When preparing documents in Writer and managing customer data in Desk, you might have noticed the names, designation, or other data related to your organization being flagged as unrecognized words or typos.
This can be troublesome, as you probably have to either add the word to your dictionary or ignore them in that instance alone. To avoid this hassle, Zoho One provides Org Dictionary.
Org Dictionary automatically adds your organization's department names, designations, and employees' first and last names to its word lists. It also lets you manually add words related to your organization that are commonly unrecognized by Zia spell check in apps such as Writer.
Your organization's employees' first and last names are automatically synced and added to Org Dictionary only if they are added with an email address with a domain that is verified in Zoho One. To do so, you have to
associate your organization's domain with Zoho One . If you have not associated your domain yet or if you currently don't own any domains, the above details will not be automatically synced with Org Dictionary.
Supported apps
Words that were added to Org Dictionary will no longer be flagged as typos by the following Zoho apps:
- Notebook - When taking notes.
- Desk - When creating and responding to tickets, or creating templates for email or ticket replies.
- WorkDrive - When creating documents in Writer, or spreadsheets in Sheets or presentations in Show.
Once the words are added to the Org Dictionary, they will be recognized by the supported apps integrated to your Zoho One organization.
For example, consider an employee named Vahmond Blanche joins your organization in Zoho One. His name, department, and designation will be automatically synced and added to the Org Dictionary. Now when anyone from your organization types his name in the supported apps such as Writer, Notebook, or Desk, it will be recognized as an actual word and will not be flagged as a typo.
