Record Dictation with Tags

  1. Open NextGen® Mobile.
  2. Open a dictation job.
  3. Select the tag you want to dictate into.
    If the tag does not contain previously recorded audio, the recording begins immediately, and the STOP icon appears. If the tag contains previously recorded audio, the REC  icon appears, and you have to select the tag again to record.
  4. Begin speaking.
    The audio waves track your dictation, and the timer displays the current location of the recording head and the total duration of the recording.

    If recorded audio exists, the new dictation is added to the end of the recording.

  5. To stop or pause the recording in the current tag, select the tag that you are dictating.
    The transcribed text of your dictation appears in the streaming text box.
  6. To resume dictating in the same tag, select the tag, and resume speaking.
    Your new dictation is added to the end of the existing audio recording, and text capture.

    You can also stop recording in the current tag by selecting another tag.
