Hello,
Welcome to the Docusign Community!
You cannot send an empty envelope, I mean, without at least one document and at least one recipient.
If you don’t want a signature field showing up in the document then you can set the recipient’s action as “Needs to View” so when they access the envelope to see the document, they don’t need to sign, however will be registered in the Audit file the date/time when they viewed the document.
Another option, it’s to include an Approve button in the document to the recipient. They will just need to click in the Approval button, nothing will show up in the document, however will be registered as approved in the Audit trail log (Certification of Completion).
I hope that helps.
Best,
Alexandre
