How to Send Documents for Signature
Getting Started
Enterprise customers can choose to begin with a template or upload a file to start from scratch.
- Click Signatures or Signatures+ in the main menu
- Choose a Template or Upload a file
Step 1: Document & Recipients
Choose your document and recipients.
Required Fields:
- 1 or more documents
- PDF is highly recommended. Other file types may lose formatting
- 1 or more recipients
- Include yourself if you also need to sign
- Enable signing order if someone (like you) needs to sign before others
- Use Reviewers to allow someone to approve (via an "Approve" button) without adding a signature—ideal for internal checks
- Use CC (optional, located below recipients)
- Do not remove "import@pivott.io" from CC
Important: If signers are required to upload additional documents during the signing process, do not use the "In-person signer" option.
Step 2: Prepare Document
Customize or confirm how the document will be filled out and signed.
For each signer:
- Select the signer
- Add fields for that signer
- Mark fields as required if needed
- Optionally, insert default text
When you're done, click Send
