When I send a contract for signature, the person who needs to sign can forward the email to someone else, and this person can click the link change the name and initials of the person who I assigned the contract and sign.

My concern is that anyone can change the name of the person and sign the document without me getting notified. I would like to know how can I disable that configuration, if someone wants someone else to sign the contract, they would need to reassign the contract and that way I do get notifications.

In the attached Picture you will see and example how I sent the doc to Brian, but Alena was able to click the link change Brian's name and put hers.

Hope this makes sense and someone can help me.

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out here in the DocuSign Community.

You can lock the recipient's name, which will prevent them from changing it and they will still be allowed to assign to someone else: https://support.docusign.com/s/document-item?bundleId=pik1583277475390&topicId=srv1583277356044.html&_LANG=enus
