        1. Ensure that the ‘Assigned to’ drop-down on the right side of the screen contains the buyer’s name.

      When you click send, the contract will be sent to the eSign section of the grower’s customer portal (available on mobile, tablet, and desktop).  If the grower has notifications enabled, they will receive a notification that they have a contract to be signed.  After three days have gone by and they haven’t signed and submitted the contract, when they open the customer portal on their mobile device, they will see a pop-up message that they have a contract to sign. This reminder pop-up window will appear two more times, each occurring three days after the previous reminder.
