Hi,

To add multiple digital signatures, we need to  create the signatures first.

Then please refer to the following steps:

  • Click the File tab.
  • Click Info.
  • Under Permissions, click Protect Document, Protect Workbook or Protect Presentation.
  • Click Add a Digital Signature.
  • Read the Word, Excel, or PowerPoint message, and then click OK.
  • In the Sign dialog box, in the Purpose for signing this document box, type the purpose.
  • Click Sign.

 Check the following MS link for additional information.

Hi,

The instruction above will allow for one user to sign the document - once the next user signs the signature will be rendered invalid and disappear from the signatures tab. Is there a way to obtain multiple signatures on the same Excel 2010 document without invalidating earlier signatures?

Yes, I've been looking for how to do this too and the marked answer will not allow you to obtain multiple signatures on the same Excel 2010 document.

Multiple signatures are possible. This works in word so I'm guessing it will work in Excel as well. Once the first person signs, on the lower left you will see Page: 1 of 1 | Words: 100 | and the red digital signature icon. Click the icon and a signatures box will open on the right.

There will be a requested signatures section which contains the names of those individuals who still need to sign the document. The person clicks their name and signs the document. No need to save the document its done automatically. The next person will do the same thing and no need to save after they do and so on.

No signatures are invalid as others sign.
