How do I Access a New Submission?

When a submission is completed, all users with Press Editor permissions will receive an email notifying them that the submission has been received. Clicking on the project, via the Editor Dashboard will provide all data and files submitted.

The project pages are available as below:

• My Tasks: will show any outstanding tasks that the specific user has assigned to them linked to this submission
• Current Status: displays a timeline of the main stages and actions that the submission has been through, along with the date that the action was completed
• Submission Details: provides the abstract, cover letter, suggested reviewer details, author name, and all files uploaded to the submission.
• Notes: allows the editor to create notes that are kept associated with the submission
• Catalog: provides all metadata fields for processing and publication - e.g. title, licence, contributor details
• Log: provides a record of all emails and events associated with the submission
• Editorial Decision buttons: allows the editor to make editorial decisions, pushing the submission to the next stage of the process, asking for revisions, or rejecting the submission

When a new book is submitted, examining the ‘Submission Details’ should be the first action for an editor. This will provide them with the names of the author/volume editor, the submitted files, the abstract of the book, the cover letter, suggested reviewer detailed (if provided), a competing interests statement (if provided). If the book had been accepted from a proposal, it will also include a link to the proposal details.
