Departments should review their business processes and paper forms to determine what can be digitized and put in a DocuSign signature flow. Departments should identify one or a few personnel to develop and maintain department owned forms (templates) in DocuSign. There are training videos to review as well as guides and responsibilities when a user takes on enhanced privileges of a GT Admin in DocuSign.
After reviewing the training content and responsibilities available under the Support > GT Templates & Forms section, the person requesting enhanced DocuSign features can submit a request to have their account provisioned for template creation. After completion of the training and request to become an admin, an account can be provisioned with these elevated features. Resources for DocuSign Users Provisioned for Template Creation
Templates must be reviewed and approved by the DocuSign Admins before the DocuSign Admins will publish them for campus use. Georgia Tech DocuSign is a shared environment. The review and approval process ensure rightful form owners have created accurate forms, have addressed departmental support for their forms, and have provided clear instructions on how users should access and complete DocuSign forms. FAILURE TO SUBMIT YOUR TEMPLATE FOR REVIEW PRIOR TO SHARING WITH THE CAMPUS WILL RESULT IN REVOKING YOUR ENHANCED PRIVILEGES.
PLAN YOUR TEMPLATE RELEASE TIMELINES ACCORDINGLY AND ALLOW SUFFICIENT TIME FOR THE FOLLOWING PHASES:
Download the following DocuSign Template Review and Approval Request form as a checklist of required template components and as a means to submit the necessary information when requesting review. Complete the request form and email to the DocuSign Admins. Requests will be added to the template review queue and processed as quickly as possible.
