Procedure

  1. From the Custom Questions configuration area, click Advanced View.
  2. Create a new Detail Group with the following details:
    • Name: Authorship Changes
    • Page: Authors & Institutions (name may vary depending on individual site, but the recommendation is to add this information to the page with the relevant author details)
    • Submission Group (as relevant): DEFAULT and REX
    • Order can follow the configurator's preference
  3. Select the Add Questions action and create a question with the following details:
    • Question Name: Authorship Changes (you can customize this question name, as it is not a connection point between Author Portal and ScholarOne, but it is significant for email tag usage in ScholarOne email communications. This example's resulting email tag in ScholarOne would be ##TAG_AUTHORSHIP_CHANGES##)
    • Question Text: Authorship Changes
    • Answer Type: Textarea
    • Include in advanced search and create an email tag for this question
    • Answer Name: text
    • Answer External ID: REX-CQ-AC-01x
  4. Create a layout for this question, 2 rows and 1 column.
    • In the first cell, apply the Authorship Changes with the Color Light Grey and Bold.
    • In the second cell, apply the answer area only. Select “on” for the table border and save.
  5. Be sure to flush the configuration cache.
