Sentence models will be added to the organization selected here. Navigate this menu by using the Expand All button to open all organizations, by clicking the > arrow next to each organization level to open it, or by typing an organization name in the Filter text field.

   • You can multi-select and drag up to five files at once. If you drag more than five files you'll see a message that there were too many files and the message will include a list of the names of the files that were NOT added.
   • When five (5) files have been added, the file drop area will disappear.
   • Each file must have a .txt, .doc, or .docx extension. Files with a .doc and .docx files are automatically converted to text (.txt) files upon upload.
   • Duplicate files/file names are allowed.
   • If you need to create a file, see Creating Your Own Sentence Model Document.
     

5. The system will check the files for issues.
   • If there are no issues with the files, skip to step 6. 
   • Certain issues such as an invalid file type will not allow the file to be uploaded at all and will not appear in the list of documents to be uploaded. 
   • If the file is too big or empty you will see a warning appear below the list of files letting you know that the file will be skipped. You can either click the X next to the file name in the list to remove it from the list of documents to be added, or you can go ahead with the upload and the system will attempt to add other files in the list that did not have issues (if any).
     

6. Click the Save button at the bottom of the page to upload the sentence model document(s).
   • Sentence models are updated in user accounts asynchronously which means that after adding them in nVoq.Administrator, affected user profiles are updated in the background. Voice client users can still perform dictations while sentence modeling is being updated. Dictations won't have the benefit of the new sentence modeling until after the job has completed. 
   • If a user's account has reached the 1MB limit when you try to upload a new sentence model document you will receive an error message that the "Total size limit of 1.0MB was exceeded." for that user. If added to an organization, the sentence model may still be applied to other user accounts that have not reached their limit. See Known Limitations
   • Sentence models may include unknown words. Unknown words in sentence model documents are ignored by dictation server. That means they will not be recognized when you dictate. If there might be unknown words in your sentence model that should be recognized during dictation, you should check the sentence model for unknown words and add them to vocabulary.
