How to Send a Document for E-Signature

How to Send a Document for E-Signature

Strev allows you to send documents for e-signature in multiple ways depending on where your file is located. Follow the options below.

Option 1: From Documents (Create Module)

  1. Go to Documents → Create.
  2. Locate your document in the list.
  3. Right-Click on the document that you intend to send for esignature.
  4. Select Send for eSignature.

This is the fastest way if your document is already created inside Strev.

Option 2: From Within the Document Editor

  1. Open your document.
  2. Click the Actions (⋮) menu on the top right.
  3. Select Send for eSignature.

Use this when you are already editing or reviewing the document.

Option 3: From Smart Repository

  1. Go to Documents → Smart Repository.
  2. Right-click on the file you want to send.
  3. Select Send for eSignature.

This works for files stored in your repository without needing to open them first.

Option 4: From the E-Signature Dashboard

  1. Go to Sign from the left menu.
  2. Click Send for Signature (top right).
  3. Upload or select a document.

This is useful when starting a new signature request directly.


After Clicking “Send for eSignature”

Regardless of how you start, the process is the same:

Step 1: Enter Request Name

  • Add a Request name
  • This helps you track the signature request in the dashboard

Step 2: Add Recipients

  1. Click Add recipient
  2. Enter:
    • Email
    • Name

Optional:

  • Add me → include yourself as a signer
  • Send in order (enabled by default)
    • ON → signers receive the document one at a time (sequential)
    • OFF → all signers receive it at the same time (parallel)

You can also reorder recipients using the drag handle on the left.

Step 3: Add a Message (Optional)

  • Use Note to all recipients to include instructions or context
  • This message will be included in the email notification

Step 4: Configure Settings (Optional)

Click More settings to expand:

  • Send automatic email reminders → toggle ON/OFF
  • Days to complete → deadline for signing
  • Send a reminder every (days) → frequency of reminder emails

Step 5: Review Document

  • The selected document will appear under Documents
  • Confirm that the correct file is attached

Step 6: Send for Signature

  1. Click Send
  2. The request will be created and emails will be sent to recipients

After Sending

  • Track progress in Sign (E-Signature Dashboard)
  • Status updates include:
    • Draft
    • Sent for Signing
    • Completed

Notes

  • Recipients do not need a Strev account to sign
  • Signing order depends on the Send in order setting
  • Automatic reminders help reduce delays
  • A completed copy is saved once all signatures are collected
