Enhancements
Document Template Name Now Displayed on Template Match
When a document uploaded to the Proof for Business portal matches a template, the matched template name is now displayed alongside the number of tags applied. Previously, only "Template match found" and the tag count were shown. This update simplifies template maintenance for users.
Applies to draft and future transactions.
Required Explanation When Terminating a Meeting for Fraud
Notaries are now required to provide an explanation when terminating a meeting due to fraud concerns. This will help Proof better support notaries in the moment and enable more effective follow-up after terminations.
Applies to future transactions only.

Audit Trails Overview
Proof generates two audit trails for every completed transaction: a transaction-level audit trail providing a high-level summary of key signing events (such as signer details, ID verification, and seal application) reflecting only the most recent transaction, and a more detailed, tamper-sealed document-level audit trail embedded within the document itself that records all actions on the document and is viewable in Adobe Acrobat, with both accessible to anyone who has access to the document.
