How to Request a Signature
To use the 'Send to Sign' feature you must be subscribed to the Advanced plan. If you are subscribed on the Essentials plan, just upgrade your account subscription to the Advanced plan. The Send to Sign feature allows for signatures, initials and dates to be requested by up to five (5) signers in a specified order from both the Documents page of the web portal and directly within the document in the app on the mobile device. The information below will provide details on how to perform a Send to Sign through the web portal. To see how to perform the action via the app on the mobile device see Send a Document for Signature (iOS App).
1. Submit a Document
In order to send a document for signature, first the document needs to be filled out in the mobile app or via the Add Document functionality. Once the document is filled out or completed and is ready for signature, the document MUST be submitted. The submitted document is processed as per the standard output settings and any integration setup (i.e. JobNimbus, WorkWave) and available in the Documents page of the naturalForms web (admin) portal.
2. Request A Signature for a Document
After the document has been submitted, the document can be sent for signature from the Documents page of the web portal which can also be access via a mobile device using a browser (i.e. Google Chrome or Safari).

In addition the documents when signed will be available to both the sender and signer. Documents can be downloaded from the email by the signer for document retention and appropriate file storage.
