"name": "joe-submission",
"description": "Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for the Journal of Econometrics (JoE) — live portal routing, the USD $75 fee, ScienceDirect source-file rules, Editorial Express resubmission norms, 250-word abstract, single-anonymized review, and track selection. Final checks; it does not draft content."

Submission Preflight (joe-submission)
When to trigger
- "Submitting tomorrow" — last check before pressing submit through the live official portal
- Unsure whether the current route is Editorial Manager or Editorial Express, or which track to pick
- Confirming format, abstract length, and fee/proof-of-payment requirements
- Checking declarations and the PDF is single-anonymized-ready
Process facts (verified on 2026-06-20; re-confirm volatile portal routing on the official pages)
- JoE is published by Elsevier (founded 1973); Co-Editors-in-Chief Michael Jansson (UC Berkeley) and Aureo de Paula (UCL).
- Portal: ScienceDirect's current Submit your article link points new submissions to Editorial Manager. JoE's own Google Sites Guidelines still says all submissions are made through Editorial Express, and the Editorial Express
dbase=jepage now says it is for resubmissions only and links new submissions to Editorial Manager. Start from the live ScienceDirect/JoE official link; use Editorial Express when the live route or resubmission flow directs you there. - Fee: a USD $75 nonrefundable submission fee applies to new submissions and resubmissions over one year old. VAT is added for European authors; no student discounts or refunds.
- Files/format: the ScienceDirect Guide asks for editable source files (
.doc/.docxor.tex) and says PDF is not an acceptable source file for that requirement. The Editorial Express resubmission flow instructs a PDF-only upload, with main text around 40 pages at ≥1.5 spacing and 11pt font. - Abstract: ≤ 250 words, concise and factual; avoid references unless essential, and cite author/year if included.
- Review: single-anonymized — referees know authors; authors do not know referees.
- Tracks: choose Regular, Annals, or Themed Issue (see
joe-review-process).
Preflight checklist
Format & style
- Editable source files staged (
.doc/.docxor.tex) for the ScienceDirect/Editorial Manager route - If using the Editorial Express resubmission flow: one single PDF with manuscript, theorems/proofs, tables, figures, and appendices embedded
- Main text ~40 pages, ≥1.5 spacing, 11pt when the Editorial Express resubmission form applies
- Abstract ≤ 250 words; any cited references spelled out in full
- elsarticle LaTeX class / Elsevier reference style; dataset citations tagged
[dataset] - Tables/figures numbered, called out in order, with self-contained notes (DGP, $n$, reps)
- PDF compiles cleanly; math and figures legible at print resolution
Fee & proof of payment
- $75 fee paid if required (VAT added for EU authors); proof of payment file ready if the live route requests it
- Confirmed whether this is a new submission or a resubmission > 1 year (fee trigger)
Single-anonymized readiness
- Manuscript may carry author identity (single-anonymized) — but confirm no confidential referee-only content is exposed
- Acknowledgments/funding handled per the guide
Files for the live portal
- Main manuscript source files (
.doc/.docxor.tex) and any portal-requested PDF - Proof-of-payment document if requested by the live route
- Cover letter (problem, the methodological advance, fit; note the track and any Themed-Issue call)
- Suggested/excluded referees prepared (expert, fair, conflict-free)
Declarations & content sanity
- Conflict-of-interest / funding disclosures prepared; paper not under review elsewhere
- Abstract states the contribution as a property (see
joe-writing-style) - Assumptions/asymptotics airtight (see
joe-identification-strategy); Monte Carlo reports size + power (seejoe-data-analysis) - No over-claiming beyond what the theorems support
Anti-patterns
- Forgetting the $75 fee / proof-of-payment step when the live portal requires it
- Assuming the old Editorial Express-only route still governs new submissions without checking the current official link
- A >250-word abstract or a non-PDF upload
- Picking a Themed Issue track the paper does not fit
Output format
【Single PDF】manuscript + proofs + exhibits embedded? [Y/N]
