Automated reminders for pending signatures

Purpose

 1.1. Automate sending reminders to customers for pending electronic signatures on rental agreements, contracts, and onboarding documents.
 1.2. Automating the notification process reduces manual follow-up, increases document completion rates, and legally secures business transactions in the instrument rental service.
 1.3. An automated reminder system integrates with e-signature and CRM tools to detect outstanding signatures and initiate timely multi-channel alerts.
 1.4. Ensures compliance by automatically escalating overdue signatures to management and maintaining audit trails.

Trigger Conditions

 2.1. Automated scan for pending signatures based on document status from digital signature platforms.
 2.2. Automates scheduling of reminders at set intervals after initial document send (e.g., 24, 48, 72 hours).
 2.3. Automator triggers initiated by CRM status changes, workflow actions, or absence of recipient activity on instrument rental contracts.
 2.4. Automation kicks in for onboarding pause or when customer’s status is “pending signature.”
