If you encounter a split job while transcribing or reviewing in the M*Modal Editor, place your cursor at the location where the first job ends and the second begins. Navigate to the file menu Report --> Split Document at Cursor. This will split your job at your current cursor location.

 

Jobs may be split as many times as required. Each job receives the same job number as the original job, followed by a hyphen and a number indicating which split job it is. For example, if your job number is 1234567, the first job split from the original will be numbered 1234567-1, the second job split will be 1234567-2, and so on.


Steps to Split a Job in the M*Modal Editor

1.Identify the location where the first job ends and the next job begins. Locating split jobs in draft documents is easy since phrases like 'next patient' or 'next dictation' will appear in the draft. Also, a visual cue that your job is a split job is repeating section titles in the draft.

 

In the image below, note the phrase 'Next patient.' To split this job, place your cursor to the left of the phrase 'Next patient.'
