DocuSign Services enables customers to electronically sign any type of document associated with quotes or contracts. By integrating with DocuSign, customers can streamline the Quote-to-Cash process, improve responsiveness, and eliminate errors. The adapter allows users to obtain electronic signatures for documents associated with quotes or contracts and automatically update the status - all inside Salesforce.

When it's time to obtain final approvals for a quote or contract, this adapter provides a streamlined point-and-click way for users to send attachments for electronic signature. Within the quote or contract, the Send for eSignature feature allows users to dramatically shorten approval cycles by quickly compiling the necessary documents, selecting the right contacts from their Salesforce instance and easily sending personalized emails. As documents are routed, this adapter ensures that documents adhere to the appropriate workflows. When legal documents are approved via DocuSign, the signature status is automatically updated inside Salesforce, and final signed documents are automatically attached to the quote or contract. With this adapter, you have a fully secure, auditable and trackable view of who has approved your documents for quotes or contracts.

This adapter is part of the Quote-to-Cash suite, which provides comprehensive capabilities for Conga CPQ, Conga CLM and Revenue Management. Conga solutions are built on the Salesforce platform, which means that all pricing, contracts, products, and deals are managed in the world's most scalable, robust and secure cloud platform - all inside Salesforce.
