When you need to collect some extra information from the signers, you can use the next DocuSign tags.
Note
In the next table, the first number means the number of the recipient and n means the number of the element inside one document (from 1 to 10). For example, for tag txb1_3: 1 means the number of the recipient and 3 means the number of the element inside one document.

Let’s review some cases with the grouped tags.
You can add one or more textbox fields to your document.
For example:
To make the textbox fields required use the texbox tags with _req
element:
DocuSign will place textbox fields on the tags and to avoid an incorrect view I use white font for the tags.
This is how it looks in DocuSign:
If you want to use the textbox tag for multiple signers change the first number in the tag:
\tbx1_1\ - textbox for the first signer;
\tbx2_1\ - textbox for the second signer;
etc.
You can add an empty checkbox or activated to a document. For example:
Use _yes
to place an activated checkbox.
In this example I also used white font for the tags.
The result in DocuSign:
If you want to use the checkbox tag for multiple signers change the first number in the tag:
\cb1_1\ - checkbox for the first signer;
\cb2_1\ - checkbox for the second signer;
etc.
You can group radio buttons using _a
, _b
and _c
options of the tag.
For example:
There are three groups of radio buttons for one signer.
\rb1_1_a\ and \rb1_2_a\ - first group of the radio buttons;
\rb1_3_b\ and \rb1_4_b\ - second group of the radio buttons;
\rb1_5_c\ and \rb1_6_c\ - third group of the radio buttons;
As before, I used white font for the tags.
The result in DocuSign:
If you want to use the checkbox tag for multiple signers change the first number in the tag:
\rb1_1_a\ and \rb1_2_a\ - checkboxes for the first signer;
\cb2_1_a\ and \cb2_2_a\ - checkboxes for the second signer;
etc.
You can add a required or non-required number field to a document. For example:
Use _req
to place a required number field.
The result in DocuSign:
If you want to use the number tag for multiple signers change the first number in the tag:
\number1_1\ - number field for the first signer;
\number2_1\ - number field for the second signer;
etc.
