Sending a Note to the Editors
Sending the editors a separate note to add a correction or an explanation to a review you have already submitted.
A submitted review does not change. You send a correction or explanation you want to add later to the editors as a separate note. The author does not see this note.
- On the Author & reviewer → Reviewing screen, open the Completed tab.
- In the row of the review, press View report.
- On the Note to the editors card under the review, write your note in the Your note field. The note must be at least 5 characters long.
- Press Send note.
The note is saved separately from the review, and the editors of the submission get a notification. The editors see the note as an internal note on the Messages tab of the submission. The notes you sent are listed with their dates on the same card.
The card appears only after the review has been submitted. While the review is a draft, you make the correction directly in the form.
