# Setting Signing Order

To learn more about available signing order names and roles, use this article [HERE](https://help.gosolo.io/signing-order-names-and-roles?hsLang=en).

1. Open the edit page for the new or existing template for which you would like to set the signing order.
2. Scroll down to the “Add Recipients” section.![Screenshot 2025-02-06 at 1-10-19 PM-png](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-10-19%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=670&height=389&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-10-19%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)
3. Using the “Add Recipients” button, set up the three standard recipients with the following roles. These must be spelled exactly like below: 
     1. Sales Rep
     2. Homeowner
     3. Cosigner ![Screenshot 2025-02-06 at 1-11-17 PM-png](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-11-17%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=670&height=610&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-11-17%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)Note: **Do not** add names or emails for these recipients, that information will autofill for each customer when documents are requested from Solo.
4. Check the “Set Signing Order” checkbox at the top.![](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-17-47%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=670&height=324&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-17-47%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)
5. For each recipient, add the signing order value. **Each recipient has a number that must be set exactly as below to follow the correct signing order.** The name and number must match exactly: 
     1. **Sales Rep** with the order of **5**
     2. **Homeowner** with the order of **10**
     3. **Cosigner** with the order of **10 ![](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-15-09%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=297&height=452&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-15-09%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)**If needed, there are some additional, optional signers that you can add.
6. To add a signer for when the utility account holder is not the homeowner or the co-applicant, add a **Utility Account Holder** with a signing order of **11**. 
     1. Do NOT add an email or name to this signing order, as they will be automatically filled when documents are requested. ![](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-19-22%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=670&height=214&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-19-22%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)
7. To add a user who will need to sign off on all document requests, add a **Counter Signer** with a signing order of **15**. 
     1. Because this will be the same user every time, make sure to fill in the name and email: ![Screenshot 2025-02-06 at 1-19-33 PM-png](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-19-33%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=670&height=200&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-19-33%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)
8. To add a user who should receive a copy but does not need to sign, add an **Admin** with a signing order of **20**. 
     1. Change the recipient setting from “Needs to Sign” to "**Receives a Copy**”
     2. Because this will be the same user every time, make sure to fill in the name and email:![](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-20-18%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=670&height=206&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-20-18%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)
9. Once your desired signing order is configured, either click “Save and Close” to complete the template, or “Next” to continue editing the rest of the template. ![](https://help.gosolo.io/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-20-57%E2%80%AFPM-png.png?width=670&height=397&name=Screenshot%202025-02-06%20at%201-20-57%E2%80%AFPM-png.png)
