Advances in Managerial Auditing Research (AMAR) publishes one annual volume comprising exactly three regular numbered issues: No. 1, No. 2, and No. 3. The journal maintains a regular publication frequency of three issues per year, with each issue assigned to its applicable annual volume.

The journal's official publication schedule consists of Issue No. 1 January–April, Issue No. 2 May–August, and Issue No. 3 September–December. These periods define the journal's regular annual issue structure.

AMAR also applies a continuous-publication model within the applicable numbered issue, subject to completion of all scientific-editorial, administrative, production, and metadata-verification requirements. Continuous publication does not establish an additional numbered issue or alter the journal's official annual publication frequency.

AMAR follows a calendar-year publication schedule consisting of one annual volume and three regular numbered issues. The designated issue periods are as follows:

Issue No. 1 — January–April: The first regular numbered issue covers the January–April period of the applicable annual volume.

Issue No. 2 — May–August: The second regular numbered issue covers the May–August period of the applicable annual volume.

Issue No. 3 — September–December: The third regular numbered issue covers the September–December period and completes the journal's annual publication cycle.

These three periods establish the journal's official regular issue structure. Each annual volume contains exactly three regular numbered issues. The continuous-publication model does not increase the number of issues or establish a separate unnumbered publication cycle.

Publication-Date Integrity: The designated issue periods do not replace the actual formal publication dates recorded for individual articles or historical issues. Official publication dates, volume assignments, issue numbers, article metadata, and DOI records must be represented accurately.

Beginning prospectively on 1 September 2026, AMAR introduced a continuous-publication model within the applicable active numbered issue. Under this model, an article that has completed all required scientific-editorial, administrative, and publication-production procedures may be released individually without waiting for every other manuscript assigned to the same issue to complete production.

The normal post-acceptance publication process is Final Editorial Acceptance → APC or Waiver Verification → Post-Acceptance Administration → Copyediting → Proofreading & Production → Metadata Verification → Version of Record → Online Publication.

Continuous publication concerns the timing of an individual article's formal release within its designated numbered issue. It does not create an additional issue, increase the annual publication frequency, change the journal's one-volume-per-year structure, or authorize publication outside the applicable official schedule.

Continuous publication does not reduce the journal's standards for double-anonymous peer review, independent academic editorial decisions, research integrity, manuscript quality, publication ethics, or post-acceptance quality control. An article must satisfy all applicable requirements before formal publication.

Where an Article Processing Charge or full waiver applies, the relevant payment or waiver administration is conducted after final scientific-editorial acceptance. APC payment, eligibility, or waiver status does not determine the scientific-editorial acceptance decision or independently guarantee a publication date, issue assignment, or production priority.

The final article formally published on the official AMAR website constitutes the journal's authoritative Version of Record. The formal publication date must correspond to the actual date on which the final Version of Record is made publicly available online.

Published articles must contain accurate and appropriate bibliographic information, including the article title, author information, annual volume, numbered issue, formal publication date, DOI, licensing information, and other essential publication metadata. Pagination or article identifiers should be reported consistently where applicable.

For articles released through continuous publication, volume and issue assignments must correspond to the applicable numbered issue. The publication date must reflect the actual formal release rather than the beginning or ending date of the issue period unless those dates genuinely coincide.

AMAR maintains consistency among the published article, journal website, OJS metadata, DOI-registration records, and relevant scholarly indexing and discovery services. Accurate publication metadata support citation, digital preservation, discoverability, scholarly accountability, and the traceability of the permanent academic record.

Where a genuine metadata or publication-record error is identified, the Editorial Office may initiate a transparent correction through the appropriate editorial and technical procedures. Corrections must preserve the integrity, traceability, and historical accuracy of the published scholarly record.

AMAR preserves the original scholarly publication records of its historical annual volumes, including Volume 1 (2023), Volume 2 (2024), Volume 3 (2025), and Volume 4 (2026). Each volume retains its established issue assignments and official bibliographic records as documented in the journal's archives.

Previously published volumes, numbered issues, article titles, author information, issue titles, publication dates, pagination, article identifiers, DOI records, licensing information, and other valid bibliographic metadata remain part of the journal's permanent scholarly record.

The continuous-publication framework applies prospectively from its stated commencement date and does not authorize retrospective renumbering, artificial publication-date changes, redistribution of previously published articles, relabeling of historical issues, or reconstruction of published scholarly records merely to conform to the current publication model.

Genuine bibliographic or metadata errors may be corrected transparently through appropriate editorial, publication-ethics, and technical procedures. Such corrections must preserve the continuity, authenticity, and traceability of the scholarly record rather than obscure or replace valid historical information.

AMAR maintains an online archive of its published annual volumes, numbered issues, and scholarly articles. Previously published issues remain accessible through the official journal archives, subject to applicable digital-preservation and website-access arrangements.

The journal archives preserve the official publication records of each annual volume and its numbered issues. The publication dates and bibliographic details displayed in the official archives remain authoritative for the corresponding historical publications.

Readers, authors, researchers, and indexing services should cite each article's final bibliographic information and DOI as displayed in the applicable Version of Record. Historical publication records must be interpreted according to their original issue assignments and actual publication dates.
