FAQ
I cannot send my decision on this article, what happens?
If the buttons are unavailable in the decision module, this means either:
- the status of the article does not allow a decision
- or your profile does not have the right to take the decision
Most of the time, the issue is caused by the status. Typically, the two following statuses lock the editorial decision:
- Revision in progress (with author)
- Peer review in progress (with referee)
This is to prevent two different persons working on the article at the same time.
