I want to sign a document that I created and have the date/time stamp recorded and an audit trail/certificate as well....how?

Adobe Sign is not geared for what you are trying to do (self-signing). The easiest work around is to send it to yourself at a different email address.

Greetings!

When you log in to Adobe Sign, navigate to the Dashboard page.

In the lower left corner, you will see a feature called Fill & Sign.

This feature will allow you to upload a form, fill it in, and apply a signature.

That document will then be found in your "Signed" section on the Manage tag, with a full audit report (and exportable field content) linked from the History tab.

For more details, please refer to this article: Adobe Sign - Fill & Sign

Hello,

Kind of the same issue, but with several recipients: one will sign directly (so I can use Fill & Sign) but the 2 others need to get it by email.

Can I make the 1st one sign and send the document to the 2 others in the meantime, or do I need to make the 1st one sign, save the document and re-send it to the other recipients?

I rather not use the 2nd option, as I am testing the solution to then spread it to a larger number of salespersons...

This sounds like a straight forward multiple signer workflow.

If you (or the sender) are the first party to sign the document, and then two other people need to sign it, configure this way:

1. Navigate to the Send tab
2. In the first recipient field (where the sender has to sign), click the Add Me link
3. In the second recipient record, enter the email for the second signer
4. In the third recipient record, enter the email for the third signer

In multiple signer situations, I strongly recommend checking the Preview & Add Signature Fields box and make sure the field placement is correct.

Once the Send button is clicked to actually send the agreement, it will process the document, and then open it for the sender to fill in their part (and sign if applicable) as the first recipient.
