     3. Submit
     4. Click on **Assign** to assign the documents to the employee
     5. Select the Employee
     6. Submit  
            1. **Employee Instruction:** 
                     1. Employee will log into Symply
                     2. On the Dashboard it will say **"You have been assigned a document"**
                     3. View the document
                     4. Select Attachments and upload required documentation

                     6. Employee will enter full name and click Save

     1. Click on completed task
     2. It will say "Marked as Read" in green on top

 

 

 

1. 1. 1. This is optional, and so the employee is still able to sign the document successfully, even if they don't upload any attachment.

 

 

 

The document settings options include:

- Employee can upload additional document: This means the assigned employee may upload a document as an attachment after signing.
- Require employee to upload additional document: This means the assigned employee must upload a document as an attachment after signing.

The Admin can view all attached documents for each assignee in the "Assign" screen.
