One of the reasons why onboarding takes so long is due to the large amounts of paper documents that need to be printed, shared, signed, and returned. With DocuSign, HR can simply send future employees a link to electronically sign the appropriate documents. Easy Onboarding Whether it’s a mobile workforce with multiple remote offices or executives who are always traveling, signatures are required for everything from office supplies to large vendor purchases. Electronic signature solutions effectively bridge the workspace gap, allowing all necessary personnel to stay in the same workflow. The Mobile Workforce Organizations can instantly sign legal and compliance- related documents with an electronic signature solution. No more waiting for the documents to arrive in the mail, and no more need to mail the documents back to a legal office. Compliance and Legal Documents The General Networks RECOMMENDATION General Networks’ vendor for all things electronic signature is DocuSign. With DocuSign, approvals, agreements and transactional documents can be signed anywhere and on any device. DocuSign also has out-of-the-box connectors for industry-leading content management and workflow solutions, as well as an open API for integrating nearly any business platform. This allows for fully digital and automated electronic signature workflows that can be scaled across all processes where paper signatures or manual processes might exist today. A typical DocuSign transaction involves the following steps: • Login to DocuSign • Upload the document(s) that need to be signed • Indicate where the signature is required • Indicate who should sign the document(s) • Send reminders and alerts as needed to the signees Through the available connectors or API integration, most or all of these steps can also be automated. The Many Applications of ELECTRONIC SIGNATURES General Networks has helped various customers fully automate their business processes by integrating with DocuSign. A few highlights include: • We helped a regional credit union automate obtaining signatures on customer forms using their SharePoint-based, Nintex workflows and the DocuSign connector for Nintex. • We helped a worldwide entertainment company automatically archive fully executed contracts from the DocuSign cloud into their on-premises document system of record (SoR), OpenText eDOCS. • We helped a leading online retailer assemble and send supplier contracts from their on-premises Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system, OpenText Content Server, to DocuSign using the DocuSign open APIs. • We’re helping new customers every day to integrate their ServiceNow workflows with DocuSign using eSignifi, our app available in the ServiceNow Store that provides reusable activities to integrate with DocuSign from any ServiceNow workflow.
