Submissions
See the proposals sent to your container and the submissions in each of its sub-programs, and open any of them to view and decide, from the Submissions tab of the Multi-Program Chair Console.
Purpose
The Submissions tab lists everything submitted to your container program, grouped the way you manage it: one section for the proposals sent to the container itself, then one section for each sub-program with that sub-program's submissions. It is the same list as the organizer's View All Submissions page, limited to your container.
When you use it
- To review the proposals waiting for a decision.
- To see what has been submitted to each sub-program.
- To open a submission's full record and decide on it.
Walkthrough
- 1
Open the Multi-Program Chair Console, select your container, and open the Submissions tab.
- 2
The first section, Proposals, lists the proposals submitted to your container. Below it is one section per sub-program, in the order you set in the Programs tab. Sections with submissions start open; empty ones start collapsed. Click a section's header to open or close it.
- 3
Sort a section by clicking the arrows beside Status, Paper #, Title, or Date; click again to flip the order.
- 4
Hover over the authors or a long title to see it in full.
- 5
Click the eye icon (View and Decide) at the end of a row, or the paper number, to open the submission's page.
- 6
To decide on a proposal, use the Decision box at the top right of its page: pick Accept, Revise, or Reject, then click the button and confirm. Accept creates the sub-program (for example, the workshop) under your container and makes the proposer its chair.
Tips
The PC Decision column also has quick Accept and Reject buttons for submissions you are allowed to decide. Open the submission instead when you want to read it first or ask for a revision.
Decide a proposal from its submission page (the Decision box) or from the Decisions tab; both do the same thing. Paper-level decisions inside a sub-program stay with that sub-program's chair.
The new sub-program appears in your Programs tab and gets its own section here, and it appears in the conference's public and in-app Submission Portal and under the container in the Leadership Console's Programs tab. The proposer finds it in their sidebar under Workshop Chair Console (or your container's equivalent) after their next page load. It starts with your container's dates and a Full/Short Paper setup; if those are missing, it is created as a draft to activate once they are set.
