Before you begin

The patient is registered in MANSOQ, and you attach the file to that patient.
If you attach the file to an encounter, the encounter is not inactive.
The file is not larger than 100 MB.
The file is an image, a video, an audio file, a text file, an office document, or a PDF.
You have the permissions listed below.

1. Open the Files tab

Open the patient or the encounter that the file belongs to.

Select the Files tab.

2. Add the file

Select Add Files. MANSOQ shows a dropdown with three ways to add a file.

Option	What it does
Upload From Device	Opens the file picker of your device. Select one or more files.
Open Camera	Opens a full-screen camera view. Take a photo. Keep the photo or take it again.
Record Audio	Opens an audio recorder with a live timer. Record your voice. Save the recording.

To add a photo, select Open Camera. You can switch between the front camera, the back camera, and another connected camera. Select the capture control to take the photo. Select the retake control to take the photo again.

To add a recording, select Record Audio. Select Stop to end the recording. Listen to the preview. Save the recording. MANSOQ saves the recording as an mp3 file. MANSOQ gives the file a name with a timestamp.

3. Name the files

MANSOQ opens the upload dialog after you add one or more files.

Enter a name for each file. A name is required for every file.

Note: If you add two or more images, MANSOQ shows the Combine Files To PDF option. Select this option to merge the images into one PDF.

4. Upload the files

Select Upload.

MANSOQ shows a progress bar for each file.
