Can delegate signer sign with the principal signer's name?

Question

If Bob is a delegate for Peter, when an envelope is routed to Peter, Bob signs and it is his own name. Is it possible to set up in a way that Bob signs but it is with Peter’s name and information?

​@YingPThat is a great question...An option that you can try as long as your account doesn’t have the “Disable upload signature” selected, “Bob”can upload an image of “Peter’s” signature when he signs a document. That could be a quick workaround. The particular admin setting is located in the SIGNATURE ADOPTION CONFIGURATION setting in your signing settings. See the image below:This way, the document will show “Peter’s” signature, but the history will still follow that Bob signed it.Hope that helps!!!
