Resolution Form
Use a Resolution Form template to make your document workflow more streamlined.
What is Resolution Form?
Resolution Form is a business document used to record a stated resolution, decision, or approval and obtain the required signatures. Its exact legal effect depends on the transaction, wording, signer authority, and applicable law. With signNow, a sender uploads the form, reviews or adds fillable fields, assigns signers, and sends it for completion. Signers review the displayed record, provide required information, and sign electronically. signNow then preserves the completed document with an audit trail showing relevant signing activity for later review.
Who benefits most from Resolution Form
Resolution Form serves individuals and organizations that need a traceable way to complete, approve, and store signed business records.
A solo consultant can use Resolution Form to document client decisions, capture approval signatures, and retain a complete signed record without coordinating paper exchanges. A healthcare practice can route Resolution Form documents for patient or administrative approvals while applying signNow controls appropriate for workflows involving protected health information. An enterprise legal or operations team can standardize Resolution Form handling with shared templates, delegated sending, audit trails, and role-based access across departments.
These tasks are executed by both individual contributors and centralized administrators depending on organizational policy and required controls.

Key Resolution Form capabilities

Field preparation
Upload Resolution Form once, then review automatically detected fields and add signature, date, text, or checkbox fields where the document requires them.
Signer assignment
Assign every required field to a named signer so each person sees the information and signature actions relevant to their role in Resolution Form.
Flexible delivery
Send Resolution Form by email or a shareable signing link, giving recipients a direct path to the specific document awaiting completion.
Audit evidence
Capture signer actions, timestamps, and document history in an audit trail that can accompany the completed Resolution Form during internal review.
Reusable templates

Browsers Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge Desktop systems Windows and macOS desktop access Mobile systems iOS and Android mobile access
Organizations should manage access through approved devices and user policies. Enterprise deployments may also require API access, SSO provisioning, and configuration for audit, certificate, or long-term validation requirements. Confirm browser, mobile, identity, and retention controls against the organization’s internal security policy before distributing Resolution Form.
Legal standing of Resolution Form
For U.S. business transactions, an electronically signed Resolution Form may be admissible when the signer intends to sign, consents to electronic records, can be identified, and the record remains reproducible. ESIGN, 15 U.S.C. chapter 96, and UETA support electronic records, but exclusions include wills, certain court orders, and family-law decrees.
Avoidable Resolution Form problems
Uploading an outdated Resolution Form can leave signers working from superseded terms or incomplete fields. Assigning a signature field to the wrong person can weaken attribution and delay completion of Resolution Form. Sending Resolution Form without confirming signer order may produce approvals in the wrong sequence. Saving only the signed PDF without its audit trail can reduce evidence about identity, timing, and document activity.

Resolution Form troubleshooting and questions
These answers address field setup, signer routing, legal consent, plan selection, and document exclusions for Resolution Form workflows.
Upload the intended Resolution Form version and check each automatically detected field before sending. On the Business plan, signNow provides templates, legally binding eSignatures, and audit trails; add missing fields manually when detection does not capture the form structure.
Verify the recipient email, signer assignment, and signing order before resending. signNow supports email delivery and signing links; correcting the assigned role prevents a recipient from opening fields intended for another Resolution Form signer.
For consumer-facing Resolution Form transactions, provide the required electronic-record disclosure and show that the signer can access the record. ESIGN, 15 U.S.C. §7001(c), also requires a process for withdrawing consent to electronic records.
A signNow audit trail helps document intent, attribution, timestamps, and activity, but it does not decide whether the underlying Resolution Form is legally sufficient. Review transaction-specific requirements under ESIGN, UETA, and applicable state law.
The Business plan is listed at $8/user/month with annual billing and includes audit trails and templates. Business Premium is $15/user/month annually and adds bulk send; Enterprise is $30/user/month annually and adds advanced signer authentication.
Do not use electronic signing for Resolution Form content that is actually a will, codicil, testamentary trust, certain court filing, or family-law decree. ESIGN’s exclusions apply, and the governing authority may require another execution process.
