Overview
There are many scenarios where you'll want to update a document after you have already sent it to recipients.
For example, if you need to add an amendment to a sales proposal or make changes to a new hire form.
This used to take some time; having to find the original file, update it, and re-uploading it to GetAccept to send again to the recipients. Now, with the GetAccept editor block, you can send a document and then update it seamlessly from the document summary page.

What is the difference when it comes to updating a digital sales room document (non-signable) and a signable document?

The Experience for Recipients and Signers of Documents
Once the sender of a document has made any modifications, a few things happen to notify the recipients of the change.
They will receive a notification via email stating that the document has been modified and displaying the message the sender included with the published update. When they open the document, there will be a pop-up asking them to view the modified version of the send-out.
They will also see the message from the sender included in the live chat on the right and in the audit log once they receive the final signed PDF.
In the example below, we will see how the notification will look for the recipient when they have opened the document.
From a workflow point of view, this allows recipients to easily communicate their questions, challenges, or objections and allows the sender to quickly reply and make any changes to the document that are needed.
This ensures your deals keep moving quickly and seamlessly, all while making the experience convenient for all parties! |
