The Ethics Review stage is available to any venue that selected "Yes, our venue has Ethics Chairs and Reviewers" on their venue request form. Running the Ethics Review stage will create Paper#/Ethics_Reviewers groups and Ethics Review Form invitations for each flagged paper.
When to Use It
The Ethics Review Stage can be run at any time after the Submission Deadline for Double Blind conferences and any time after Post Submission Stage is run for Single Blind conferences. It can be run multiple times with different paper selections; if you run it again, excluding a paper that was originally flagged, that paper will be removed unless it already has an ethics reviewer assigned to it. The flagged papers list must always contain all of the papers that should be flagged for ethics review.
