Optional signatures

Hello, We have a form that has two signature spots but the user only signs one spot. Would the Silanis API allow some sort of command for optional signatures? So that Silanis will consider the form complete if EITHER of two spots is signed? Currently we use this code – is there a flag we send to tell the e-sign process that the signature is optional. Field newField = new Field() .setType(FieldType.INPUT) .setSubtype(FieldSubtype.LABEL) .setName(participantSignatureDateFieldsAL.get(i)) //Name found in the PDF document .setBinding("{approval.signed}") .setExtract(true); Thank you

Unfortunately, this feature is not currently available. When adding signature blocks, they have to be signed in order for the package to be marked complete. You can also post your request for this in the Enhancement Ideas forum, here.

Thank you for your reply. What are our options then? We have a form that needs to be signed by the user that has 2 spots that need to be signed. We do not know what spot he/she would pick to sign. They cannot sign both spots. I was hoping there was an optional signature flag that we can send to Silanis. Thanks

I would suggest creating a form for your user to review your document. Then, you could create and send your package accordingly with the appropriate signature block for signing. Unfortunately, eSignLive doesn't support optional signatures at the moment. I will put in a request for this. Hope this helps!

Just as an FYI, the optional signature feature is on the roadmap for 2016. I will reply to this post when it becomes available.

Hi kennyb, Optional signatures currently sits as candidate. Meaning that our product management team has accepted the idea but isn't currently on our roadmap. There is no fixed date on when we are going to start implementing that feature.

Do you have any suggestions on how we would get around a signature that is optional on the form? For example, we have an optional signature for a personal guarantee where the customer can make the choice if they want to agree to that or not.

You will need to handle that logic before creating a package in eSignLive. For example, have a checkbox in your form that if checked, will add an additional signature.
