Manuscript submission:

Submit the manuscript and track its status on the Journal Dashboard.

If the journal is not accessible through the Editorial Publishing System, please ask the journal editor to specify how and when the journal editors inform about the status of a manuscript.

Step 6:
Manuscript acceptance:

If the manuscript is accepted for publication, it will be assigned to one of the journal issues and forwarded to the publisher.

The editor of the journal must provide you with information on the issue number and time of publication.
