Once a caller has provided their voice responses to text fields, the transcription of those fields will take a few minutes. While that is happening, the agent will see "Transcription is in progress" messages for each field awaiting transcription and can listed directly to the attached audio recording(s). If the caller has been placed into the phone queue, the agent can answer the call by clicking Answer call as shown below.
