What Happens When a Document Has Been Fully Signed?

Important information about signed documents

Key Details After a Document Is Signed:

  1. The document can no longer be edited or modified.

  2. New Recipients cannot be added to the document.

  3. Each page of the signed document is assigned a unique fingerprint to ensure its authenticity.

  4. The certificate includes details of all signers and an audit log of events leading up to the signing.

  5. A copy of the signed document is emailed to any addresses set under Signed document delivery, on the contract, its template or your account.
