Paper signing and revoking a signing

Overview#

Paper contracts become Active once you record the signing date; reminders and billing then work as usual. To revoke a signed contract, record a reason.

Signing on paper#

1. Finalize with the signing method set to paper.
2. Download a PDF or Word file, print it and sign / stamp it with the other party.
3. Click 締結を登録 (Record signing), enter the signing date and the counterparty signer. You can also attach a scan of the stamped copy.

Sent for e-signature, but a stamped copy came back#

Some people print the emailed PDF, stamp it and send back a scan or a phone photo. Register that copy to conclude the contract.

1. Check the returned copy matches what you sent (amounts, term, clauses and where it is stamped).
2. On the contract, click 押印済みの書面を登録 (Register stamped copy) under Awaiting signature (or ⋯ → Register stamped copy).
3. Choose the PDF or photos, enter the signing date and signer, and click Record signing.

• The contract becomes Active; reminders and billing work as usual.
• The pending signing request is cancelled, so the signing link stops working and the contract cannot be signed twice.
• Open the copy from Stamped copy on the status card or Download ▾ → Stamped copy (PDF).

You can attach or replace the stamped copy later from the status card; replaced files are kept in the record.

Revoking a signing#

Open ⋯ → 締結を取り消す (Revoke signing), enter a reason, optionally notify the signer by email (e-signature only), confirm, and the history card records it. The contract returns to its state before signing; a stamped copy is kept.

FAQ#

• Can I delete a signed contract? No. Signed contracts and contracts with child contracts cannot be deleted.
