PUBLICATION FREQUENCY
Jurnal Manajemen dan Bisnis is published four times a year. Regular issues are scheduled for publication in March, June, September, and December. Each calendar year forms one volume, and the four regular issues are numbered 1 to 4 within it.
| Issue 1 | Issue 2 | Issue 3 | Issue 4 |
|---|---|---|---|
| March | June | September | December |
Manuscripts are accepted throughout the year. After peer review, revision, final editorial evaluation, and production, an accepted manuscript is assigned to a forthcoming issue.
Articles per Issue
The number of articles in each issue depends on the number of manuscripts that complete editorial evaluation and peer review.
Issue capacity does not influence editorial decisions. Manuscripts are assessed solely on scholarly quality, originality, relevance to the focus and scope of the journal, research integrity, and the outcome of the peer review process.
Submission and Editorial Timeline
Submissions are open throughout the year, and editorial screening begins after a manuscript is submitted. The stages below follow the Peer Review Process of the journal.
| Stage | Estimated time | What happens |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Initial evaluation | A maximum of 3 weeks | The editor evaluates the submitted manuscript. A manuscript that meets the minimum criteria is passed on to expert reviewers. |
| 2. Peer review | Usually up to 8 weeks | Expert reviewers evaluate the manuscript, and further rounds of review are held if the first round is inadequate. |
| 3. Decision and revision | Depends on the reviews and on the authors | The editor decides on the basis of the review reports. Authors revise the manuscript where it is required. |
| 4. Production and publication | Depends on the issue schedule | An accepted manuscript is assigned to an appropriate upcoming issue. |
These times are estimates rather than guarantees. The actual time may vary depending on reviewer availability, manuscript complexity, the revisions required, and the number of review rounds.
