Replacing or adding a document within a several page document without losing fields that were already assigned.

Question

If a template has several documents (pages) within it and only one documents (page) needs to be edited (i.e. replaced) or another needs to be added in the middle of the template, how can I make that change without losing all of the other pages fields that were already assigned?  Example:  I have a 50 page document that I have assigned all fields within all pages.  I have to update one page within this document, how can I do that?  It is letting me remove a page, but not add one. Further, I do not want to have to start all over and reassign all fields if I add a page within the entire document.  Is this possible with DocuSign?

Hi,Thank you for reaching out here in the DocuSign Community.You can replace as many documents as you might need in your envelope or template by clicking the "Replace" button provided as part of the document actions dropdown menu (three dots at the bottom right corner of the document).As long as the new document has more pages than the original document, you shouldn't experience any problems with missing or misplaced fields.You can find more details on how to replace a document, here:Delete or replace a documentIt is important to note that you won't be able to replace any document where there are completed fields since once a recipient action is completed, the document is locked.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,Alejandro R. |DocuSign Community Moderator"Select as Best"below if you find the answer a valid solution to your issue!
