Note: By default, comments are disabled for an account. To enable comments and manage the settings for them, you must be an administrator with All Administration Capabilities. If the comments option is not available on your account, contact DocuSign customer support to enable the feature.
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out here in the DocuSign Community.
I apologize for the inconvenience, I understand that you are receiving the error Account does not have permission to set Allow Comments, when trying to send the envelope.
Since you are the admin and do not see the option in the settings tab, that means that the option is disabled at the backend of the account, this normally happens when changing the plan on the account.
You will need to create a case with DocuSign Support or call US/CA at please see the following announcement regarding important changes to Docusign Live Inbound Phone Support: https://support.docusign.com/s/articles/Upcoming-Changes-to-Live-Inbound-Phone-Support?language=en_US
More information at How do I open a case in the DocuSign Support Center?
Note: Some advanced features and options are supported only in certain DocuSign plans. Your account plan might not support some options discussed in this help topic. For more information about which options are available for your account, contact your account administrator. Or, visit our Plans and Pricing web page for more details on the features included with your plan.
