LinkToFill: Host Fillable Forms
Turn your documents into fillable forms without leaving Salesforce. Use LinkToFill to make your forms accessible to anyone with an embeddable HTML code, a direct link or QR code. Anyone with the link can fill out a form and submit it to you. A Salesforce account is not required to fill and submit a form. Create a direct link to the fillable form and publish it on your website as a button or an HTML link.
To start using LinkToFill in the DaDaDocs Documents tab, choose a document from the list and click LinkToFill.

In the LinkToFill options window, copy the link to your document by clicking Copy Link. The link will be automatically copied to your clipboard so you can share it directly with your recipients.

Recipients will receive their own copy of the selected document. The original document will remain unaltered.
Note. To enable a timestamp for signature fields, go to App Launcher and select DaDaDocs Settings.

Proceed to the Admin Tools tab.
Switch to Settings and in the Feature-specific settings section, check the Enable E-signature Timestamps box.
When finished, click Save.

Once a document has been signed, the signature will be verified with a PDFfiller stamp that shows the date of signing next to each signature field.

To adjust additional settings, select Settings at the bottom.
Customize Tab

Click Add Fields to add fillable fields such as text, checkboxes, signature, dropdown, and date fields to your document. For more information, please refer to the Fillable Fields section of this guide.
