You will need the following before you begin:

• Log in to the ITC using your email address and password provided by your Administrator.
  
  
• Double-Click on a job to open it into the ITC Editor. 

This is the scenario in which the end of a dictation is reached but another dictation will clearly be needed to complete the report.

• Choose File and then choose Mark as Awaiting Addendum (Ctrl-Shift-Z). 

• Click Yes to confirm. 
• A final confirmation message will display to alert you that the job will be placed in a holding state.  Click Yes to confirm.
  
• The job will leave the transcriptionist's queue and will be in a holding state on the servers until an addendum is attached by a transcriptionist at a later time. 

Note: If you have transcribed or edited any text in the addendum, the changes will not automatically combine with the original job. The text would need to be copied and pasted into the original job. 

This is the scenario in which a transcriptionist opens a dictation and learns it is actually an addendum that needs to be incorporated into a previously submitted job.

• A window will appear with recent jobs from this author. 

• Choose from the list provided or search by Job Number, by Job Subject, or by Patient Name.
  
  
• Highlight the job and click the Attach Addendum button.
  
  
• Confirm Your Selection.  A warning is display with details that continuing will discard any changes and any First Draft content on the job which is being attached as an addendum.  Click Yes to confirm. The two jobs will be merged (under the original job number) and will be assigned to the transcriptionist who attached the addendum (if the original job is available for work at this time). 
  
  
  
• When the original job comes into the queue, the audio will be positioned at the beginning of the addendum where the transcriptionist can transcribe it and send the job on to the next workflow step.
