After the article is submitted through the article tracking system, from a personal page entered with an email address and password, the review process can be followed from the same system. After this stage, reports should be expected from all referees to make corrections. Because authors can add a report to the system once. If a second referee requests a correction at the next stage, the desired corrections will not be made when the article is added to the system.
