How to Send an eDoc With Multiple Signers (8879 with KBA example)
Here's how:
1. Click +Add New.
2. Click eDoc.
3. Click in the To field to add the first recipient.

5. Click OK to add the recipient.
6. To add an additional recipient, repeat steps 3 - 5.
7. Keep Signing Order on or click the toggle to turn it off.
Note: Signing order will send the document to the first recipient and will not send to the second recipient until the first recipient has signed and completed their portion of the document.
8. If Signing Order is on, click Assign Order/KBA to decide who should receive the document first
9. Drag & drop the recipient to number 1 that should sign first. Click the KBA checkbox only if the document is an 8879 and needs identity verification.
Note: The task details will indicate if KBA is enabled
10. Add an Agreement Title. (Note: Recipients will receive an email notification that says "Please Sign [AgreementTitle]", for example: "Please Sign 8879".)
11. Add a Description.
