Overview
This document details how to add a signature to a user’s settings in CMPOnline. This process allows a document to automatically generate the user or the responsible attorney’s signature without need for editing after generation.
Please keep in mind that this is different from creating a signature used in enhanced email automation. For more information on this, view our Adding an Enhanced Email Signature help file.
