What it Does
The Bid Stage is a feature of the OpenReview Paper Matching system that allows reviewers to indicate their preference of which papers they would like to review and place bids. See Score Specification to see how bids are then converted into scores.
When to Use it
The Bid Stage should not be run until after the submission deadline, except in the case of public, single blind venues. For public and single-blind venues, the Bid Stage can be run before the submission deadline if they first run 'Post Submission Stage' to create paper groups.
It is recommended that venues first run Paper Matching to compute conflict of interest before opening the Bid Stage, but this is not required. If the conflict of interest scores are taken into account, the reviewers' own papers will be excluded from their bid selections.
The Post Submission Stage creates Paper groups and sets the readers of submissions accordingly. It also creates the anonymized versions of submissions, if applicable.
The Post Submission Stage should be used when paper groups and blind copies need to be created. In general, this should be done:
After the Abstract Registration deadline to allow authors to revise their submissions
After the Submission Deadline to hide fields from authors or update submission readers
After the submission deadline has passed a second time after having been extended
When the readers of the submissions need to be updated
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.
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.
The Post Decision Stage updates the visibility and anonymity of submissions after decisions have been posted.
The Post Decision Stage will only appear after the Decision Stage deadline. If you have already successfully posted all decisions but the Post Decision Stage has not yet appeared, you can re-run the Decision stage to make the deadline earlier.
The Revision button on the venue request form allows you to modify selections made in the support request form. There are also new fields, 'Additional Submission' and 'Remove Submission Options', which allow PCs to modify the submission form.
Use of the Revision button will overwrite any changes to the Submission invitation that were made through the invitation editor rather than through the venue request form.
The Review Stage creates paper groups and review invitations. It should be used to edit the Review form. Use of the Review Stage will overwrite any changes made to the Review Invitations through the Invitation Editor. It also sets the visibility of all existing and future reviews.
The Review Stage should not be run until after the submission deadline, except in the case of public, single blind venues. They can begin the Review Stage before the submission deadline if they first run 'Post Submission Stage' to create paper groups.
The Comment Stage creates for all submissions with custom participants. The Comment forms have a dropdown menu where users can select the intended readers of their comments.
The Decision Stage creates decision invitations for Program Chairs. Use of the Decision Stage will overwrite any changes made to the Decision Invitations through the Invitation Editor. It will also overwrite any customized readership settings that were not made through the venue request form.
The Decision Stage should not be run until after the submission deadline, except in the case of public, single blind venues. They can begin the Decision Stage before the submission deadline if they first run 'Post Submission Stage' to create paper groups.
The Submission Revision Stage creates invitations that allow authors to revise their original submissions.
Double blind venues can only run the Submission Revision Stage after the submission deadline has passed. Single-blind venues can run the Submission Revision Stage before the submission deadline if they first run Post Submission Stage.
What it Does
The Registration Stage creates a registration task for reviewers (and ACs, if applicable).
When to Use it
The Registration Stage can be run an any point during your workflow, though it is usually enabled at the begining to collect information from reviewers and/or ACs. It can also be used to ask users to update their profiles and import their publications.
Options
If your venue has area chairs, you will see two registration buttons, one for reviewers and one for ACs. Each form will have the following fields:
