Hi,

Thank you for reaching out here in the DocuSign Community.  

I appreciate you sharing your concern. If you are looking to manually fill out the fields in question prior to sending your envelope, you can do this during the document tagging step of the envelope creation workflow.

After you have defined your recipients and documents (or after you have clicked on "Use" next to your template) you will be taken to a screen where you can add your fields to your document, it is during this step that you will be allowed to enter data into your fields by double clicking them or by clicking them once and including the desired answer in the "Add text" or "Options" field properties.

For more details on this topic, see:

Feel free to let us know if you need further assistance with this. 

Thank you for using DocuSign, we hope you have a wonderful rest of your day! 

Best regards,
