Signing Order

When you add multiple signers to an envelope, you can choose how they receive the document.

Parallel signing (default)

All signers receive the signing invitation at the same time. Anyone can sign in any order. This is the fastest option when the order does not matter.

Sequential signing

Signers receive the document one at a time, in the order you specify. The next signer is notified only after the previous signer completes their fields. Use this when:

• A manager must sign before a subordinate.
• A legal review is required before the other party signs.
• Counter-signatures are needed in a specific order.

Setting the order

When adding recipients, drag and drop them into the desired sequence, or use the number input next to each name. Signer 1 receives the document first, then Signer 2, and so on.
