Wrong Order of Consent Document and Contract
Thursday, April 11, 2019 at 11:45pmHello Team,
I have a problem with the order of the Consent Document and the Contract.
I am using API to created the package and send the documents.
In the beginning I was sending only a Contract. Last days I did some code changes to add the Consent Document. I used the code sample with I have downloaded from your website.
I don't use the default Consent Document. I send my document via the API. I did the code changes and tested the same. Everything was working correctly. The Consent Document was shown first, and only when I clicked "Accept", I was able to sign the Contract.
I tried to test again in the beginning of this week (without changing anything in my side). I just created a new package with the existing code in my side.
Unfortunately, I now see first the Contract (which I can sign) and after that the Consent Document (which I can also accept without signing the first document - contract).
Could you please help on this issue?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Michail

Friday, April 12, 2019 at 03:13amHi Michail, To control the workflow of documents, you'd make sure two points in your payload: (1)Set your custom consent document as default consent (instead of the regular accept-only document). The difference between default consent and accept-only was: accept-only can be skipped without signing whereas default-consent can't. Here's a previous post including the way to do that. (2)Make sure you set your custom consent document the index prior than your contract. About document workflow/index, go check Document Workflow guide. But you mentioned that there's no code/payload change and you saw the behavior difference. So if you could provide with your code & payload, it does better help to find the cause. And please let me know if you removed the default-consent via our support team at account level or you delete it by API call every time when package creation. Hope this could help! Duo
