Any other Escription/EditScript Users Notice This??? - smeeps


Posted: Mar 17, 2014

Most of you know who I work for (Acusis).  I've never really paid much attention to lines on my timesheet cause I had always reached my daily goal in ES.  I do work 10 pm to 2 am so I realize my count may overlap into the next day.  However, I 'really' noticed for this past pay period, that the timesheet counts(which are uploaded by my supervisor which she gets from the client) were off from what ES had(I logged in and checked each day for the past pay period) to the tune of 300 lines.  Not much, I know, but we all know every little bit counts.  Tha being said, I'm going to be paying very close attention to my lines counts anymore....

It's probably not their fault and here's why.... - InTheKnow

One of the biggest complaints that has been brought to eScritpion's attention many times over the years by clients (in addition to MTSOs) is that if a report is deleted from their system the line count goes bye-bye with it too. It drives us all nuts. Clients are stuck because if the dictator insists they made gross errors and it has to come off the system they have to delete it. What you need to do is this. Every day at the end of your shift print the line count total so you have documentation of the reports/lines you did. Go back a day or 2 later to see if any changes are there. If there are any changes when you run the new line count report go and look to see what's missing and make sure your manager knows this. Most companies/hospitals will pay you if you can document that job # and lines that were deleted. You'd think eScription would fix their system to where you can delete a report without it taking the line count with it but they don't ever seem interested in fixing this problem that messes a lot of us up.

Thanks for your reply, I appreciate it. - smeeps

What are your average lines per hour for editing?  Acute care.  We are transitioning over and most dictations have not gone into editing yet. We are curious as to what your productivity is.   So far the drafts are amazingly good.  This is all new to us.  I have read through the archives but they are not very recent.  Thank you to anyone who answers. ...

Question For EditScript Users
Sep 29, 2010

Does anyone know a way to get around the lock on copying or printing documents transcribed in EditScript? I do the copying process as a means of building up Dragon document analysis (once it's done the document is destroyed). Doing this would have a huge impact on my production (double or triple it), so I think you can see why I'm hoping this can be done. ...

New To VR/EditScript/Escription
Oct 25, 2009

After 40 years on the job and getting tired of typing, when out of a job this last time (there have been so many times of late because of ...well most of you already know how goes it with our profession), I decided to just go for what seems to be taking over transcription anyway.  Thanks to this board and all the talk about the different platforms, I took a job with a company that uses EditScript, and I am thrilled.  In those 40 years, I have had to do a lot of proofreading as a super ...

Escription 9.80 - Anyone Else Notice That It's Worse
May 08, 2013

I'm doing multiple edits on almost every line since we switched to 9.80 - and the mistakes it's making I've never seen before.  I mean, it was never great but now its really lousy.  It's like it forgot whatever little that it ever "knew" - and now I get really dumb errors, lots of words clearly spoken that are omitted, formatting errors - and the punctuation is a nightmare. It's really cut my production significantly. What say you? ...

EScription EditScript 9 Alt L Function

I must hit alt L 20 times a day instead of  alt K.  Seems like I do it when I'm in front of a word like "in" or "the" - you know, something that is in a document 1000 times....  I usually do alt z to undo it, but once that is done, the red box no longer works until it gets to the last occurrence of the word alt z corrected.  How do I disable the alt L function?  Is there a line to remove from a macro? ...

I just started an account using EditScript today and I can't seem to get my Sylvan ShortCut program to work with it.  It works sometimes and not others and very slowly, showing one letter at a time.  I already tried excluding it from my Avast antivirus (I think I did it right) and it seemed better for a minute and then right back to the same thing.  I ended up closing it and working without it, but I can't do that all the time or my production will suck.  Has anyone ...

Any Difference In EditScript MT 9 And EditScript MT 9.12?
Dec 29, 2011

Does anyone know if there is any difference in EditScript MT 9 and EditScript MT 9.12?  If there is, how can we update this? It seems that my new place of employments line counting is not the same as my old place of employment.  New employer has EditScript 9, while my old work had EditScript 9.12, and my line count was much more at my previous employer.  Now it seems I can put out tons of work and see not much for lines...  Very frustrating.

Condolences To XP Users

I just have to send out some Monday wishes for all those with XP who woke up to a nice e-mail that they would have to acquire a new computer.  Considering it is barely after Christmas, and it just is one thing followed by another, I'm not sure how they expect you to do this on less pay, and I'm sure this created stress for a lot of people. And I just thought some warm wishes and prayers in your direction were warranted this morning.   :(   ...
