Manage your journals from submission to publication with Open Access Flow
OAF works with your existing OJS journals and gives your editorial office the tools to track submissions, choose reviewers, keep decisions moving and prepare for indexing.

The journal overview brings together active and overdue submissions and the stage each manuscript has reached. Editors and managing editors start the day from the same picture of the workflow.
Watch the overviewSubmission tracker
Every manuscript in one list, with its current stage, handling editor, deadline and the days it has spent in the workflow. Filter by editor, phase or article type, and see at once which submissions are on track, overdue, done or declined.
Explore the Submission trackerReviewer finder
When you add a reviewer, OAF shows how each candidate matches the submission's expertise, with their on-time rate, rating, average days to complete and current workload. Invite an existing user or create a new reviewer without leaving the submission.
Explore the Reviewer finderEditor reminders
Decide how many days a new submission or a completed review can wait before the editor is reminded, and how often reminders repeat while the submission still needs attention. OAF sends them automatically through the scheduled task.
