Read on for more information on all of the capabilities in this release.

New integrations and features in Docusign eSignature

Docusign eSignature not only lets people conduct business from practically anywhere, it’s also easier, less expensive and more secure than traditional paper-based processes. That’s why we’re thrilled to share the following eSignature enhancements designed to improve the efficiency of signature workflows, deliver an embedded signing experience in the apps you already use and ensure the most secure identity verification processes.

Elevate the signing experience

• Elastic Signing enables organisations to deliver a personalised signing experience that is fast and seamless. Organisations can provide a fully customisable UI across their websites and mobile apps, display content based on conditional logic, and let users sign with the click of a button for a digital-first experience that drives higher completion. Available November for Enterprise Pro.

Automate and streamline workflows within Microsoft apps

• Docusign eSignature Power Automate enhancements allow users to automatically trigger an envelope with pre-populated data and send for signature. Now, whether it’s creating a Docusign transaction based on an external event or triggering a downstream action based on a Docusign envelope changing status, you can integrate agreement tasks with clicks, not code, with Microsoft Power Automate. Available now. 

• Docusign eSignature Teams enhancements allow users to send and sign agreements natively, within Teams. Previously, users would have to leave Teams and go to the Docusign platform to complete the sending/signing workflows. Available now. 

• Docusign eSignature SharePoint enhancements allow users to pre-populate data from SharePoint Lists into eSignature fields and write data into SharePoint Lists from completed eSignature envelopes. These enhancements further enable customers to connect agreement workflows directly to document storage and management. Available now.

Enhance identity verification for signers and notaries

• Docusign ID Verification eID enhancements allows UK and France-based signers to prove their identity with new bank and eID methods for fast and secure digital identification that meets ID verification requirements for Advanced Electronic Signatures (AES). Available now. 

New integrations and features in Docusign CLM 

Connect and automate your agreement process with contract lifecycle management and document generation innovations. We’re excited to share the following Docusign CLM enhancements designed to increase usability, reportability and visibility for our customers. 

Accelerate internal review and analyse workflows

• Docusign CLM Essentials document review allows users to speed up the internal review process with a more user-friendly experience. This document review experience provides a new interface, with a modern look and feel, that's easy to navigate and is better optimised for desktop and mobile. This experience is more accessible than before as it allows users with visual impairments to navigate using their keyboard and have text, actions and comments within the document translated into speech using their device’s screen reader. Available early December.

• Docusign CLM Essentials process reporting allows admins to analyse the efficiency of their workflow processes and quickly identify bottlenecks. Report data shows how long workflows and the steps within take to complete, so admins can make improvements as needed. They can also recognise delays at the individual-level for fast action and resolution. Available early December. 

Increase contract visibility

• Docusign CLM auto-renewals reporting provides users with improved insights regarding contract renewal types and notice periods, helping users to determine when to take action to terminate or let a contract auto-renew. The new agreements approaching renewal report helps customers better understand auto-renewals by giving greater visibility into items such as termination date (i.e., the last date a contract can be terminated before it auto-renews), renewal date, and expiration date. Available November.
