Template for official meeting minutes

Is there a template for generating official meeting minutes from the transcript?

Official meetings such as Board Meetings of Corporations require meeting minutes that follow the agenda that may or may not have been in the Zoom invite.  Regardless, the minutes are required to go through all standard items of an official meeting.  These can include approval of the minutes of the previous meeting, new business, old business, project reports, committee reports, etc.  

Please include in the next upgrade a way to generate minutes based on the order in which items have been discussed.  Thank you.

    Hi ​@Diane Dunn,

     

    Thank you for joining Zoom community! 

    Yes—Zoom supports generating a meeting summary from a transcript using templates (which you can use as a “meeting minutes” starting point).

    How to use it:

    1. Open Zoom Hub
    2. Select the meeting
    3. Choose Meeting Summary and select a basic or advanced template
    4. Generate the summary from the transcript, then edit/format it into your official minutes layout as needed

    Note: template-based summaries support transcripts up to 32,000 characters.

    That does not answer my question.  I need MINUTES that are summarized by the time/order in which things were discussed not by subject.  Of course I know how to use the summary function.  I use it all the time but I have to do official minutes, which summarize by the order in which things are discussed and I hate having to re-do the entire summary that is done by subject.  Might as well take hand notes, which I do not want to do
