How to register content

Hello @hpnlu.arun ,

Thanks for your message, and welcome to the Community Forum!

Can you please tell us, if we completed the WebDeposit Form (Journal information), added the article details, and submitted the form using the Crossref username and password? Following submission, we received a confirmation email with an XML attachment.

You should have also received a second email from admin@crossref.org that contains a submission log with the results of your submission. That log tells you if your submission passed all of other checks and whether or not your registration was successful. Did you receive that submission log. It looks like this:

If you did not receive that second email, it could indicate a problem with your account.

Later, upon verifying the XML file data, if any mistakes were found in the name or other fields, we would either need to generate a new XML file by refilling the WebDeposit Form or edit the existing XML file directly.

Yes, that’s correct. If you want to update or modify a DOI that you previously registered using the web deposit form, you’d need to either re-key the metadata into the web deposit form with the changes included in that resubmission or you could alter the XML file. If altering the XML file, you’ll need to be sure that in addition to the metadata updates you make in the XML file that you also increase the timestamp value, as described here.

Warm regards,
Isaac
