Both signatures appear on the accepted estimate. ## How do you set up signatures? Each user must first sign their signature in the **Profile** section.

Once an estimate is sent, your customer can digitally sign to accept the project by clicking the **accept** **estimate** button.

Both signatures will be automatically populated, along with the acceptance date at the bottom of the estimate.

## How to force populate the estimator signature If you would like the estimator's signature to be included before sending the estimate, simply click on the estimator's name at the top of the quote and re-select their name from the popup.
