Author Guide: How to Submit a Manuscript
Submitting a manuscript through ScholarJMS takes about 10 minutes. This guide explains how to create an author account, prepare your files, complete the submission form, and track your submission status through the review process.
Before You Submit
Review the journal's Author Guidelines (available on the journal website) and confirm your manuscript is within scope, follows the formatting requirements, and has not been submitted elsewhere simultaneously. All co-authors must approve the submission before it is made.
Step 1 — Register or Log In
Visit the journal's website and click Submit Manuscript. If you are a new user, create a free author account using your institutional or personal email. If you have an ORCID iD, you can link it during registration for automatic author identification across submissions.
ORCID: ScholarJMS integrates with ORCID. Linking your ORCID iD ensures your publications are automatically attributed to your researcher profile.
Step 2 — Start a New Submission
From your author dashboard, click New Submission and complete each section:
Manuscript Details
Title, abstract (150–300 words), keywords (4–6 terms), article type (Research Article, Review, Case Study, etc.), and subject area.
Co-Authors
Add all contributing authors in order. For each, enter their full name, institutional affiliation, and email. The corresponding author is marked and will receive all editorial correspondence.
File Upload
Upload the manuscript file (PDF, DOCX, or LaTeX ZIP). Figures and supplementary files can be uploaded separately. Maximum file size: 50 MB per file.
Declarations
Conflict of interest declaration, funding acknowledgement, ethical approval reference (if applicable), and data availability statement.
Step 3 — Review and Submit
ScholarJMS shows a submission summary before you confirm. Review all details — once submitted, the manuscript enters the editorial queue and co-authors receive a confirmation email. You will see the submission in your dashboard with status Submitted.
Tracking Your Submission
Your author dashboard shows real-time status for every submission. Status labels:
