How to assign dictations to a team/typist
[Note]Note

Authors can only change the assignment of a dictation when a workflow relationship was set up before. Fore more information see Create/edit teams as well as Assign teams or typists to an author.

All dictations are initially assigned to the Default Team of the author. However, the author can manually change the assignment of dictations:

  1. Select a dictation in the dictation list.

  2. Choose Reassignreassign_icon.png in the toolbar.

    X Select the team or typist you want the dictation assigned to.

What is the Default team?
  • As soon as an author is created, a Default team is assigned to the author.

  • You can’t delete the Default team, however it is possible to add typists to the default team.

  • All existing author to typist relations created before the introduction of the flexible assignment feature will be contained in the Default team.

  • Typists that want to manually upload dictations to SpeechLive need to be part of the Default team of an author, otherwise the upload is not possible.

To add a typist to the default team:
