# Completion Certificate

A completion certificate in emSigner includes important details, such as the names of individuals or stakeholders who participated in the workflow, the date and time of completion, the status of the document (e.g., signed), and any additional information relevant to the specific workflow.

When a document goes through a predefined workflow in emSigner, such as approval or signing by multiple parties, a completion certificate may be generated automatically or manually at the end of the process. This certificate serves as proof that the workflow was completed as intended.

Completion certificates can be valuable for audit and compliance purposes. They provide a record of actions taken within the system, which can be essential for demonstrating adherence to internal policies or external regulations.

In some cases, completion certificates may also confirm the legal validity of electronically signed documents, particularly in regions or industries where electronic signatures are legally recognized.

Any stakeholder in the workflow can access the Completion certificate by following the below steps:

**Step 1:** Navigate to Docstore and select Completed documents
