The Contact Groups feature allows you to send documents to a group of signers simultaneously, which is particularly beneficial if you frequently send documents to the same set of individuals. When a signature request is sent to a contact group, any member of the group can sign the document without requiring a specific signing order.
Follow the below steps to send documents to a group of signers:
- Click the
Create New
button and select theCreate New Document
option. - You will be navigated to the Prepare Document page.
- In the
Add recipients
section, click theContext
menu located near the Add Recipients button, and from there, choose theAdd Recipients Group
option. - By selecting this option, the
Contact group name
column will be added to theAdd Recipients
section. As you enter an existing group name into theContact group name
field, the group name will appear in the drop-down menu. Simply click on the group name to add it as a recipient.
- The total number of recipients in that group can be found just below the
Contact group name
field. To view the list of recipients within that group, click theViewList
option.
- If you don’t have any existing contact group and want to create a new one, you can do so by clicking the
Create new contact group
option.
- By doing so, a pop-up will be displayed. Enter the group name in the
Contact group name
field and add signers in theAdd user(s) to the group
field by using theAdd
option. - After adding the required users, click the
Create
button. Your contact group has been successfully created.
- Fill in all other required fields and click the
Next
button. - On the Configure Fields page, add the required form fields to the document and click the
Send
button. - Now, the document has been successfully sent for signature to a group of signers simultaneously.
