Sign order
==========
When a document needs to be signed by different parties, the signing order lets you control the
order in which your recipients receive it for signature.
By going to :menuselection:`Configuration --> Settings`, you can :guilabel:`Enable Signing Order`.
After uploading a PDF with at least two signature fields with two different roles and clicking
:guilabel:`Send`, toggle the :guilabel:`Specify Signing Order` button and search for the signer's
name or email information to add them. You can decide on the signing order by typing **1** or **2**
in the first column.
Each recipient receives the signature request notification only once the previous recipient has
completed their action.
Add at least two :guilabel:`Signature` fields with different roles to your document. Click
:guilabel:`Send`, go to the :guilabel:`Options` tab, and tick the :guilabel:`Specify signing order`
box.
Add the signer's :guilabel:`Name or email` information. You can decide on the :guilabel:`Sign Order`
by typing :guilabel:`1` or :guilabel:`2` in the :guilabel:`Sign Order` column.
