Understanding Your Document Statuses

Every document in your Inkfree dashboard shows a real-time status reflecting exactly where it is.

  • Sent

    Document delivered to the signer's inbox. The signing request has been dispatched and the recipient's email successfully reached.

  • Opened

    The signer has opened and viewed the document at least once. Inkfree logs the exact date, time, and view count.

  • In Progress

    The signer has begun completing fields or placing their signature. Not yet fully executed.

  • Pending

    The document is awaiting action from one or more signers. Not yet opened or acted upon by the next required party in the sequence.

  • Reminder Sent

    An automatic or manually triggered reminder has been dispatched to one or more outstanding signers.

  • Completed

    All required parties have signed. Document fully executed and a Certificate of Completion generated and distributed.

  • Declined

    A signer chose to decline rather than sign. Sender is notified immediately and the document is removed from the active queue.

  • Expired

    The signing window elapsed without all required signatures. The link is no longer active and a resend is required.

  • Voided

    Sender or administrator canceled the document before all signatures were collected. All parties are notified immediately.

  • Rejected

    An internal approver rejected the document and sent it back for revision. The workflow does not advance until the rejection is resolved.

  • Approved

    All required internal approvers have signed off. The document has cleared every review stage and is ready for external signers.
