Important
This implementation is part of a set of features and fixes developed within the context of a project for the TGDK academic journal, with the goal of customizing Janeway to meet the journal's specific needs, which may also be extended to other contexts.
Problem / Objective
The current decision panel provides essential information to help editors make final decisions on articles (accept, reject, or request revisions). However, the information displayed is aggregated across all review rounds, which may not always accurately represent the article's current status.
This creates confusion when previous review rounds have significant changes that are no longer relevant to the current state of the article. The decision panel does not sufficiently balance historical recommendations and results with the current review context.
Solution
The proposed solution is to introduce tabs at the top of the panel that allow editors to switch between different review rounds. These tabs will organize the information displayed below them, ensuring it aligns with the selected review round.
This solution maintains consistency with the current functionality of decision-making actions (accept, reject, request revisions) while adding flexibility and accuracy in displaying review data.
