Splitters are your holding stages for e-signature relationships, and can ensure that workflows are not initiated until such time that some action is taken on the e-signature transactions. Learn how to set a splitter up and how to leverage the e-Signature statuses at the relationship levels.

What is an eSignature Splitter?

The eSignature Splitter is first and foremost a property that is required after each and every eSignature Support relationship. If you design a workflow with an eSignature Support relationship, you must include an eSignature Splitter.

The eSignature Splitter syncs TAP with your eSignature provider to ensure that the signature is appropriately understood by TAP. With eSignature Splitter enabled, it is possible to route a workflow based on conditions relevant to esignature: for example, with eSignature enabled you can route an eSignature workflow back to the requester if a document was aborted and otherwise allow signed documents to travel down a different path.

How to Configure eSignature Splitter

1. It is only possible (or, for that matter, sensical) to configure eSignature splitters after an esignature support relationship.

2. To set up eSignature Splitter, select the stage that follows your eSignature relationship. Then, in workflow properties, select "eSignature Splitter."

3. After selecting eSignature Splitter, a drop down will appear. The options of this drop down will be identical to the name of every eSignature support-enabled relationship in your workflow.

4. Select the option such that your eSignature Splitter is enabled to react to the eSignature Support relationship that most immediately precedes it.

5. Click update.

Note: There can only be one eSignature Splitter for every eSignature relationship. You cannot have multiple eSignature Support relationships intersect with an eSignature Splitter stage.
