Why Keep E-Signatures Inside Your DMS?

Signing in a separate app creates a second copy. Signing in TurboDMS keeps the draft, the signed file, and the evidence on one record.

Signed file stays with the record

Completed signatures remain in the same folder, version history, and permission set—so you are not hunting inboxes for Contract_SIGNED.pdf.

Tamper-evident completion evidence

Each completed request stores signer identity, timestamps, IP address, and a SHA-256 hash of the document so you can verify the file later.

No extra e-sign seat

Electronic signatures are part of TurboDMS. You do not need a second per-envelope or per-user signing product for day-to-day contracts and policy acknowledgments.

From draft to signed record

Invite one signer or a sequence

Start from a document already in the repository. Invite internal users or external parties with a signing link. Use sequential order when legal must sign before the counterparty, or parallel signing when roles are independent.

  • Optional signing order
  • Public signing links for clients and vendors
  • Freeze the version before invitations go out

Keep proof next to the file

Completion details live with the document: who signed, when, from which IP, and the SHA-256 hash used to verify the PDF. Pair signing with role-based access so only the right people can launch or download executed agreements.

Requirements for electronic signatures vary by jurisdiction and document type. Confirm with counsel which transactions need extra formalities in your region. Read the longer explainer: electronic signatures inside document management.

PDF e-signature questions

Can external people sign without a TurboDMS account?

Yes. You can send a signing link so clients, vendors, or new hires complete the signature without a full product login.

Where does the signed PDF go?

It stays on the same document record in your repository, with version history and folder permissions—not as a loose attachment in email.

How do I verify a signed file later?

TurboDMS stores a SHA-256 hash of the document with the completion details. You can compare that hash with a checksum of the PDF you hold.
