Our clients visit us from time-to-time. Are they able to sign the transaction package while in our office?

 

Answer: Yes, as long as Open as Signer is configured for your Company.  Contact your Customer Success Manager to have added to your company. 

 

After the Publisher submits “Send” on a Transaction, they are presented with the option to “Open as Signer”. By selecting this option, the transaction will open on the Publisher’s computer or tablet device.

 

 

 

When I type the client’s name in the search bar I can’t find them. What do I need to do?

 

Answer: If a Transaction is still in “Draft” status, the Search function will not return results when searching by name. Searching with the Transaction ID will immediately pull up the Transaction you need.

 

I only have one cell phone number for a couple. What if my client does not have a mobile phone?

Answer: You can use the same cell phone number for multiple individuals.

If your client does not have a mobile phone, they can select the “Call Me” feature when opening a document and they will receive a call to their landline with the access code.

Why did a document package disappear from a Work Group?

Answer: Once all signatures have been completed this marks the package as “Done”. Once a package is marked as done it is automatically removed from the Work group.

 

B. LexisNexis ID Verification (TDA ONLY)

The system uses LexisNexis ID Verification. How many LexisNexis attempts will the client get?

 

If you answer 1 of 3 answers incorrectly LexisNexis will give you the opportunity to try one question again. If you still answer incorrectly, you will not be able to sign.

 

On the third invalid attempt, signers will be blocked from attempting the IDV process for 7 days. Once blocked, the signer will have to wait 7 days before attempting again.

 

How do I retrieve the LexisNexis Certificate of Completion?

Answer: Download the transaction as “Individual PDF”

Step 1) Open the signing document

Step 2) Select Download, Individual PDFs.

Step 3) Contained within the zip folder is the Certificate of Completion

 

 

 C. End User Emails

Can I use the same email for two signers?

Answer: No, each signer must have their own email. If it is not possible to use unique email addresses, print a hard copy for wet signature(s).
