Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a report describing the status of an electronic envelope. The electronic envelope includes a first electronic document to be distributed for electronic signature and an electronic signing template defining a set of at least one task that must be performed by an executor of the first electronic document to complete the electronic signature. The first electronic document is subject to a workflow including a plurality of events. The method includes receiving from a monitoring entity a selection of an identifier of an event of the plurality. The progress of the first electronic document through the workflow is monitored. That the at least one event has occurred with respect to the first electronic document is determined. In response to determining that the at least one event has occurred, the monitoring entity is notified of such.

Abstract: Systems and methods for distributed electronic signature documents. A method for distributed electronic signature documents includes creating a signing template that contains information about how a signable document is to be signed. A signable document is created to be distributed to a signer for signing. The signable document is electronically transmitted to the signer. A message is sent using an activatable control in the signing document to a web signing server to invoke the signing process. A browser window is opened on a signer's computer in order to execute the signing process.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for tagging digital documents. A method for creating digitally tagged documents includes creating a data template for a digital document, assigning signature locations and data fields in the data template, and linking the template instructions with the digital document. A system for creating digitally tagged documents includes a processor; a display; and a memory containing stored programming instructions operable by the processor to create a data template for a digital document, assign signature locations and data fields in the data template, and link template instructions with the digital document.

Abstract: A system, method, and computer programmed product for generating and transferring electronic documents. The invention includes a document system coupled to a plurality of customer systems over a network. Electronic documents are uploaded and stored to the document system from the customer system. The uploaded electronic documents are designated as a single authoritative copy and as a transferable record. A salt value associated with each uploaded electronic document is generated and stored. A digest associated with each uploaded electronic document is generated and stored using the generated salt value. The digested documents are then transferable from a presently designated holder in due course to a new holder in due course.
