Author Guidelines

Submission, Peer Review, Revision, and Manuscript Withdrawal

1. Manuscript Submission

All manuscripts should be submitted to the Editor of Revenue Journal: Management and Entrepreneurship through the Online Submission System at https://www.journal.assyfa.com/index.php/rjme/about/submissions .

If authors experience difficulties during the online submission process, they may contact the Editorial Office at [email protected].

Revenue Journal: Management and Entrepreneurship accepts scientific articles reporting research results, research reviews, methodologies, or new approaches in economics, management, and business research that are relevant to the journal's focus and scope.

2. Originality and Exclusive Submission

Only manuscripts that have not been published previously and are not under consideration for publication in another journal or other primary publication venue will be considered for publication.

Important: Authors must not submit the same manuscript or a substantially similar manuscript simultaneously to another journal while the manuscript remains active in the editorial process of Revenue Journal: Management and Entrepreneurship.

If authors intend to submit the manuscript to another journal, they must first submit a formal withdrawal request and obtain official confirmation of withdrawal from the Editorial Office.

Simultaneous submission of the same manuscript to multiple journals may constitute a publication ethics concern and will be handled in accordance with the journal's Publication Ethics policy.

3. Language and Length

Manuscripts may be written in English or Indonesian. The manuscript should not exceed 8 pages, including tables, figures, and references, unless otherwise specified by the journal.

The abstract must be provided in English and Indonesian. Each abstract should contain approximately 150–200 words and should be accompanied by 3–5 keywords for indexing purposes.

4. Title and Author Information

The title of the manuscript should be concise, informative, and relevant to the content of the article, with a maximum of 18 words.

The names of all authors should be written in full and accompanied by their institutional affiliations and the relevant institutional address.

The corresponding author is responsible for communication with the Editorial Office and for ensuring that all listed authors have reviewed and approved the submitted manuscript and its subsequent revisions.

5. Manuscript Structure

Research articles should generally be organized in the following order:

  1. Title
  2. Author name(s) and affiliation(s)
  3. Abstract
  4. Keywords
  5. Introduction
  6. Literature Review or relevant theoretical framework, where appropriate
  7. Materials and Methods / Research Methods
  8. Results
  9. Discussion
  10. Conclusion and Recommendations
  11. References

The structure may be adjusted according to the characteristics of the research and the requirements of the journal. The introduction should clearly present the research background, relevant literature, research gap, problem statement, and/or research objectives.

6. References and Citation

Authors are encouraged to use a reference management tool such as Mendeley, EndNote, or Zotero to manage citations and references consistently.

Authors should follow the citation and reference style specified in the current journal template. Where applicable, the journal uses APA style for citations and references.

7. Peer Review and Revision

Manuscripts that pass the initial editorial screening may be sent for peer review. The journal may request revisions based on the comments and recommendations of reviewers and the Editor.

Submission of a revised manuscript does not automatically mean that the manuscript has been accepted.

After receiving a revised manuscript, the Editor may evaluate the revisions directly or may send the manuscript back to the original reviewer or another reviewer when further verification is considered necessary.

Revised does not mean Accepted. Further editorial assessment or re-review may be required before a final publication decision is made.

8. Publication Schedule and Fast Publication Requests

The Editor may communicate an estimated or target publication schedule to authors. Such a schedule is an editorial target and does not constitute a guarantee of publication on a specific date.

Authors may request expedited consideration or publication. However, a request for fast publication cannot be used to eliminate, bypass, or improperly shorten necessary peer review, revision, re-review, editorial verification, technical checking, or final editorial decision-making.

The journal will make reasonable efforts to meet its publication schedule, while maintaining the quality, independence, and integrity of the peer-review and editorial processes.

9. Manuscript Withdrawal

Authors may request withdrawal of their manuscript before publication. However, once a manuscript has entered the editorial, peer-review, revision, re-review, editorial decision, or production stage, the withdrawal request must follow the journal's official Withdrawal Policy.

A withdrawal request is not automatically effective merely because the corresponding author sends an email, OJS message, or other informal communication. Withdrawal becomes effective only after the Editorial Office provides official confirmation.

Authors are encouraged to carefully consider withdrawal once substantial editorial or peer-review work has been undertaken, as editors and reviewers may already have contributed considerable professional time and expertise to the evaluation of the manuscript.

10. Withdrawal Administrative Fee

To ensure transparency, authors are informed at the time of submission that withdrawal after substantial editorial or peer-review work may be subject to a Withdrawal Administrative Fee.

The applicable fee is determined according to the editorial stage at the time the formal withdrawal request is received by the Editorial Office.

Editorial Stage Administrative Fee
After submission, before peer review begins IDR 500,000
After peer review has started IDR 750,000
After reviewer evaluation has been completed IDR 1,000,000
After a revision decision has been issued IDR 1,250,000
After the revised manuscript has been submitted and is under verification IDR 1,500,000
After re-review or additional revision has been completed IDR 2,000,000
After acceptance and during production, before publication IDR 2,500,000

The Withdrawal Administrative Fee is an administrative charge associated with editorial and peer-review resources already committed to the manuscript. It is not, by itself, a finding of publication misconduct.

11. Author Responsibility

By submitting a manuscript, authors confirm that they have read and understood the journal's Author Guidelines, Peer Review Policy, Publication Ethics, and Withdrawal Policy.

Authors are expected to provide accurate information, respond to editorial and reviewer communications in a timely manner, and participate responsibly in the revision and evaluation process.

12. Required Forms and Templates

Authors should complete and submit all documents required by the journal, including the following:

Submission means entering an editorial process.

Authors are welcome to communicate with the Editor regarding legitimate concerns, but publication speed must not compromise peer review, revision verification, editorial assessment, or publication integrity.

Policy Notice: Authors should read this Author Guidelines page together with the journal's Peer Review Policy, Publication Ethics, and Withdrawal Policy before submitting a manuscript.
