    If you are in Adobe Sign, you could drag an input field onto the page, then double click the field to access the properties, rename your input field by clicking the pencil (in the example I called mine "now"), change the value type to calculated value, a formula input will appear click the "F(x)" icon.

     

    In the pop up window choose functions, then click date on left hand side, then in right hand side double click "now()". This will may your input box have the date and time. Caveat is that it will be in a seperate field to the signature.

     Hope this helps.

    Hey Richlewis,

     

    Looking at the description given above, it seems you are adding your Signature & Date before sending the document "for signature" and willing to add a time stamp too, which is currently unavailable?

    Did you create the form within Acrobat DC using "Prepare form" tool? Would you mind confirming, how exactly you have added Signature & Date.

     

    • While sending document for signature via Adobe Sign, there isn't any predefine feature which can help you adding time stamp. 
    • In order to include Time stamp, what you can do is to either add "Digital Signature" or add Time Stamp to the file and then convert to Adobe Sign form to "send for signature"

     

    Thanks,

    Hi Moses,

     

    Thank you for reaching out.

     

    If you wish to get the date and time stamp with the signature, you may try the Digital Signature option under the Signature fields in Adobe Sign.  I am afraid to say that there is no option by default in Adobe Sign to add the date and time stamp with the signature. However, the information is always available in the audit report for the document.

    As MagentaSA suggested, you may add a separate field for that in the form.

     

    Let us know if you have any questions.

     

    Thanks,

    Meenakshi
