Docusign for Nonprofits

IAM applications include more functionality than eSignature plans and provide an opportunity for eSignature customers to upgrade and enhance their current set of capabilities. The applications are designed and pre-packaged to transform how organizations manage end-to-end agreement processes. This includes the ability to customize workflows with modular capabilities via Docusign Maestro, available via IAM for Customer Experience.

An ‘Envelope’ is an electronic record containing one or more documents uploaded to the Docusign eSignature service for signature processing, and the unit by which usage allowances with Docusign eSignature plans are measured. An Envelope can have one or many signers. Envelopes have statuses (e.g., sent, delivered, completed, voided) and also contain information about the sender and timestamps that indicate the progress of the delivery procedure. Regardless of how many documents, fields and signers a given envelope contains, it still counts only once towards your eSignature plan’s Envelope allowance once it is sent out for signature.
