In Weplanify, an employee without an account cannot sign online. The panel of their evaluation says so as soon as it is to sign, and offers to go through paper.

## Steps

1. In the campaign's **Follow-up**, filter on **To sign** and open the evaluation.
2. Click **Print for signature**: the PDF of the evaluation downloads, with an **Acknowledgement** page for the employee's comment and signature.
3. Print it, have the employee read and sign it.
4. Click **Attach the signed copy** and choose the scan or the photo (PDF, JPG or PNG, 15 MB at most).
5. The copy joins the employee's documents and the evaluation becomes **Signed**.

## Good to know

- Both buttons also work for an employee who has an account, when the evaluation is to sign or not signed ([declined signature](https://weplanify.io/docs/employes.evaluations.signature-refusee?lang=en)).
- When filling in the evaluation, the manager is told that HR will print it.
- In the employee's documents, the copy is marked "signed on paper". **See the signed copy**, in the panel, opens it.
- For the employee to sign online, invite them to Weplanify from their record ([the employee record](https://weplanify.io/docs/employes.fiche?lang=en)).
