Before you begin, check the e-signature requirements.
- Open a template that is Ready to send, with no unsaved changes.
- Click Send.
- Choose Staff. Under Who gets it, tick each person, or tick All staff. This option sends to people with a staff role in this business.
- Under What you fill in, fill in the business blanks for each person. Click Preview to check a person's copy before sending.
- Check the Sign by date. It starts two weeks from today, or on the template's Valid until date if that is sooner. Leave it empty for no date.
- Click Send (the paper-plane button on a phone). The confirmation lists everyone who will get a copy. Click Send to confirm.
Each person gets an email with a link to read and sign their copy. After the Sign by date, a contract that is still open shows as Overdue.
Once a template's Valid until date has passed, it can no longer be sent.
What the person signing sees#
For a staff contract, the link in the email opens the contract in the person's Naayya account. They sign in first if needed. They also find it under Account > Contracts, in Sent to you for signature.
Signing has six steps: Read, Details, Uploads, Review, Code, and Sign. Before they fill anything in, they see a notice that explains who is asking for their details, why, and how long each detail is kept.
At the Code step, they tick I agree to sign electronically, click Email me a code, and enter the 6-digit code from the email. The code works for 10 minutes. Then they sign and click Sign the contract. The contract then waits for your countersignature.
