Patent number: 11537782Abstract: A document management system sends a distinct copy of a set of documents to each of a plurality of recipients in a bulk sending process, producing a batch of document sets. The document management system can facilitate the performance of a bulk action on the batch of document sets by a sending entity. Examples include a bulk corrective action, a bulk void action, a bulk re-send action, and a bulk download action. In addition, the document management system can identify document sets sent separately that are likely parts of a batch of document sets using one or more similarity criteria. The document management system can recommend that a sending entity combine the identified document sets into a batch of document sets, enabling the sending entity to perform bulk actions on the document sets.Type: GrantFiled: April 29, 2022Date of Patent: December 27, 2022Assignee: DocuSign, Inc.Inventors: Robert Reynolds, Zdravko Pavlinov Peev, Michael Brian Bresloff, Ekenechukwu Anene, Janice Bae, Harshavardhana Ashok

Publication number: 20220374583Abstract: A document management system sends a distinct copy of a set of documents to each of a plurality of recipients in a bulk sending process. Each copy is associated with one or more actions to be taken by a corresponding recipient. The document management system generates an interface that displays, for each copy of the set of documents, the recipient of the copy and a status of the copy. The document management system receives an identification of a subset of the copies of the set of documents. The document management system performs a bulk action on each of the subset of the copies without performing the bulk action on any remaining copies of the set of documents.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 24, 2021Publication date: November 24, 2022Inventors: Michael Bresloff, Robert Reynolds
