Resolution

Regarding the inquiry about reverting from DocuSign to SAP Digital Signature for I-9 processing in SAP SuccessFactors Onboarding 2.0 (ONB 2.0), the transition involves shifting the I-9 compliance flow from an external, email-based third-party solution to an in-app experience.
- Key implications include changes in user experience, configuration adjustments, and document management.


- Implementation steps:


1. Navigate to Onboarding General Settings in the Admin Center.
2. Update the selection from DocuSign (Remote Signature) to SAP Signature (SAP e-Signature) under e-Signature Settings.
3. Enable SAP eSignature in the Platform Feature Settings.
4. Configure the Process Variant Manager to include the document signature step.


- Considerations:


- Ensure completion of any I-9 forms currently in progress with DocuSign before switching to avoid confusion or data loss.
- Activate SAP email templates for document signatures to replace DocuSign alerts.
- Remote workforce may require portal access to complete the signature process, which could be less convenient than DocuSign's email-based approach.
