Adobe Sign Extension - Integrations - Online Help - Zoho CRM

Adobe Sign

Digitally signed documents can be collected easily from customers and prospects with the Adobe Sign extension in your Zoho CRM account. When your business requires you to get documents approved and signed on time for a deal to be successfully completed, why waste time in sending hard copies by mail. You can use the Adobe Sign extension to send documents to leads and contacts via email and get a copy of the signed document attached to the CRM record for future reference.

This extension is supported for the Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Deals, Quotes, Invoices, Purchase Orders and Sales Orders modules. Apart from leads and contacts, for the rest of the records, document will be sent to the associated contacts. Quotes, Invoices, Purchase Orders and Sales Orders are generated as PDF files. Templates can be created for these records and the documents can be sent for signature using this extension. On installing this extension, three custom modules will be created. Based on the terminology used in Adobe Sign, these modules are named.

Agreements - This refers to each process of sending documents and getting them signed by the customers or prospects.
AgreementEvents - This module captures details on the date and time the documents were sent for signature and when they were signed.
AgreementRecipients - This module captures details on the recipients of the document, the order in which they need to sign, etc.

Note
  • Only administrators can install this extension.
  • The email address to sign in to Zoho CRM account and Adobe Sign account should be the same.
  • Please note that the Adobe Sign extension for Zoho CRM is available in US, IN, CA, and JP datacenters.
