Adding dynamic users

Adding Dynamic Users (During Signing)

In some workflows, internal users are allowed to add new participants dynamically while signing a document. This capability is enabled by the initiator while creating the workflow from a template.

When this option is available, the signer will see an Add Signatory panel on the right side of the signing screen.

When can dynamic users be added?

  • The document is initiated from a template.

  • The initiator has enabled dynamic participant addition.

  • The internal user is currently reviewing or signing the document.

This allows the workflow to be extended without restarting or re-initiating the document.


Adding a dynamic signatory

  1. Click Add Signatory from the right-hand panel.

  2. Select the role for the next participant:

    • Signer – must sign the document

    • Reviewer – can review but does not sign

  3. Add the participant by:

    • Searching for an existing user, or

    • Creating a new user on the fly by entering their details.

Once confirmed, the system displays a success message indicating that the new participant has been added.


Placing signature placeholders

After adding the dynamic user:

  • The signer is prompted to drag and drop the signature placeholder onto the document.

  • The placeholder defines where the newly added participant must sign.


Completing the current signing step

  • The current signer completes their own signing.

  • Once completed, the document is automatically routed to the newly added participant.


Impact on signing order

  • The Signing Order Diagram is updated in real time.

  • The diagram clearly shows:

    • The newly added participant

    • Their role (Signer / Reviewer)

    • Their current status (Pending / Completed)

This ensures full transparency into how the workflow has evolved during signing.


Why use dynamic users?

Dynamic user addition is useful when:

  • An additional approver is identified mid-process

  • A missing signer needs to be included

  • The signing sequence needs to adapt to real-time business requirements

This feature keeps the signing flow flexible, controlled, and audit-friendly.
