Form our Forums: I think this is a big functional gap to not have a field which captures a date time stamp of when a signor executes an agreement. Not only does not having this create more work for people, but it also creates logistical nightmares because signors the opportunity to forward or backdate these fields (which is what a date picker field is for) but in the case of commencement dates a document recipient shouldn't be able to choose, the date time an agreement is signed should be objective and immutable.

We really need to get this implemented ASAP. It shouldn't be hard to do, and I think it is extremely important to have.

add a time stamp next to the signature instead of having a separate sheet at the end.

This should be in development by now

add dates that are split, like this -- On this ____ of __________________, ______

Add a variable into a field to stamp when the form is signed.

Feedback from our Forums, 'That makes automating an agreement commencement date on date of signing impossible. I cant belive such a core need has been left out.'

A variable such as [Document.Completed], or [Document.Signed] would be helpful to be implemented so that it can be shown within the document, and not just on the signature certificate page.

If anyone from PandaDoc is actually listening, you might want to work on moving the status of this request or provide a response to why you have decided not to implement this feature. It's pretty important to a LOT of folks (over 450 votes). Given it was requested over 2 years ago, you might think it would have moved to "In development" by now.

This could be the reason we switch back to DocuSign. Is it that difficult to get this added?

Unbelievable that this is not a standard feature. Literally the 2nd most important thing after the signature. Signers could choose any date they like... thereby falsifying a 'legal' document. Madness

Please fix. Thank you!

Wow, I am trying all eSigning services and I CAN NOT believe this is not a thing. The top two things you need to build a service like this is 1) signature 2) date signed 3) Full Name. PandaDocs doesn't have 2 of the 3? That can't be right? Please tell me I'm dumb and just don't know where to find it?

Long, complex documents can take a couple of weeks to send. When we send them, we have the document creation date and expiry date on the front cover. So we need it to show the date that it was actually sent to the client.

How is this still not a thing lol

After the signature itself, this is the next most important input for a legal document. We are looking to replace Docusign with Pandadoc, but without this seemingly basic feature, it is difficult to make the change to Pandadoc.

Please add this, increases the level of friction for our clients by two additional steps.

How is this not a thing?

Every other signing platform has this.

PandaDoc needs a new Document.SentDate variable. Use case: We create a document and the "Document.CreatedDate" variables is added in several locations. Other departments then edit the document and approve it days later. Before we send it, we must now manually edit all of the "Document.CreatedDate" variables to todays date. We either need a new variable called "Document.SentDate", or the ability to manually edit a Document.CreatedDate parameter in one location so all of the "Document.CreatedDate" variables update together.
