Workflow
Step 1: Accept the Document
Accept the document in any format:
- File upload: PDF, DOCX
- URL: Link to a document in ~~cloud storage or ~~CLM
- Reference: "The Acme Corp MSA we finalized yesterday"
Step 2: Pre-Signature Checklist
Before routing for signature, verify:
markdown## Pre-Signature Checklist - [ ] Document is in final, agreed form (no open redlines) - [ ] All exhibits and schedules are attached - [ ] Correct legal entity names on signature blocks - [ ] Dates are correct or left blank for execution date - [ ] Signature blocks match the authorized signers - [ ] Any required internal approvals have been obtained - [ ] Document has been reviewed by appropriate counsel
Step 3: Configure Signing
Gather signing details:
- Signers: Who needs to sign? (names, emails, titles)
- Signing order: Sequential or parallel?
- Internal approval: Does anyone need to approve before the counterparty signs?
- CC recipients: Who should receive a copy of the executed document?
Step 4: Route for Signature
If ~~e-signature is connected:
- Create the signature envelope/request
- Set signing fields and order
- Add any required initials or date fields
- Send for signature
If not connected:
- Generate a signing instruction document
- Provide the document formatted for wet signature or manual e-sign
- List all signers with contact information

- Verify authority — Make sure each signer is authorized to bind their organization.
- Keep a copy — Executed copies should be filed in ~~cloud storage or ~~CLM immediately after execution.
