Changing the deadline

Move the deadline of a signing that has already been sent — without starting over.

A deadline that turns out to be wrong can be moved after the document has gone out. Choose Change deadline in the signing's ⋯ menu, or in the … menu of the open document.

The dialog

  • The text tells you the current deadline.
  • New deadline — pick a date, today or later.
  • Save deadline moves it.

What happens

  • The document, the links and any signature already given are kept. No new signing request is created.
  • Everyone who has not signed yet gets an email with the new date.
  • If that email could not reach someone, Brigg tells you who — they still believe the old date applies.

Extending works even after the old deadline has passed: the signers get the email, and the sign button comes back.

Only the person who sent the signing can change its deadline.
