# Select an HR document template for an e-signature task

# Select an HR document template for an e-signature task {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Brazil  
Updated September 10, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
If the document type of the e-signature template is an HR document template, select the HR document template that the signatory will sign on the HR case form.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn_hr_core.basic or sn_hr_core.case_writer

Depending on the HR service you use to request the e-signature, you may need to configure the HR case form. Configure it so that the PDF template field appears and an HR document template can be
selected.

## Procedure

1. Navigate to HR Case Management, and create a new or open an existing HR case.
2. On the HR case form, in the PDF Template field, select an HR document template.  
   Note:  
   If the PDF Template field is not visible, make sure that the HR case form for the HR service you are using is configured to show that field. See [Configure the HR case form for an HR service](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/J2te33_vqARBaPs_AzNh3A#configure-case-form-for-hr-service "Configure the fields that appear on the HR case form for an HR service.") for more information, and also [HR case form configuration examples](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/J2te33_vqARBaPs_AzNh3A#examples-of-hr-case-form-configurations "Examples on how to configure the HR case form for an HR service.") for an e-signature-specific example.  
3. Assign the case to a user.
4. Click Ready to Work.

1. Click Start Work.
2. Click Preview Document.
3. From the Preview Document window, click Generate to generate the document for signing. The document to sign is added as an attachment to the HR case form.
