# Create Record
> Create a new clinical record from the dashboard and generate your letter
Create a record to capture a patient consultation and generate a letter. Follow the steps below from the dashboard to your first letter.
Open your MedWrite dashboard and select **New** to create a new record.
On the create letter screen you do **four** things:
* **Patient details** – Enter or select the patient.
* **AI Assistant** – Choose the assistant that matches your clinic or letter type.
* **AI Assistant Input** – Pick how to add the consultation:
* **Record** – Capture by voice. MedWrite transcribes and structures the content.
* **Manual input** – Type or paste your notes into the form.
* **Reference Files (optional)** – Upload supporting files for extra AI context before generating the letter.
After you finish the record, you are taken to the letter page. There you can review, edit, and approve the generated letter before sharing or sending.
Choose the assistant that matches your clinic or letter type so the output follows your templates and style.
## Next steps
Review, clinically approve, and export your letter as PDF or Word.
Mark letters as clinically approved before sharing or sending.
