Resolution
DocuSign Access
Colleges and Departments will be given a DocuSign sub-account within the ISU Organization Account. To understand, think of the ISU Organization Account as a filing cabinet. Your College or Department will be given an account or a drawer in the filing cabinet. Each account must have an administrator from that area who will take the training, set up the account, assign users, roles, and groups, and provide training to their areas. Only those assigned to a specific account (drawer) can manage the documents in that account. Those outside the drawer will be able to fill out and sign documents shared with them by a college or department.  The login page for DocuSign is account.docusign.com
Roles in DocuSign:
Each role requires different access to DocuSign.  Once your administrator has been assigned to your account, they will create and assign roles to individuals.
  • DS Viewer can sign documents, create and save signatures, and track the routing status or workflow in which they are identified as recipients.  They cannot send envelopes.
  • DS Sender can send envelopes to others and have the ability to change routing for subsequent recipients for a given envelope.  They can also use templates and PowerForms.
  • DS Admin can create forms, add and remove users, and have the same access as senders and signers.
