Good Morning All,

My company uses a number of templates. I am an admin and I have a user that completed a 3 page template. Towards the end of completion this template user received a pop up message asking if she was still working on this document. She clicked YES on the screen, however Docusign kicked her out and sent her directly to the login screen. Once she logged in she could no longer see the template she had been working on. Is there anywhere the Docusign stores documents in limbo in the event of a time out? Can anyone assist me in finding this document? Hoping we don't have to start over from the beginning. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Is there anything I can do here to assist.

Have you had a chance to locate the template? Make sure the user wasn't actually creating an envelope instead of a template, as they can appear quite similar but are stored in different locations. For example, envelopes have a "Drafts" folder, while templates do not.

If the user did create a template, there should be a version of it saved. As an admin, you can verify this by performing an advanced search under the "Templates" section, using the user’s name or email address.

@NewM 

Good day to you. To add on to the nice options above. For the future, if this has not been done already. I would like to invite you or anyone in your company to create a free demo environment. You can use the following url:

https://go.docusign.com/demo 

Using this environment you can create and test out as many templates that you would like. And the best part is that if the template tests out well, you can download the template from the demo environment and upload to your production environment. So you don't have to do the same work twice. As the admin of the demo environment, you can set the time-out limit up to the maximum of 2-hours so if the user is distracted and works on something else with the limit of 2-hours available the likelihood of being logged off won’t happen. The only recommendation I would make is when creating the demo environment, you should use a personal email address as well as a fictious company name. When you do that, your demo environment won’t mirror your company's account settings. I hope you fine use in this, and do not hesitate to let me know if you have any further questions.
