Conditional Fields
Show or hide date fields based on prior answers or signer role to simplify the signing experience and avoid irrelevant fields for certain participants.
Including a date field next to a signature clarifies timing, supports legal intent, and improves record accuracy for audits and compliance obligations.

Ensuring the date field is prominent and linked to the signature improves downstream compliance, reconciliation, and archival processes.
