iManage® is a document and email management application that empowers professionals to manage information more productively, securely, and seamlessly.
iManage offers their customers two clients: a web application and a desktop application also known as Desksite.
The RSign® for iManage® App allows users to create e-signature envelopes in three different ways: starting from RSign, starting from the iManage Web App, and starting from iMange Desktop App. You may click on the links below to jump to each section.

Authorizing RSign® to access iManage® account
Login to your RSign® account, navigate to Settings and open the ‘External Drives’ tab. Open the ‘NetDocuments®’ tab and click on ‘Register’. A pop-up will open.
Select your version of the iManage Platform (iManage Cloud / iManage Work Server 10). If you select iManage Cloud, the Server URL will be automatically filled. Otherwise, enter your Server URL. Finally, enter your iManage credentials and click on Sign In.
Uploading Signed Documents in iManage®
By default, the ‘Upload Signed Document’ configuration will be disabled.
If you wish to enable it, click on ‘Y’. Select whether you want the signed document to be saved in the original file location or in a different folder.
If the ‘Upload Signed Document’ configuration is set to ‘Yes’, the final signed document will be automatically stored in iManage in the folder you have selected.
If the envelope contains multiple documents and the option ‘Separate Multiple Documents after Signing’ is set to ‘Y’, the signed documents will be saved separately. If this option is set to ‘N’, all signed documents will be merged into a single file. For more information on this please see the following knowledge base article Separate Multiple Documents after Signing with RSign.
When the ‘Different Folder Location’ option is selected, the document location can be specified using the folder browse option.
Click on the magnifying glass icon, select the folder where you wish to upload signed documents and click on the ‘Save’ button.
Enabling iManage® as a storage drive in RSign®
By default, iManage® is disabled in the ‘Drives’ pop-up on the ‘Send’ tab.
To enable it, navigate to Settings and open the System tab. Under Available Storage Settings, select ‘iManage’ and save.
You will now be able to access documents from NetDocuments® while composing envelopes.
Processing iManage® documents in RSign®
In your RSign® application, open the ‘Send’ tab. Click on ‘+ Documents’ and select ‘iManage’ from the list of available drives.
A popup will open. Find your document using the search bar or the navigation menu. Press and hold ‘Ctrl’ or ‘Shift’ keys to select multiple documents. When you are done, click ‘Select’ to import your documents.
Continue the envelope creation process as usual.
