Notes:

  • Report includes only REF2 outputs in the following submission states:

    • Accepted

    • Attributed

    • Not attributable

  • Date range selection:

    • The report only captures the most recent modification (merge / split).   So, if you select a date range of 1 May 2020 - 15 May 2020, and the publication was modified on 12 May and 17 May, the output will not be listed as the most recent modification (17 May) was outwith the selected date range.

  • There may be multiple REF2s associated with a single publication - so both affected REF2s would be listed (depending on submission state)

  • Where the report is notifying about a new record being created in a publication, this is any new record - not just those where a material difference has been made to the REF2

  • This report may not immediately reflect recent changes to data
