Be sure to provide your name, employee ID, email address, extension, effective date and department name to your business owner. Also indicate that you are requesting to become a Group Administrator (which gives you workflow access) or need to be put in a specific Adobe Acrobat Sign group.

For business owners, view the instructions to initiate the Adobe Access Request form to learn how to initiate the request form.

Adobe Acrobat Sign accounts are used to send forms for signature reflecting what account the form is from. When a department/business process account needs a separate account within their department or for a specific business process, an account can be requested. For example, the main Information Technology department account needs a separate Human Resources related group to process HR related IT forms, agreements, and workflows so an Information Technology - HR* account is created. An example of a business process account is an account created for ongoing process that includes agreements, templates, workflows and a Box repository for the completed agreements, if needed. A generic email account is added to the business process account and access is granted to users.

To request a group account, please log in to Adobe Acrobat Sign. Access the workflow titled: Adobe Sign Department or Business Account Request. The workflow will guide you through filling out the request.

For any questions, please email adob...@csun.edu.

A supervisor can use the Adobe Acrobat Sign Removal Request form to request the removal of an employee from their Adobe Sign group. Access the form through the Use a Workflow dropdown menu.

Department, college or division forms that are typically printed and signed should go through Adobe Acrobat Sign. Paper-based forms that are typically sent by mail, email or campus mail that require a wet signature should transition to Adobe Acrobat Sign.

*Note: Forms or documents containing Confidential Level 1 data should not be sent through Adobe Acrobat Sign.

Workflows can tailor the signing process to fit your specific needs. Administrators can design, manage and share workflows with senders. Using workflows, an admin can set up specific signers that always remain on an agreement and also those signers that may change from time to time. Workflows can be shared from group to group.
