# Custom Status

Custom Status allows you to configure additional statuses. Once the document reaches the *Completed* status, the document status can further be changed using custom status settings.

**Step 1:** Login to emSigner Super Admin account. Click on ‘Settings’ tab to open the Admin Settings. Click on ‘***Custom Status***’ below Admin Settings

**Step 3**: You will now be able to see a ***Status*** field where you can enter the status you would like to configure. E.g., Ready to Print, Printed, Delivered etc. You can also select the “***Trigger Email***” checkbox if you want to send an email to the recipients as a notification of status change. You can add multiple recipients by using commas
