Contract cycles involve many steps, including sending the contract documentation to both internal and external parties for reviews, approvals, and signatures. DocuSign can facilitate taking a client’s documentation through your designated workflow.
The 'Approve' tag is placed on the document where you want the recipient to approve documents in an envelope without placing a signature or initials on the document. If the recipient clicks the 'Approve' tag during the signing process, the recipient is considered to have signed the document. No information is shown on the document for approval, but it is recorded as a signature in the envelope history.
The 'Decline' tag is placed on the document where you want to give the recipient the option of declining an envelope.
Additionally, the Approve tag has no text input with the tag, but the Decline tag does. The date, time, and IP address of approval/decline action will be tracked in the digital audit trail.
