how to put initials on document without signature on last page

Question

Hello,we are using Adobe Sign to sign purchasing contracts. Some people have to put their initials on the document and other people have to sign it with their signature.I tested it two weeks ago and had no problem with this constellation. Since a few days I got the following warning. If I click on "send", Adobe Sign add new signature block for every person who only should initial.Is there a solution for this constellation of signers? We don't want these signature blocks on the last page of the document.

Hi,

If you have our Small Business, Business or Enterprise Plan you choose change the Recipient Role of those who only need to add initials. For example, if Recipient 1 only needs to initial you can change the roles Approver or Acceptor on the Send Page and by adding only an initial field Sign will not add a signature page.

Here is some additional information regarding Recipient Roles - https://helpx.adobe.com/sign/using/set-up-signer-approver-roles.html

I hope this was helpful; be well.

To add, there's a bit more information at the bottom of the following older thread:

Additionally a few related links:

Basically it's a combination of having certain permissions enabled and only certain sign types allow asking just for initials which Adobe of course doesn't make clear one bit
