Introducing Document Visibility in Zoho Sign

Introducing Document Visibility in Zoho Sign

Hello!


Complex document workflows often involve multiple stakeholders with different roles. Sending a separate envelope to every person is time consuming and can lead to administrative bottlenecks. With Zoho Sign's document visibility feature, you can include multiple documents in a single envelope while ensuring each recipient only sees what's relevant to them.

For example, an HR manager can bundle onboarding documents—such as an offer letter, a policy agreement, and internal payroll information—into a single envelope. The employee will only view and sign the documents assigned to them, while the payroll details are only accessible to the finance team.

HR manager

Offer letter

Internal payroll information

Policy agreement


Why use document visibility?

  1. Document confidentiality: Ensure sensitive documents are only visible to authorized signers.
  2. Streamline agreement workflow: Manage complex document workflows easily by adding multiple agreements and signers in the same workflow, rather than managing several requests.
  3. Enhanced signer experience: Provide a cleaner, more focused signing experience that leads to faster completions.

Who can benefit?

This feature is for any team that needs finer control over multi-stakeholder workflows:

  • HR: Send onboarding packages while keeping internal approvals private.

  • Finance: Process payroll and budget approvals without exposing internal workflows.

  • Sales: Share customer agreements without sharing confidential approval documents.

  • IT: Distribute policies while keeping sensitive security information internal.

How to enable document visibility

This feature is available in the Enterprise edition. Zoho Sign administrators can enable it by going to Settings >Account Settings > Sending options > Document visibility.
