When directors have the same email address, digital signing will still be supported by CAS 360.

The email address will receive separate emails which will be addressed to each director for signing.

However, for legal reasons, it is highly recommended to have separate email addresses. To meet the legal requirements of electronic signatures under the Electronic Transactions Act 1999, each signatory must be identified and the electronic signing process must confirm their intent to sign.

If trustees or directors of share an email account/address, it is difficult to confirm these requirements.

4. How does the user decline a document for signing?

When in DocuSign, click on other actions and select Decline to sign.

5. How long are DocuSign documents valid for after being sent for digital signing?

DocuSign envelopes last approximately 999 days from the creation date of the documents in CAS 360. If after this time period has elapsed, all signatories have not signed the documents, DocuSign will void the documents.

If the documents have been void by DocuSign, the documents in CAS 360 will display their status as "DocuSign Failed".
