An email will be generated providing the submitter with a link to a PDF of the DocuSign form and a second one notifying the custodian of the request.  The custodian will need to review and sign the document.  If the submitter and the custodian are the same, the custodian will need to sign in the role of the submitter and the role of the custodian.  

Overall Process: 

Inventory Control reviews the Docusign Inventory Addition form and supporting documentation.  At the time Inventory Control assigns the tags in Docusign, an RT ticket is created and an email is sent the custodian indicating the tags are ready.  The email will give the custodian a date and time to pick up the sensitive inventory tags.  The custodian will sign the Docusign Inventory addition form when they pick up the property tags and when they tag the equipment.  The custodian will continue to receive emails from Docusign until they sign that the equipment has been tagged.  Now the process is completed.
