Create Custom Form Fields to Speed Up Document Building with BoldSign

In this blog, we are going to see how to speed up the process of building a contract by using custom form fields. Custom form fields are preconfigured fields where values and formatting are already applied. This means that commonly used fields can be saved with specific settings, eliminating the need to repeatedly configure them from scratch.

Let’s assume your document has fields like “Company Name,” “Countries,” “Business Type,” “Payment Type,” and “Company Website”. These fields can be easily set as prefilled form fields since they won’t change from document to document. So, having these fields as custom fields can improve your team’s productivity by not repeating the fields in each document. The user can just drag and drop them into the documents.

Also, admin users can enable or disable the following options for other team members to enforce a concrete workflow.

  1. View Standard Form Fields.

  2. View Shared Form Fields.

  3. Create Custom Form Fields.

After creating a brand in BoldSign, administrators can create custom fields by following these steps:
