Update candidate CRM record and store signed PDF

Automatically capture submitted onboarding fields and the signed PDF from PandaDoc across Salesforce and Microsoft SharePoint. Create and update candidate records when documents complete or submissions match or signatures arriveβ€”so you can update candidate fields, store signed PDFs, and alert the onboarding team without manual data entry.

How this automation updates your candidate records

When a document is completed, signed forms can get stuck in inboxes and cause mismatched CRM data. This automation finds and updates candidate records and uploads signed PDFs and notifies onboardingβ€”so your team can act on submissions faster.
