Random Issue with Multiple Signers

  • March 6, 2018

I have used Adobe Sign for a year or so.  I am a very experienced user.  I regularly send documents to the same ten people for electronic signing.  Over the last month or so, an issue has arisen where one of the ten recipients is unable to sign--which makes it where the document is never finalized.  The user email addresses have always been the same, and the recipient which cannot sign is random--one document someone can't sign and the next one he can and someone else can't.  I have done nothing different and cannot figure this out.  I have noticed when I go to the manage panel and look at the status of the document, the prohibited user's email does not list their name--for example:

John Doe, Susan Smith, Bob, Jane Doe.[personal details removed by moderator] 

In this example, [personal details removed by moderator] Bob is the recipient not able to sign the document, although Bob has signed many documents in the past, and would be able to sign another one if I sent it--but then Susan wouldn't be able to, and her name would be missing before her email.

Someone please help me figure this out.  It's driving me crazy.

Thanks!@

    Hi Davep,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    If this issue occurs with some particular users, then there seems to be an issue on the signer's end.

    I did check the email address of the recipient you have shared above and who is not able to sign the document.

    I see that the account for that user is not active. That may be the reason he was not able to sign the document.

    Could you please share the email address of the users in the private message who are not able to sign the documents.

    Take help of the steps here How Do I Send Private Message to initiate the private message.

    This is just to confirm if it is an issue with the document or with the signer's account.

    NOTE: Please do not share the email address on the Forums.

    I will be deleting the email addresses you have shared above.

    Let us know if you have any questions.

    Hi, 

    I have multiple documents signed between third parties nearly every single day and have been using Adobe Sign for the past 4 years as the sole means of doing this. Last week, I distributed a document for signature to two signers. Signer A was able to easily sign the document within seconds. Signer B is battling. He has advised that he's tried to sign the document by clicking on the "sign document" tab once he has completed signature on multiple occasions, but from my side, the document is not signed and merely reflects that he has viewed the agreement. I'd appreciate some input please.

    Hi Michelle3179452885ii,

     

    Thank you for reaching out, and sorry about the delay in response.

     

    Please ask the signer to clear the cache and cookies. If that does not work, try opening the document on an alternate browser or a new incognito window on the Chrome browser.

    Let us know if you need any help.

     

    Thanks,

    Meenakshi
