HoorayHR allows you to easily sign documents digitally. This can be done by both colleagues and external parties. Useful for employment contracts or confidentiality agreements, for example.

What does digital signing cost?

As an HoorayHR-Admin, you have the option of having documents digitally signed, saving you time and hassle.

Every HoorayHR user has a profile, which contains all their personal information and documents. Within each profile, you can sign up to 3 documents per year for free. This means you can sign 3 documents at no extra cost.

In summary, per HoorayHR user, you can sign up to 3 documents per year for free. All additional documents will be charged a fee of €1.10 eur per document.

You can keep an eye on your costs in your subscription overview here.

Signing a document

Simple! Choose a document from the list of documents. Once you're on the document page, select 'Sign' in the upper right corner under the 'Actions' button. Or from the sign section on the document page itself, click 'Start'.

Select signers

Next, a window opens. You choose which colleagues (or externals) should sign. You can also optionally set the order in which the signatures must be made.

Set settings within CM.com

You are now in the CM.com environment, here you can easily indicate where signatures should be placed and you can then offer the document for signature to the previously selected signers.

Signing

From HoorayHR, invitations are then sent to the signers, they are invited (in order) to sign the document. The invited signers click on the link in the email and sign (or decline) the document. You can see in the document page in HoorayHR exactly what the status of the signing is. For example, if someone has already signed and it's the next person's turn to sign, or if someone is waiting.

Confirmation

Once the document has been successfully signed by all signers, you will receive a confirmation in the mail, with the signed document attached.

Done!

The signed document is now also available for download in HoorayHR. Go to the document in question and select the download icon. Then you can choose which document you want to download:

  • The original document

  • The signed document

  • The certificate (this is the legal document)

Revoke digital signing again? You can. Go to the document page, in the signing section you can select 'Revoke' at the top right. Keep in mind that the document will then also no longer be shared.
