Schedule an Envelope to Send in the Future

WESIGNDOC gives you the flexibility to prepare documents in advance and have them delivered automatically at the perfect time. With the Scheduled Send feature, you can set an envelope to be sent on a specific future date and time—ensuring your documents reach recipients exactly when needed, without requiring you to log in again or manually press send.

This feature is ideal for businesses that rely on timely communication, follow-up accuracy, and consistent workflow planning.

Why Use Scheduled Sending?

Scheduled sending is helpful in many situations where timing matters. Here are five short, unique examples:

• Sending onboarding documents first thing the next morning after preparing them late at night.

• Delivering renewal reminders on a future scheduled date.

• Sending event materials precisely when registration begins.

• Delivering policy updates at the start of the business day.

• Sending appointment-related documents a few hours prior to a client’s visit.

These use cases help you stay organized and ensure your documents reach recipients at the right moment.

Where to Find Scheduled Envelopes

Any envelope you schedule will appear in your Scheduled folder, where its status will show as Scheduled, confirming it’s set for future delivery.

How Far in Advance Can You Schedule?

WESIGNDOC allows you to schedule envelopes up to 30 days in advance, helping you automate reminders, follow-ups, and future tasks effortlessly.
