How do I make sure each signer gets a unique document when I use Send in Bulk?

First, create your main document. This is your 'parent template'. Use the 'Send in Bulk' feature. Acrobat will automatically make a separate 'child agreement' for each signer. Each child agreement has its own audit trail. This means you can track each signer's document separately.

How can I add many recipients quickly when using the Send in Bulk feature?

You can add recipients manually, one by one, if you have a small list. For many recipients, use a CSV file. This file lets you upload a list of names and emails. With a CSV, you can also set roles, how signers prove their identity, and default values for fields for each person automatically.

Every time we bulk-send disclosures, Compliance marks the job down for lack of delivery proof or wrong attachments. Diagnose where our process—template control, recipient lists, or method of sending—fails, and recommend one change (tool or checklist) that guarantees correct attachments and auditable delivery with minimal extra effort from tellers.

How to do it

the tool · the steps · what to avoid

1
Log in to your Adobe Acrobat Sign enterprise account.
2
Navigate to the E-Sign section and select the option for bulk sending agreements.
3
Upload the mandatory document (such as a policy or disclosure) that requires employee acknowledgment.
4
Enter an agreement name and customize the message that will be sent to all recipients.
5
Add recipients by uploading a CSV file or manually entering employee names and email addresses.
6
Review the agreement settings to ensure compliance requirements are met (such as authentication or deadlines).
7
Initiate the bulk send to distribute individual agreements to each recipient for signature.
8
Monitor agreement status and download reports to track which employees have signed and which are outstanding.
Best practiceTo avoid email deliverability issues and domain blacklisting, consider sending in smaller batches (e.g., 10 emails per hour) if your organization has not previously bulk-sent from this domain.

In the appWith the API

You can track the signing status of each recipient in real time from the Manage dashboard after sending.

about this task

First, create your main document. This is your 'parent template'.
Use the 'Send in Bulk' feature. Acrobat will automatically make a separate 'child agreement' for each signer.
Each child agreement has its own audit trail. This means you can track each signer's document separately.

The 'parent template' is the original document you prepare and set up for bulk sending. It acts as the master copy. A 'child agreement' is an individual copy generated from that parent template, sent to one specific signer. Each child agreement is independent, meaning signers do not see each other's documents, and each has its own audit trail for tracking.

No, when you use 'Send in Bulk', each recipient gets their own independent 'child agreement'. Signers do not see who else received the document. This keeps each signing process private and separate.

Send in Bulk is a powerful feature designed for sending many documents at once, which is often needed by businesses or professional users. It requires Acrobat Pro or Pro for teams because these versions offer advanced features and higher transaction limits suitable for such large-scale operations, ensuring compliance and robust tracking for each agreement.
