Sign Your Workflow Documents
All the documents packages that you have shared (with other users for processing) or have been shared with you (by others) are listed in the "Status" screen of your SharePoint account. Here you can enjoy the document owner view for all your shared (i.e. sent and received) documents, and can sign your "Pending" documents.
Before you proceed to sign a package:
+ You must have the SH-CHECKSTATUS and SH-SIGN permissions in the add-in, and
+ Required SharePoint permissions.
