Article Summary

Sentence modeling can help the dictation server correctly recognize sentences and phrases that are commonly dictated by providing context for words. You can add sentence modeling that you create or add them from corrected dictation transcripts.

When organization sentence models are added, removed, or modified, account profiles are rebuilt for users in the affected organizations. If account sentence models are added, removed, or modified, that account profile is rebuilt.
