What keyboard shortcuts (Keystrokes) are supported in the ITC?

Answer / Solution

What are the keyboard shortcuts (keystrokes) supported in the ITC?

Summary

The foundation for increasing productivity is minimizing use of the mouse. Each time the mouse is used precious seconds are lost as hands are removed from the keyboard to the mouse and then back to the keyboard. This adds up to many minutes of potential productivity lost. Effective use of Keyboard Shortcuts will definitely increase productivity!

When learning and implementing new keystrokes, it is best to learn a few of the basic shortcuts first. Do not try to learn all keystrokes or shortcuts at once. Once you have mastered the first few keystrokes, add one or two new ones to your productivity toolbox until you have learned to use all of them and have minimized use of the mouse with transcription and editing. Keep in mind that you should only focus on the shortcuts for functions you use. This is a very individual process. We recommend starting with the functions you use the most, such as opening a job, navigating/using the ADT screen, completing a job, and so on...
