5. By default, all publications have been brought in as In Process, meaning that the user needs to go in to the publication and click on Complete Now to submit it to the completed section. This is necessary because some RAE2008 Publication Types differ from RAE2001. Staff are therefore required to choose the correct 2008 category for their publication. Publications which have a Type listed here do not need changed. You should check that all other details are correct and then click on Complete Now. Where a Publication Type is NOT shown, the RAE2001 Type is no longer valid and an RAE2008 Type must be chosen. Click on the publication to choose a Type. The next slide shows how to find all your publications which do not match the RAE2008 Types.

6. The search facility allows you to select all your publications which do not match the RAE2008 Publication Types. Simply select Type Needed and click on Search. This same search facility allows you to search your publications by Author, Title, Year, Type, RAE Selected and Non-RAE Items.

7. The only publications showing are those which require a new Type to be selected. Click on this record to add a Type.
