Editorial roles
The right view for every role in the editorial team
Each role in Alkademy Press sees only what they need. The editor-in-chief sees all submissions across all sections. Section editors see their assigned queue. Managing editors see operational metrics. Reviewers see only their assigned manuscripts.
- Editor-in-Chief: full journal view, all submissions, all reviewers
- Section Editor: assigned submission queue only
- Managing Editor: operational dashboard — volume, timelines, reviewer pool
- Copy Editor: accepted manuscripts awaiting copy-editing stage
- Reviewer: assigned manuscripts, deadlines, review form
- Author: own submissions, status, revision requests

Reporting and audit
Metrics that tell you where the bottlenecks are
The reporting dashboard surfaces time-to-decision, acceptance rate, reviewer acceptance rate, and revision round counts — the five metrics that actually diagnose journal health. Every editorial action is logged with actor, resource, and timestamp.
- Time-to-first-decision per submission and as a journal average
- Acceptance rate by period, section, and submission type
- Reviewer accept/decline ratio and average review completion time
- Revision round count per accepted paper
- Full audit log: action, actor, diff, IP address, timestamp
- Webhook notifications for integration with external tools
