Signing with DocuSign

Every screen of DocuSign, step by step: your funding agreement, the LETPA certification, and what your sheriff sees in DocuSign's email.

7 of 27 steps on your routeYour route: Our LETPA certification

DocuSign is the online way to sign your funding agreement and, for SHSP and UASI, your LETPA certification. You don't need a DocuSign account and there's nothing to install: it works in an up-to-date browser on a computer, tablet or phone.

Signers with a GMPro login start from GMPro's signing page. Anyone without one, such as your sheriff on the LETPA certification, signs from DocuSign's email. Either way, GMPro files the signed copy and DocuSign's completion certificate for you.

Who signs where

SignerStarts fromNeeds a GMPro login
Your Authorized Representative (agreement and LETPA)GMPro's signing page, or DocuSign's email
Your Point of Contact (LETPA, when they're the one chosen)GMPro's signing page, or DocuSign's email
Your sheriff (LETPA only)DocuSign's email

Only your Authorized Representative signs your funding agreement; your LETPA certification may be signed by your Authorized Representative or a Point of Contact. If that person has changed, an owner updates it before you send anything for signature.

Words you'll see

Signing page
GMPro's page for one signing: who signs, in what order, where it stands, and the documents being signed. It updates on its own as people sign.
Envelope
DocuSign's word for a package being signed. Your funding agreement is one envelope; your LETPA certification is another.
Adopt a signature
The first time you sign, DocuSign asks how your signature should look. Check your name and initials and pick a style, or draw or upload your own.

Part 2

The LETPA certification (SHSP and UASI)

  1. 1

    Send it with your sheriff's details

    On your grant's Documents page, the LETPA card's “Choose how to sign” asks for your sheriff's name, title, agency and email. Choose “Sign online with DocuSign” and click “Send for signatures”. Signing the LETPA certification explains when it's asked for.

  2. 2

    Your organization's signer signs first

    The signing page shows the turn of the person chosen to sign for your organization (your Authorized Representative or a Point of Contact), then the sheriff's. If it's you, click “Sign with DocuSign”.

  3. 3

    Read the certification

    DocuSign shows both pages: your law-enforcement budget summary, then the certification. Check the amounts and projects, then use “Start” to go to your line.

  4. 4

    Sign and finish

    Sign the “Sub-recipient Certification” line the same way as the agreement. There are no boxes to tick on this one. Click “Finish”.

    First time in DocuSign? It asks you to agree to sign electronically and to adopt a signature before you sign.

  5. 5

    Now it's your sheriff's turn

    Back in GMPro, the signing page says it's waiting for your sheriff and that DocuSign emailed them a link. You're done; the page updates when the sheriff signs.

Part 4

After everyone signs

  1. 6

    Your team is told

    GMPro emails your grant team that the certification is signed and GOHSEP is reviewing it. It names the GOHSEP grant specialists who can review it.

  2. 7

    GOHSEP reviews the certification

    On Documents, the LETPA card reads “Signed · GOHSEP reviewing” and shows both signatures. When GOHSEP approves it, the hold on your award lifts on its own.
