to the right of the Template you'd like to update. Updating the Template here will not update any other versions of the Template.

Sending Templates & Packets
To send an E-Sign Template or Packet Template from a transaction, navigate to the transaction and click the SisuSign tab from the transaction toolbar at the top.
In the eSign Documents list, click the Preview & Send button
to the right of the Template or Packet you'd like to send.
→ Verify Data
Prior to sending you'll want to verify the data in your template is accurate. In the Verify Data step, you can review and complete both transaction form fields and non-transaction fields from your e-sign template. Any fields left blank here can be filled in during the next step (Finalize Document) or completed by the Signer.
Check the Read Only box to the right of the field if you want to prevent the Signer from editing the field information.
Check the Update Transaction box to the right of the field if you want any changes made here to update the information in the transaction form fields after the template is sent.
When ready, click the Next Step
button to finalize the document.
→ Finalize Document
In the Finalize Document step, you can review all changes made during the previous step and make any additional edits as needed. This is your last opportunity to ensure that all information is accurate, all fields are completed as desired, and the document is fully prepared before sending.
When ready, click the Next Step
button to choose your Signers.
→ Send For Signatures
In this final step, you’ll setup the signing roles and configure the email subject and message.
→ Signature Order
Choose whether to send your document to all Signers at the same time or in a specific sequence. If you select "Send in order," you'll be able to assign a signing order to each Signer individually.
→ Signature Assignments
Select a Signer from the dropdown menu and assign it to each recipient listed. For each signer, choose whether they will Sign Electronically or Sign Physically.
Sign Electronically requires the signer to complete their signature through SisuSign.
Sign Physically indicates the signer will sign the document outside of SisuSign.
→ Perform Test Run
Use the Perform Test Run button
to preview the e-sign document as a specific signer. This allows you to verify that all assigned fields and signature requests appear correctly before sending the document for signatures.
→ From Email, Default Subject & Default Message
In the From Email section, select the email address that will be used to send the signing request. Any configured Gmail integrations will appear in this dropdown.
In the Default Subject and Default Message sections, you can customize the email that will be sent to your signers. Enter a general email subject and message that will be sent to all recipients, or enable Use signer-specific messages to create personalized messages for individual signers.
Once all Signer roles and the From Email have been selected, the Send for Signatures button will become active. When you're ready to send the document, click Send for Signatures. 
Managing E-Sign Requests
After sending a SisuSign packet, it will appear in the E-Sign Requests section of the SisuSign tab within the transaction.
→ Reviewing Request Status
Expand a packet to view details for each signer, including:
Current signing status
Date signed (when completed)
Expiration date
By default, signing requests expire one week after they are sent.
As signers complete the packet, their status will update and display the date they signed. Once all required signers have completed the packet, the Completed Date and Status columns will automatically update to reflect the completed signing process.
→ Canceling a Request
To cancel an active signing request, click the X button
located on the far right side of the packet.
→ Downloading Completed Packets
Once a packet has been completed, click Download
to save the documents to your device.
You can choose to:
→ Viewing Requests Across All Transactions
To monitor SisuSign activity across your entire team, navigate to Transactions > SisuSign Status Board.
The SisuSign Status Board provides a centralized view of all sent signing requests and their current statuses. For additional information, refer to the SisuSign Status Board KB article. 📙
