@coastgarden Text fields would be the correct DocuSign field to use where you could specify a length based on the space within the document.  Text fields have “validation” options in the field panel to the right when a field is highlighted.  Validations include “email”, SSN, number etc.  An Address would be difficult to define in a “validation” as they can be of varying length and characters.  However you can set custom validations in the form of Regular Expressions.

Template do not require all Recipient data to be filled out in the Template only the Recipient Role.  So f you add a Recipient, then set a “Role” as “Employee” you can then select Next to set field associated to that Recipient. Then when using the Template, you would be required to add Name and Email address before sending.
