# Sending Documents to others

### Sending Documents to Others

Once the initiator completes their signing in an **I will sign with others** workflow, the document is automatically sent to the next participant based on the configured signing order.

***

#### Email Notification to the Next Participant

The next participant in the workflow receives an email notification containing:

* Document details (name, sender, date)
* A **Review and Sign** action button

This email indicates that the document is pending their signature or review.

***

#### Accessing the Document for Signing

When a participant clicks **Review and Sign**:

* **External participants** are taken directly to the document signing page via the secure signing link.
* **Internal participants** are redirected to the emSigner login screen and, upon successful login, are taken to the signing interface.

Once accessed, participants can review the document and proceed with their assigned action.

***

#### Viewing the Signing Order

Participants can view the **Signer Order Diagram** to understand:

* Who initiated the document
* All participants involved in the workflow
* The current signing status of each participant (completed, pending, not started)

This provides clear visibility into the overall signing progress.

#### Completing the Signature

Once the participant:

* Reviews the document
* Applies their signature
* Clicks **Sign & Finish**

The document moves forward in the workflow:

* If additional participants remain, it is sent to the next signer
* If all participants have completed signing, the workflow is marked as completed

#### Completion of the Workflow

After the final participant signs:

* The document status is updated to **Completed**
* All internal participants can access the signed document from **Doc Store**
* Audit trail and signing details are preserved for reference and compliance

This completes the multi-signer workflow.
