META-REVIEWER
A Meta-Reviewer will need to be in the conference.
Let’s say you have just added a Meta-Reviewer to your conference.
- Go to the Manage Senior Meta-Reviewers page and click the number in the ‘Assigned’ column.
The ‘Edit Senior Meta-Reviewer Assignments’ page opens.
This is what the Senior Meta-Reviewer page would look like with just one Meta-Reviewer.
- Check the box at the end of the row.
This will eventually assign whatever paper assigned to the Meta-Reviewer also be assigned to the Senior Meta-Reviewer.
You would then have to assign a paper to the Meta-Reviewer in order for the Senior Meta-Reviewer to see it.
- Find the paper you want, then from the Edit Assignments (Meta-Reviewer) page check the box at the end of the row of the Meta-Reviewer you want assigned this paper.
The paper will be seen in the Senior Meta-Reviewer Console.
Note
The Meta-Reviewer will not see the assignment until the Meta-Reviewer submission is enabled in the timeline.
