To view the File Maintenance page, navigate to View Files from the home screen of the Sertifi portal. Navigate to your file, and then click on the file name.
Documents awaiting signature/Signed documents
When you access the File maintenance page, either your documents awaiting signature, or your signed documents appear at the top of the page.
You can see documents awaiting signature if the document hasn't been signed yet, or if you chose to invite signers to the document at a later time, than at file creation. When the documents are still awaiting signature, you have a few actions you can take on the document.
Click Prefill/Add Locations to either prefill forms on the document, or add Sertifi Intelligent Tags to it. For more information about adding Sertifi Intelligent Tags in the document editor, see Sertifi Intelligent Tags - Document Editor.
- If you pre-fill your form, and you used Sertifi Intelligent Tags to create your form, you might notice the email address of your first signer appearing in the Sertifi Intelligent Tags. This is a visual way for you to see which tags are reserved for each signer. The signer's email doesn't stay populated in the tag once you send for signature.
Click Remove Document to remove a document from the file. When you click Remove Document, a warning appears. Click OK to remove the document, or click Cancel.
Click Replace Document to replace the current document with a new one. When you click Replace Document, the Replace Document screen appears. Enter a title for the replacement, and then click Choose File. Navigate to the new document, select it, and then click Replace Document.
Click Expire Document to expire the document. When you click Expire Document, the document is expired and can no longer receive a signature. To undo this action, click Un-Expire.
You can also add documents in this section by clicking Add Documents. When you click Add Documents, your document library opens. When the document library opens, select or upload as many additional documents as you want to add to the file, and then click Done.
If a document is signed, the document appears at the top of the File Maintenance page, with the date and time the document received signature.
