Void and resend notifications
Resending a notification
If a signer hasn't received or can't find their signing email, you can send them a fresh one without voiding the envelope.
- Open the envelope detail view (click the envelope title in the list).
- Find the signer in the Signers section.
- Click Resend notification next to their name.
- A new email is dispatched immediately with a fresh signing link. The previous link remains valid until the new one is used.
Resending is available for any signer whose status is Notified or Viewed. It is not available for signers who have already Completed their signing.
Voiding an envelope
Voiding cancels the entire envelope. All signers who have not yet completed are notified that the request has been withdrawn.
- Open the envelope detail view.
- Click Void envelope (in the action menu or the detail header).
- Optionally add a reason — this is included in the cancellation notification sent to signers.
- Confirm the void.
When to void vs when to resend
| Situation | Action |
|---|---|
| Signer didn't receive the email | Resend notification |
| Signer can't find the email | Resend notification |
| Signing link expired | Resend notification |
| Wrong signer email address | Void, then create a new envelope |
| Document needs to be changed | Void, then create a new envelope |
| Deal fell through | Void with an explanatory reason |
Signers who decline
If a signer clicks Decline instead of signing, the envelope moves to Declined status. You cannot resend to a declined signer on the same envelope — void it and create a new one if you want to try again.
