How to configure electronic signature for a quote?
Configure signers and participants to finalize your sales proposals
Introduction
Qwoty integrates an eIDAS level 1 certified electronic signature solution. From the quote editor, you define participants and signers, both internal and external, to finalize your commercial proposals in a secure and legally valid way.
Access
In the quote editor, open the Signature section.
Choose the signing mode
Two modes are available depending on your needs:
- Open : Anyone with the link can sign the quote
- Restricted : Only designated signers can sign
Set up Open mode
Open mode is suitable for simple processes where you do not need to precisely control who signs.
How it works
The first person to access the link and sign validates the quote.
Add participants
- Click + External participants or + Internal participants.
- Select people from the list or create a new contact.
- Click Add.
Participants receive the link and can sign or view the quote.
Set up Restricted mode
Restricted mode gives you full control over the signing process. Only designated signers can sign, and you can add view-only participants.
How it works
The quote is validated only when all signers have signed.
Add signers
- Click + External signers or + Internal signers.
- In the modal :
- Existing contacts : Search and select from the list
- New external contact : Enter First name, Last name and Email
- Click Add.
Each signer is identified by their role:
- External : Customer or partner contact
- Internal : Member of your team
Add view-only participants
View-only participants can view the quote without being able to sign it.
- Click + External participants or + Internal participants.
- Select or create the contact.
- Click Add.
Define a signing order
Enable Signing order to enforce a sequential signing order.
- Enable the Signing order toggle.
- Signers are numbered (1, 2, 3...).
- Reorder by drag-and-drop.
The next signer only receives the signature request once the previous one has signed.
Add an external participant
- Click + External participants or + External signers.
- In the Add external participant modal :
- Search among existing contacts and check the desired people
- OR create a new contact :
- First name * : First name
- Last name * : Last name
- Email * : Email address
- Click Add.
Add an internal participant
- Click + Internal participants or + Internal signers.
- In the Add internal participant modal, search among members of your workspace.
- Check the desired people.
- Click Add.
