The DocuSign add-on has the ability to upload signed documents to Synergy in the background. You need to copy the batch file (GLMSysDocuSignBackgroundJob.cmd) available in the setup/installer. The batch file make use of the Exact.Process.exe to run the upload signed document.

In the cmd file there is a virtual directory, change this directory to your Exact Synergy virtual directory from where the Exact Synergy is running. Create a task schedule using Windows Task Scheduler or a SQL Job for these command files, which will start the upload process for signed documents to Exact Synergy on a defined schedule. These jobs can be set up in the same way as other standard Exact Synergy jobs.

To allow users to use the DocuSign add-on in Synergy, you must first add the eSignature role by going to HRM: Person and assigning the new role. Docusign
