Sometimes, sending a document to multiple recipients for signature can be cumbersome. Traditionally, you&#8217;d have to add each recipient individually to the signer step, which is time-consuming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>Enhance your workflow with signing groups<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With eformsign, you can streamline your document signing process by creating signing groups. Here&#8217;s how it works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Create a signing group<\/strong>: Begin by creating a signing group consisting of multiple members. This eliminates the need to add members individually to your signing workflow.<\/li><li><strong>Add the signing group to the signing workflow<\/strong>: When sending a document for a signature, simply add the signing group in a signer step of the signing workflow. This allows you to send the document to all group members simultaneously.<\/li><li><strong>Efficient document handling<\/strong>: Once the document reaches the signing group, any member can fill and sign the document, advancing it to the next step in the signing workflow.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>By leveraging signing groups, you streamline your document process and boost productivity. Let&#8217;s walk through the steps of setting up and utilizing signing groups in eformsign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Step 1: Create a signing group<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Navigate to the <strong>Manage company<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Manage groups<\/strong> menu in the sidebar.<\/li><li>Click on the <strong>Create a group<\/strong> button and enter the group name and description, as well as adding the members who will be part of this signing group.<\/li><li>Once the group details are filled, click <strong>Save <\/strong>to create the signing group.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>*Note that signing groups can be created only by your company administrator and company managers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eformsign.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/04\/creating-a-signing-group-GIF3.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13398\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>*Note that only company members can be added to a signing group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Step 2: Add a signing group to the workflow of a template<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Navigate to <strong>Manage templates<\/strong> and select the desired template. Then, click <strong>Add new signer<\/strong> and add a new signer.<\/li><li>Click the drop-down menu under <strong>Add new signer<\/strong> and select the signer you just added.<\/li><li>Add fields for the signer.<\/li><li>Navigate to <strong>Configure<\/strong> &gt; <strong>Workflow<\/strong> and click the workflow step you want to add the signing group to.<\/li><li>Choose <strong>Group or member<\/strong> in the <strong>Recipient<\/strong> drop-down box.<\/li><li>Assign the signing group you want for that signer recipient.<\/li><li>Save and deploy the template. Now, when you send a document created from this template, it will be sent to all the members of the signing group assigned to the signer recipient.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eformsign.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/04\/creating-a-signing-group-preprocessed-2_1-1.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13402\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Step 3: Create and send a document to a signing group<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Navigate to <strong>New from template<\/strong> and select the template containing a signing group in the workflow.<\/li><li>Fill in the document and send it to the signing group.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eformsign.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2024\/04\/creating-a-signing-groupGIF-5.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13400\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>*Note that when sending a document to a signing group, all members of that group can sign and review the document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*Note that if any one of the members of the signing group signs and sends the document, the document is sent to the next step.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Are you looking to simplify your document signing process in eformsign?
