# \[General Member] E-Signature

### Checking Contracts Eligible for E-Signature

There are two cases in which a contract is ready for e-signature.

{% @arcade/embed flowId="AX6Y5mUaEANPNwb8xkPG" url="<https://app.arcade.software/share/AX6Y5mUaEANPNwb8xkPG>" %}

1. After Approval is Completed

* Once electronic approval is completed, an email notification will be sent.
* Click \[View Approval] in the email to proceed with electronic signing.
* It's also possible to check contracts with an Approved status in Contract List > Approval tab.

2. When approval is skipped

* If electronic approval is omitted, the contract is labeled as ‘Skipeed’ and can still proceed to e-signature.

### Requesting an E-Signature

Electronic signatures are requested in five steps.

#### 1. Start Electronic Signature

* Click \[Next] to proceed to the Counterparty and Deadline Settings.

#### 2. Register Signers and the Duration

{% @arcade/embed flowId="pXayTivjiTNJ7m19aDMU" url="<https://app.arcade.software/share/pXayTivjiTNJ7m19aDMU>" %}

* If the contract does not require a signature, or a physical stamp is preferred, this step can be skipped.
* To use a physical stamp, download and print the contract, apply the stamp, and re-upload the signed document as a PDF.\
  Completed contracts can be uploaded as PDFs and linked.\ <mark style="background-color:blue;">Learn more about Upload Executed Contract (체결본 등록 연결)</mark>
