: 

 

“The checkbox for “Lock Recipient name” is an account wide setting and can be changed by your DocuSign Administrator as follows:

Login to DocuSign Web App -> Settings -> Signing Settings -> Signature Adoption Configuration -> Lock Recipient Name

When checked, the recipient will not able to make changes to his name when signing an envelope.”

 

and this DocuSIgn SUpport page:

good luck
