CASE 01Reviewers cannot be used yet
When: Peer Review Pairing Generator has no usable reviewers, or an entry does not follow the format shown by that field.
Why: The tool needs valid reviewers, authors or submissions, reviews per item, and reviews per reviewer to produce the peer review coverage.
Try: In Peer Review Pairing Generator, add one reviewer per line; then assign peer reviews again.
CASE 02Review required for peer review coverage
When: Only exact reviewer-name matches prevent self-review; other conflicts require organizer review.
Why: The tool evaluates reviewers, authors or submissions, reviews per item, and reviews per reviewer, but it cannot assess context outside those controls.
Try: Check the peer review coverage against this additional limit: the tool does not exchange files or collect feedback. Revise the visible settings in Peer Review Pairing Generator when needed.
