How to Configure Signers for E-Sign Flow
Feature only available via an Engage license.
When designing a template with e-signing capabilities, it is critical to think how the signers will be defined. Signers can be classified as either internal or external, depending on their association with the organization. This document outlines the process for defining and managing these signers to ensure smooth and efficient document signing.
Automatic Signers
Automatic signers are those who are pre-selected to sign documents. These can be categorized into:
Automatic External Signers: External parties who are automatically assigned as signers based on predefined criteria in the template. Usually, it will be the main contact role of the prospect. If the settings are left empty, the primary contact of the main object or related account contacts can be selected manually
Automatic Internal Signers: Internal stakeholders within the organization who are automatically assigned as signers based on predefined criteria.

If the 'Can select signers' setting is enabled, by default, the related account contacts (supported objects: Account, Case, Contract, Opportunity, Quote) as well as the document author will be selectable.

Manual Signers
Manual signers are those who can be enlisted to be selected as the signers. The selected signers will sign the document in an order.
Manual External Signers: If there are multiple external signers, users can choose which contact to use. To determine the source of the signer contact, you can use an Expression Language (EL) expression. This expression dynamically retrieves the contacts from the specified account.

Manual Internal Signer Group: define the Public Group Name or Id to enable users to select any member of the group to be invited for signing a document. For example,

Define the public group name to enlist users in that group
