What is sequential signing?

Sequential signing is a feature that allows multiple signers to sign a document in a specific order. This ensures that each participant signs the document in a predetermined sequence, eliminating confusion and ensuring the integrity of the signing process.

It is particularly useful when there are multiple stakeholders involved. For example, in a document requiring approvals from different departments, the second signer may not be able to sign until the first signer has completed their signature. This ensures that the document moves through the workflow smoothly and according to the desired order.

Where to use sequential signing?

1. Approvals in a business workflow:

For instance, a project proposal may require sign-offs from the project manager, finance department, and senior management, in that order.

2. Legal contracts and agreements

Sequential signing is often necessary for legal documents. For example, in a partnership agreement, each partner may need to sign in a specific order to maintain legal vah3dity.

3. Providing loans to Individuals

To ensure everyone understands the terms of the loan agreement, there’s a need to follow a specific signing order: borrower first, guarantors or co-borrowers second, and finally the loan approver.
