For each user, you can select how the dictation will be sent.

• None:

  The dictation will not be sent.

• Express Delegate:

  Express Delegate (v4.00 or above) is a dedicated dictation workflow management server. It offers several advantages over other send methods, such as the ability to automatically assign typing tasks to members of typing pools based on customizable rules and criteria.

  The Express Delegate server can be a computer that is accessible across a LAN (local area network) or the internet. The Express Delegate administrator will need to create an account before you can logon to the server. Please consult the Express Delegate help for more information on installing Express Delegate, configuring the server, and creating user accounts.

• FTP:

  Send dictations directly to an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) server. Note that you must have your own directory on this server. You do not need to host your own server - almost all ISP web hosting services offer FTP access which is suitable and very affordable, and the server can be located anywhere in the world. NCH Software provides a list of recommended FTP hosting services here.

• Email:

  If you select this option, the recipient will be sent the dictation as a file attached to an email.

• Local Folder:

  If your typist is in your own office the fastest way to send typing to them is over your LAN (local area network). For this, your typist must have a share folder on the network - if necessary ask your systems administrator to create a suitable folder.

  Alternatively, this option can be used for writing dictations to a removable media such as a USB memory device or a floppy disk.
