# Document assignment

v4 allows you to assign specific primary documents to each invitee. This guide explains selective document assignment.

## What is document assignment?

Document assignment lets you control which documents each invitee receives from your document pack. Instead of sending all documents to everyone, you selectively assign specific primary documents to each invitee.

**How it works:**
- You create a document pack with multiple primary documents
- You add invitees
- For each invitee, you choose which primary documents they should receive and in what order
- Each invitee previews and signs/reviews only their assigned documents

**Example:**
A loan document pack contains Loan Agreement and Property Documents. You assign both documents to the Borrower, but only the Loan Agreement to the Guarantor. The Guarantor never sees the Property Documents.

> **Info — Key point**
>
> You assign **primary documents**, not sub-documents. All sub-documents within a primary document go together.

## How to assign documents

When configuring invitees in the Invite step:

1. Click **Assign Documents** on the invitee card
2. Select which primary documents this invitee should receive
3. Each invitee must be assigned at least one primary document

## Assignment example

    Pack[Document Pack] --> D1[Loan Agreement]
    Pack --> D2[Property Documents]

    D1 --> B[Borrower
Signs both]
    D2 --> B

    D1 --> G[Guarantor
Signs 1]

    D2 --> O[Bank Officer
Reviews 1]

    style D1 fill:#fff4e6
    style D2 fill:#fff4e6
    style B fill:#d4edda
    style G fill:#d4edda
    style O fill:#d4edda
```

**What each person sees:**
- Borrower: "You have 2 documents to sign"
- Guarantor: "You have 1 document to sign"
- Bank officer: "You have 1 document to review"

## What invitees see

Invitees see only their assigned documents in the signing interface and notifications. They don't see other documents in the pack.
