SEIPID Workflow

A journal manager, publisher, or institutional representative creates a SEIPID account. This establishes an identifiable system participant.

Basic identity validation is conducted through automated checks and, where necessary, manual review. This ensures accountability and traceability within the registry.

The verified user submits details of the journal, repository, publisher, or institutional unit intended to issue SEIPIDs. Required documentation and structural information are reviewed against registry criteria.

Submitted entities undergo validation. Once approved, the entity is activated within the SEIPID portal and becomes eligible to issue identifiers.

Activated entities select an appropriate issuance plan based on expected volume and operational needs. Identifier allocation limits are assigned according to the selected plan.

Metadata records are submitted through the SEIPID portal. Upon successful validation, SEIPIDs are generated and assigned to the registered scholarly objects.

Authorized entity managers may update metadata records through controlled revision mechanisms. All modifications are logged for audit and traceability.

Periodic checks ensure continued compliance with registry standards and metadata integrity requirements, preserving the credibility of issued identifiers.
