Submitting to JMS#

  1. Open the issue on JIRA. It must be Approved.

  2. Click on the Submit to MC transition. A pop-up will be shown.

Submit to MC pop-up

  1. In the pop-up, you should have all the necessary information

    • Note: links in the pop-up window are not clickable: double-click, then use right-click to Open in New Tab

    • MCEntryURL has the link to Manuscript Central (MC) in order to submit

    • Manuscript Central Identifier to find the manuscript

    • Field [MCRecommendationV2] has the information about how the editorial office should proceed, to be selected in the JMS

      • In cases where MCStatus contains RR, the information will be in field [MCRecommendation]

    • Field [Git working location] has the information to clone the repository (and thus be able to access the report)

  2. If necessary, clone the Bitbucket repository associated with the issue. You should find a REPLICATION.pdf there.

If there is no REPLICATION.pdf

… then the Approver probably forgot to create it. Contact the Approver to avoid any misunderstandings.
