After a contract document has been reviewed and finalized, send the document for signature.

## Antes de Iniciar

The contract document must have been reviewed and finalized, and the contract status must be set to Document ready. For more information, see [Review a contract document in your workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/twJob_ZRPBWVD2abPNdaXA "As a contract user, review a contract document and submit a change request to the contract fulfiller if changes are required in the contract document.") and [Work on a contract change request](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/GievG69FRVY2jibW6gCLSA "As a contract fulfiller, review the change request, update the contract document, and send it back to the contract user.").

If the contract request is linked to a parent contract request, the parent request must be in Contract signed or Closed complete state.
