Verify account settings

Use the account section in RightSignature to configure the settings for administrative tasks. Use Settings to verify changes to your account including:

  • Your Information - this includes your name, email, and avatar.

Blue ink signatures

Select blue ink signature to distinguish a signed original from a photocopy. All original copies will display the signature in blue.

Enable integrations

Allow all your users to view and set the connection with other apps you use. By toggling it off, none of the users will be able to view the Integrations settings to enable/ disable the out-of-box integrations. This is to help centrally control all your users’ access to the available integrations.

Reports

The following reports are available in RightSignature:

  • Overview report - displays the total number of documents sent. This report also provides the average number of documents sent, viewed, and signed. Users are ranked in this report on the number of documents sent each month.

  • Efficiency report - compares the number of signed documents and the total number of documents sent each month. This ratio, presented as a percentage, reflects how efficiently each user collects signatures when sending documents.

  • Cycle time report - displays the average amount of time required to view and sign each users document. These figures reflect how quickly recipients are to execute each users document on a monthly basis.

  • Data exporter - exports the signing data from every copy of a Reusable Template, or every document with a shared tag. The data can be exported as a CSV file. The Data Exporter only pulls data from documents completed from the latest version of a template. Editing a template creates a new version so the Data Exporter will not return data from documents completed before the template was edited.

  • Enterprise report - provides account administrators on Enterprise level accounts the ability to export a complete list of all of the documents sent during a particular month. The data can be exported as a CSV file.

  • New usage report - provides account administrators on Enterprise level accounts the ability to export the number of sent and signed documents, as well as the median cycle time, for each user.
