Managing Transactions & Templates

A transaction is an e-signature process within OneSpan Sign. A transaction usually contains: (1) up to ten documents; (2) one or more recipients. The sender of a transaction therefore generally performs the following procedures: Creates a Transaction > Adds Documents > Adds Recipients > Prepares the Documents for Signing.

Transaction templates are a convenient way to save transactions for reuse.

This section describes the following topics, which are relevant to managing transactions and templates:

• Creating Transactions

• Ad Hoc Creation

• Editing transactions

• Editing Transactions with a Status other than Draft

• Deleting Transactions

• Managing Transaction Reminders

• Synchronizing Salesforce Transaction Status with OneSpan Sign

• Viewing a Completed Transaction's Evidence Summary

• Downloading a Completed Transaction

• Managing Transaction Templates

• Video Tutorial

Once a transaction or template has been created, you can add documents, add recipients, and prepare documents before distributing the documents to recipients.

When creating or editing a transaction you should save your changes before refreshing or moving away from the page you are on. Your changes may be lost if you do not save.

Creating Transactions

To create a document transaction:

1. On the OneSpan Sign Embedded Integration for Salesforce menu, click Transactions > New Transaction . A New Transaction dialog box appears.

   If you do not see the New Transaction dialog box, verify that it has not been blocked by a pop-up blocker on your browser. Sometimes the pop-up blocked icon can be hard to see, or accidentally dismissed.

2. Select one of the following ways of creating a transaction and click Next:

   • Ad Hoc Creation — This option creates a new transaction from scratch.

   • Create from Template — This option creates a transaction from an existing template.

   These options only appear if there are active templates in the system. If there are no active templates then you will taken directly to the Transaction Edit page.

Ad Hoc Creation

To complete the process of ad hoc creation:

1. On the Details tab, type a Transaction Name.

2. Optional: Select an object type from the Related object type list. This list contains both Standard Objects (e.g., Accounts, Leads, Opportunities) and Custom Objects. Select the appropriate object in the subsequent search field.

3. Optional: If you need to set any of the following options, click the Advanced Options tab:

   Option	Description
   Expiry Date	Use this to specify a date after which the transaction can no longer be signed.
   eSignLive Convention	Select a Convention if you want to automatically inject Signature Blocks and other fields into the transaction's documents. Note that you will need to assign Recipient Labels to recipients.
   Email Message	Use this to write a message that will appear in the invitation email sent to the transaction's recipients.
   Auto-prepare with Text Tags	Select this option if you want your selected Convention to use Text Tags to position OneSpan Sign fields in the transaction's documents. This option is disabled by default.
   Language	Use the drop-down box to select the language that will be used in the transaction email sent to recipients.
   Insert Salesforce Values	When this option is enabled, defined Field Mappings insert Salesforce field values into the transaction's documents once the transaction is prepared. This option is disabled by default, but it is automatically enabled when a Convention is selected.
   In-Person Signing	Enable this if you want the transaction to be signed in-person by all recipients on a single device.
   Write Back to Salesforce Fields	When this option is enabled, defined Field Mappings write information entered by recipients during the Signer Experience back into Salesforce fields. This writeback is performed once the transaction is completed. This option is disabled by default, but is automatically enabled when a Convention is selected.The Writeback feature cannot operate unless the Insert option is enabled.
   Review Before Completing	Allows you to review this transaction and its documents after all signatures have been collected but before marking it as complete. Transactions with attachments require your review.
   Enable Chatter Updates	Enables you to update the Chatter Feed with activity related to this transaction.
   Managing Transaction Reminders	Use these parameters to create a Reminder Schedule that will remind recipients to sign their documents.
   Days Before Sending the First Reminder	Specify when the first reminder will be sent — i.e., the number of days after the initial email invitation is sent.
   Days Between Reminders	Specify the number of days between successive reminders.
   Numbers of Reminders to Send	Specify the total number of reminders to be sent.

4. The next step is to add documents, add recipients, and prepare documents with signature fields before distributing the documents to recipients.
