If the RNA is messenger RNA (mRNA), the process is called transcription. There are other types of RNA that are synthesized using DNA as a template, such as transfer RNA (tRNA) and ribosomal RNA (rRNA). Unlike mRNA, these are gene products, and the term "transcription" is not used when they are made.
