# Delegate Signing Preparation

When preparing a signature, Aerofiler offers the option to delegate signing preparation to another person. You would use this option when Aerofiler has sent you a workflow for signature preparation, but the signatures should be prepared by another person. Example scenarios include:

* Wet signature is required, but another person in the organisation is holding the signed document
* Electronic signature is required, but you do not have access to an electronic signing account

To begin, click Actions -> Delegate Signing Preparation

A pop up will appear. In the dropdown, select the person who should prepare the contract for signing. Optionally leave a note explaining the reason for the delegation:

The delegation will be noted in the log:

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://userguidesgitbook.aerofiler.com.au/workflows/signature/delegate-signing-preparation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
