The packages list
Open E-Sign from the sidebar. The Packages tab is the default view — every package you’ve drafted, sent, or completed.
The table
| Column | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Name | The package name. Defaults to the template name or Signing Package — (client name). |
| Status | Color-coded package status badge. |
| Mode | Parallel or sequential. |
| Sent | When the package was sent (or — if still a draft). |
| Completed | When every signer signed (or —). |
| Created | When you created the draft. |
Click any row to open the package detail (status, recipients, documents, audit trail).
Filters
Above the table:
| Filter | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Search | Input | Matches anywhere in the package name. |
| Client | Dropdown | Single client filter. |
| Status | Multi-select | Toggle any of the statuses on. |
| Clear all | Button | Visible when at least one filter is active. |
| Result count | Caption | N package(s). |
Filters apply over the most recent results — there’s no paging through older packages yet.
Useful slices
| Goal | How to filter |
|---|---|
| ”Show me everything still out there” | Status: Sent, Viewed, Partially signed. |
| ”Drafts I haven’t sent” | Status: Draft. |
| ”Completed this season” | Status: Completed. Sort by Completed date. |
| ”Awaiting my countersignature” | Status: Partially signed and a countersigner is pending. Eyeball the list for now. |
| ”Declined or expired” | Status: Declined, Expired. The list of “you need to talk to the client” rows. |
How to send a bulk reminder
There’s no checkbox column for bulk-select in V1. For now, open each package and click Send Reminder in the action bar.
How to create a new package
The page-level CTA — + New signing package — opens the create dialog. The CTA is hidden when there are zero packages: the empty state owns the create button instead, so you don’t have two competing CTAs on the same screen.
The dialog asks two things:
- Who is this for? — search and pick a client.
- What are you sending? — Author a letter, Upload PDFs, or Mix both.
Click Continue. Assure Pro navigates you into the right editor (letter editor or field placer).
See E-sign overview for the three paths.
The empty state
When there are no packages and no filters:
Send your first signature request
Engagement letters, tax authorization forms, audit representation letters, and any document that needs a client signature live here.
A + New signing package action button is the only CTA.
When filters return no matches: No packages match your filters, with a Clear filters button.
Status meaning at a glance
Draft → editing, never sent
Sent → email out, no view yet
Viewed → first open
Partially signed → some signed, others not
Completed → all signers done, signed PDF being prepared
Cancelled → you cancelled
Declined → a signer refused
Expired → expiry date passedWorking with completed packages
When status flips to Completed:
- The action bar shows a Certificate button to download the IRS-compliant audit PDF.
- The signed PDF (each document with every signature applied) is prepared in the background — see the signed PDF preparation.
- A Render failed badge appears if preparation didn’t succeed — click Retry in the package detail.
If the package included an engagement letter, billing kicks off automatically on completion — the retainer invoice fires and the recurring schedule activates if applicable.
Working with in-flight packages
For packages in Sent, Viewed, or Partially signed, you get two actions:
- Send Reminder — sends a fresh email and portal notification to every recipient not yet signed. There’s an 8-hour cooldown between manual reminders.
- Cancel — closes the package. Recipients lose portal access to it.
See Sending, reminding, cancelling.
