Anyone care to share their "likes" about - DQS 7 - Just Sayin

Posted: Jul 30, 2012

Because I'm failing to see it's superiority over DQS 6. None of the features seem to work right on it, and even the ASR, although still a wreck, was better in DQS 6. For example, DQS 7 ASR puts in headings every time it hears the word plan or medication, etc. It also fails to put any commas in when there is a sentence listing something.

Just thought it would be helpful if somebody shared something they liked about DQS 7 that DQS 6 didn't have. Maybe I'm missing something that I could be using.

Thanks for sharing!

like the CP on the screen - North MT

I like the ability of having the CP right on the screen although I really wish they would put the pertinent stuff right on top to save scrolling, but also the ability to unpin or whatever they call it when you don't need it and have a big typing screen.

Supposedly there is an update coming soon that is supposed to fix a lot of the issues you mentioned plus a few more we guinea pigs of DQS7 found. The update was supposed to be June, then they pushed it back and still have not heard. They are supposed to fix the capitalization function and the search function for sure.

There are other good things too like being able to see the dictator of the upcoming job and being able to change your font and size of type. DQS7 was having a glitch awhile back and we were switching back and forth between 6 and 7 and I would have rather stayed on 7. It gets easier the more you do it. I just started using my Ctrl-E function and making expansions for all the things that ASR decided was the cool thing to do and am just trying to roll with the new program.

I just started and I am freaking out - oh help me

I am just staring at the screen, lost, have no clue what to touch! HELP!!!

Me too,,nothing like getting the program as your signing on - how do I autocap

[ In Reply To ..]
At the beginning of a sentence and I darn sure hope we are getting paid at a training rate...this rots...

I heard others did get paid training, but my CCM seems to - have overlooked that for us

[ In Reply To ..]
Some even got straight typing for awhile to raise their pay!!! How lovely, hey?

No autocap until update - North MT

[ In Reply To ..]
Sorry, I know it bites. We guinea pigs complained forever about it and were told to wait for the update. Still waiting. Just make sure you hit the space bar after the word at the beginning of the sentence and it will cap it.

BTW we got paid an extra cpl for a week as training pay. Some teams got 4 weeks, others 2. Totally depends on your CCM. Our reports were typing for a few days until the system "learned" them and now we are back to all ASR. It will get easier the more reports you do. Hang in there.

Not capping when I hit space bar - is there a button to push??

[ In Reply To ..]
Other then this problem, I really see no difference...

me either... my pinky dont work for capping anymore! - waaaaaahhhhhhh

[ In Reply To ..]
Its gonna be a long day.

To autocap, see msg - Fossil

[ In Reply To ..]
When on text screen, go to tools, options, click on autocorrect, and make sure box is checked which says Autocapitalize.

Does not work under headings or in a list - North MT

[ In Reply To ..]
You still have to manually capitalize or hit the space bar after the word. They do not have fixed yet, nor 2 capital letters in the beginning of a word, changing THe to The. Supposed to be coming in updates....

Thank you fossil you rule !!!!! - nm

Can someone tell me what font they use - and..

[ In Reply To ..]
how can I make the white screen a light gray color like the QA box? This white is burning out my retinas!!!

Of course, I love to change it depending on my mood and how tired I am. Not sure about the white screen to gray, but maybe someone knows.

Does anyone know why it drops down a line mid way through - a line?

[ In Reply To ..]
I will be typing along and it
just drops off
like this
and then it goes back to regular lines and keeps right on going, and then it just suddenly
drops off
again.

I ithink it could depend on the font size...sm - there ya go

[ In Reply To ..]
I noticed when I use a larger font size like 45 that will happen. Just to test it out, I used the delete key to delete any spaces there might be and when that did not work I realized it must be the font size that is making it look like it goes to the next line but it really isn't. If you watch, it will do that when you have a longer word in the sentence as compared to the other shorter words. Also I have not heard any complaints back from anyone so figured this must be the reason. Remember, they don't see the big font size on the client's end. Hope this helps!

yes, thank you... - in the dark

[ In Reply To ..]
It would be nice if we had a trainer that explained some of this junk, not juse throw us to the wolves!

I changed my font size and it is still doing it - i give up they get what they get

[ In Reply To ..]
no real training..As an old boss used to say garbage in garbage out

dropped lines... - mouse

[ In Reply To ..]
mine did the same, but it was because of expansion settings. I called tech about it and was told that's what it was, and I did notice that when I used expansions, depending on how long the expansion was, it would drop it down a line but doesn't appear that way on the receiving end of the finished report. Hope that helps.

All in all I dont see much difference except the info - displayed on the sides

[ In Reply To ..]
Havent been using it long, havent figured out any of the advanced things yet but dont really need them..Up in the air so far

Gotta say I love how easy it is to look up past reports - saves a bunch of time

[ In Reply To ..]
Actually, Im liking the whole thing, except the spacing goes screwy sometimes,,,Cant fix it so not trying anymore..

DQS7 likes/dislikes - msmello

[ In Reply To ..]
DQS7 seems a tad faster, thereby improving the line count a little. There are a lot of things to be improved upon like the caps at start of sentence. I feel the QA markers should have a location on them, which makes it faster to find. ASR marker does not track well at all, it shows forward sometimes, but not backward, takes more time to find where you want to be. I like knowing what kind of report I'm getting and who the dictator is before I download it.
