How to identify an issue

label tag  
volume 31  
supplement of volume 131  
number 32  
supplement of number 132  
complement 41  
sequential number 36 YYYY + the order of publication of the issue within the year. It is part of the PID of the issue and it is the order in “All issues” of the website

Identifying regular issues

Fill in the volume and number fields.

The sequential number is the year followed by the order of the issue within the year. E.g.: 20101 (first issue within the year).

Identifying supplements

If there are supplements, fill in volume, number (if applicable), and the corresponding supplement fields.

If the supplement is identified only with the label Supplement, fill in with 0, otherwise the label which identifies the supplement, for example, 1, A, etc.

On the website, in the “All issues” pages, if it is required the supplements be after all the regular issues within the year, the sequential numbers of the supplements must be greater than the last regular issue’s sequential number.

E.g.: If there are 4 regular numbers in the year, then the order of the sequential number for the supplements starts from 5.

Identifying ahead issues

Fill in the number field the word ahead, for ahead issue. By convention the order of the sequential number is 50.

Identifying press release issues

Fill in the same fields according to the rules above, plus pr in the complement field. The sequential number is the year followed by the order of the issue within the year, but by convention starts in 100.

Problems with filling in the sequential number

If the sequential number and the issue identification do not match, the program presents two situations:

  1. Sequential number belongs to another issue
_images/titlemanager_issue_sequential_number_belongs_to_another_issue.jpg
Solution:
List the issues and select the issue
  1. Mistake or replacement?
_images/titlemanager_issue_mistake_or_replacement.jpg

If the sequential number and the issue identification do not match, but the sequential number DOES NOT BELONG TO another issue, the program will ask to:

  • open the issue, with the corrected sequential number

  • change the sequential number, as informed

    Warning

    The sequential number is part of the PID. It must not be changed if the issue is already published on the website. The program does not know if the issue is already published or not.
