Desktop Widget

Use draggy-droppy or click-to-copy to export your notes in seconds!

Updated this week

The Scribenote Desktop Widget is a downloadable desktop app that will eliminate the need to keep flipping back and forth between Scribenote and your PIMS while you're transferring your completed notes over, saving you precious seconds! πŸ’―

The Desktop Widget is available on both Windows and Mac!

See how it works here:


Cool Things about the Desktop Widget 😎

  1. It's there when you need it, and hidden when you don't. You can always have it open alongside your PIMS and move it to wherever is most convenient, then minimize it when you don't need it.

  2. It takes literal seconds to transfer your Scribenote notes into your PIMS.

  3. You can call it ✨ Draggy-Droppy, Click to Copy ✨ because it's fun to say :)

Where the Desktop Widget really shines is speeding up the data entry of complex PIMS note forms. For example, we've done tests with Avimark and noted a reduction of transfer time from approximately 45 seconds per record down to 15 seconds per record.

Downloading the Desktop Widget

(Optional) Click on the settings icon and select your PIMS system from the dropdown. This will help us improve the widget and be able to tailor it for specific PIMS in the future!


How does the Desktop Widget work?

  1. Open the desktop widget.

  2. Sign in with your Scribenote account credentials.

  3. Start exporting your notes! If needed, you can search and filter through your notes ready to be exported.

The widget will only display your completed (ie submitted) notes, so make sure you've reviewed any notes still in "Ready for Review" before using the exporting widget! πŸ—’οΈ

Viewing and exporting your notes

Click on a note to open it and you'll see several copy buttons for each of the SOAP fields as well as a copy button for the full SOAP with all the fields.

Expand to View. Click the down arrow on the right of the button to expand that section of the SOAP. This will allow you to view and read the entire section of the note. (Click the up arrow on that section to collapse it again.)


​

(1) Draggy-Droppy. Click and hold the button, then drag to where you want the contents of the note to go!

CAUTION: Some applications do not support dragging and dropping. In those cases, please use the "Click to Copy" functionality instead.

(2) Click to Copy. Click the button, then paste to where you want the contents of the note to go using Ctrl + V or right-clicking.

When you're done with exporting the note, you can click Mark as Exported to clear it from the widget (the note will now appear in the Exported tab in your expanded Inbox on the web app).

Using Teams Mode with the Draggy-Droppy

If you and your team members are set up with Teams mode, you can use the Draggy-Droppy to export notes for one another. For example, if you're a staff member looking to export a doctor's notes into their PIMS, you can use the Draggy-Droppy to do that.

To do this, simply click on the text that says "______ Outbox" at the top of the filtering options.

Then you'll see a dropdown to allow you to select a different team member. After you've selected an option, you'll now be acting as that other team member. That means you can export notes on their behalf.
