Request electronic signatures through the DocuSign service with the DocuSign
integration.  
Importante:  
Starting with the Australia release, HR Document Templates is being prepared for future deprecation. It will be hidden and no longer activated on new instances, but will continue to be supported.

Use [Document Templates](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/CLhHPzMDfL6oJ6lOzXVr6A "With the ServiceNow Document Templates application, you can create HTML and PDF document templates to generate standard letters or documents. You can automate and simplify the process of filling, signing, and reviewing a document online.") and [Document Template integration with Docusign](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/Rkwzi6spyelrU~tn8f9vJA "The ServiceNow Document Template integration with Docusign application enables you to use the Docusign application for signing documents that are generated from ServiceNow Document Templates.") that provide the latest experience for this functionality. For migration guidelines, see [Migrating from HR Document Templates to Document Templates](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/6sGo8iXlrqVNNp1jDNT~JA#migration-hrdt-dt "Review these guidelines to successfully migrate from HR Document Templates to Document Templates. Document Templates provides the latest experience of HR Document Templates functionality with additional features and capabilities.").

For deprecation details, see the [Deprecation Process \[KB0867184\]](https://support.servicenow.com/kb?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0867184) article in the Now Support knowledge base.

This integration depends on the DocuSign spoke in IntegrationHub, and is enabled for the
signing of ad hoc documents (HR PDF document templates) and DocuSign templates. A
preconfigured HR service, flow, and HR case template for both the ad hoc document flow and
DocuSign template flow are available to use.

## DocuSign spoke {#docusign-integration-for-hr__section_y1g_1p2_h3b}

The DocuSign integration depends on the DocuSign spoke in IntegrationHub. Before you begin,
an admin must have set up the DocuSign spoke, including registering as an OAuth provider and
creating credential and connection records. You must also synchronize DocuSign with your ServiceNow instance.

* Set up DocuSign spoke. See [Docusign eSignature Spoke](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=docusign-spoke&version=australia&pubname=australia-integrate-applications&ft:locale=en-US).
* [Sychronize DocuSign with
  ServiceNow](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=sync-docusign-servicenow&version=australia&pubname=australia-integrate-applications&ft:locale=en-US)  
  Nota:  
  * You must synchronize each time you need to get new or updated DocuSign templates. To synchronize, navigate to DocuSignAccounts and click the Get Accounts related link.
  * If your organization has more than one DocuSign account, the ad hoc document flow uses the first available account.

## DocuSign integration setup {#docusign-integration-for-hr__section_dhc_w41_zhb}

Once the DocuSign spoke is set up and synchronized, you can configure the integration for
HR. Depending on whether the user is signing an ad hoc document (HR PDF document template)
or a DocuSign template, the integration has two flows that you can use. For each document
that you want to make available for signing through the DocuSign service, configure as
follows.
{#docusign-integration-for-hr__table_d5t_hrj_b3b__entry__2}

| Flow | Configuration requirements |
|-|-|
| Ad hoc document flow | 1. Create a managed document that you want to make available for signing. See [Managed Documents](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=c_ManagedDocuments&version=australia&pubname=australia-servicenow-platform&ft:locale=en-US) for more information. 2.

[Tabela 1. DocuSign integration configuration requirements]

{#docusign-integration-for-hr__table_d5t_hrj_b3b}

The ad hoc document flow is for the signing of static documents that originate from a
managed document in the ServiceNow system. Each ad hoc document is
configured as a standard HR PDF document template. You can add signers to the document with
Mark Signatures, and then map each signature field to an
appropriate user field in a table. (The positioning of the markings are not used, and the
DocuSign integration allows the signer to sign anywhere in the document.) You can also parse
the PDF to map document fields to corresponding table fields to auto-populate the document
when it is generated for signing. The generated document is static, which means that it is
read-only and the signatory cannot update any of the fields.

The DocuSign template flow is for the signing of dynamic documents that originate from the
DocuSign system. Each DocuSign template is brought into the ServiceNow
system, and then configured into an HR PDF document template to enable mappings. You must
map each signature field from the DocuSign template to an appropriate user field in a table.
You can also map fields from the DocuSign template to corresponding table fields to
auto-populate the document for signing. The generated document is dynamic, which means that
the signatory can write in editable fields, such as to update an address or provide W-4
information. However, any updates made are saved to the document only. They are not mapped
back to the source table.

## Requesting electronic signatures through the DocuSign service {#docusign-integration-for-hr__section_dnq_s1m_f3b}

Once the integration setup is complete, HR agents from your organization can request
electronic signatures through the DocuSign service.

For more information, see [Request an electronic signature through the Docusign service](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/V3wTXf1Ien1rAivsJkccLw "Request an electronic signature through the DocuSign service. When the case state changes to Ready, the flow triggers and creates DocuSign tasks for all of the signers. For parallel signing, the tasks are assigned all at once. For serial signing, the tasks are created in the order defined.").
