How do I change a publication type?

RPS identifies publications by type (eg. conference paper). In some cases, you might need to change the type (eg. from conference paper to conference abstract). The publication type appears at the top of the full record in RPS. You will see a small pencil icon next to the output type.听Click on it, and you will be able to select a different type; then save your changes.

Why isn't RPS finding my conference paper by DOI? Is it necessary to add details manually?

When adding conference papers ('Add a new publication' screen), RPS will not find and retrieve an existing record from an external database (e.g. Crossref) when searching by DOI or title. The workaround is to choose the 'journal article' type (instead of Conference paper or Abstract), claim the record after searching by DOI or title, and then change the publication type (see How do I change a publication type?). This saves adding manual records for conference papers.

My publications aren't appearing in听date order. How can this be fixed?

If a publication听does not display in chronological order in RPS and Profiles, it is likely that the reporting听date field in RPS is not populated. Click on the title of the publication in RPS to view its full record.听If the reporting date field towards the top right is blank, click on the cogwheel to add the publication date, then save. The corresponding Profiles record will update overnight.

Can duplicate RPS records be merged?

If you create a basic record for a paper when it is accepted (see our guide听Record a publication in your RPS profile), and a full record is later imported into RPS from an external database like Scopus or Web of Science, the two records should merge automatically. If this does not happen, contact the Open Access Team and we will merge the duplicate records for you.

Can I allow someone else to update my publications data?

You can give another member of 果冻影院 staff delegate rights to manage your RPS record. To set up a delegate, in go to Menu (top left)听> My Profile > Settings > Manage Delegates. Enter the surname of your delegate, then select their name from the听drop-down box that will appear. Click 'Add delegate'.

How do I get access as an administrator so that I can run reports and manage publications for my department?

Contact the Open Access Team to arrange this.听

Can I get a list of my publications from RPS?

Publications lists can be exported from RPS in various formats. Click the 鈥淓XPORT鈥� button at the top of your publications list (which can also be filtered in various ways, if desired) to choose the file format, the order of the publications, and to export the list. If details are missing, you can add them manually if the file format you choose allows editing, but see also My publications aren't appearing in date order. How can this be fixed?
