Signing with lists and data rooms

Learn how documents move between lists, data rooms and Signing, and what updates in each place.

Adding documents to Signing

  • From a list: click the signing icon beside the document (Open in signing view). On a matter that uses the new Signing module, this moves the document into Signing.

  • From a data room: click More actions on the document and choose Mark for signing.

Caution: Anyone with Edit access to Signing can mark any document they can see for signing, including a data room document they can only view. Once it is in Signing, everyone with Signing access can see it. See Managing access with signing permissions.

What shows in the list

While a document is out for signing, its signing status shows in the list row and updates as signing progresses.

New versions

If you upload a new version in a list or data room, Signing takes it. The exception is a document that is already Signed, which stays Signed and does not take the new version.

Deleting rows and files

You can delete a row or file in a list while its document is out for signature. Legatics warns you if that would break a DocuSign link. The signing record is not affected.

Note: You cannot create a binder from documents in Signing. If the documents started in a list, the signing state goes back to the list, and you can build the binder from there. If you uploaded the documents straight into Signing, export them and add them to a binder.
