Client Contacts

Client contacts are the actual people within a client organisation who receive and sign documents. Each client can have multiple contacts.

Adding a contact

  1. Open a client.
  2. Click Add Contact.
  3. Fill in the contact details:
    • First name and Last name
    • Email address (required) — this is where signing invitations are sent.
    • Phone number (optional)
  4. Click Save.
info

The email address is critical — it's used to send signing invitations and identify the contact across documents.

Primary contact

Each client has a primary contact — the default contact used when inviting the client to sign a document. You can change the primary contact in the client settings.

Managing contacts

Edit a contact

  1. Open the client.
  2. Click on the contact you want to edit.
  3. Update their details.
  4. Click Save.

Remove a contact

  1. Open the client.
  2. Click the remove button next to the contact.
  3. Confirm the removal.
warning

Removing a contact does not affect documents they have already signed. Their signature and signing history are preserved.

Saved signatures

Contacts can have saved electronic signatures and initials:

  • Signature — stored as an image, re-used when the contact signs future documents.
  • Initials — stored similarly for initials fields.

These are captured the first time a contact signs a document and can be re-used for future documents.

Using contacts as signatories

When inviting signatories to a document, you select from your client contacts:

  1. Open a document.
  2. Click Invite.
  3. Browse or search for the client contact.
  4. Add them as a signatory.

The contact's email address is used to send the signing invitation.
