Automatic update for forthcoming article with the published date
Hi, would it be possible to have a job that automatically update the asset information once the journal article is published either by using the metadata from the DOI or from WOS Identifier? For example, to add the published date alonside the first online date, and fill in the volume and issue, as well as the pages number?
Updating the forthcoming manually is quite tedious, and I believe that it wouldn't be too difficult to automate it, as the information exists in the DOI's metadata (publish print / publish online date part)
Thanks!

Going from "online ahead of print" to published necessitates a few metadata changes. I definitely agree, we'd need to be able to verify those updates. I like the idea of a monthly report with the ability to process the metadata update to the record the way we approve and dedupe authors - Either process the update as is or make a manual update. I wonder if that would work with assets.

I agree this is a great idea! Do you see this as happening in the background, and thus we wouldn't be aware that the update to the record has occured? I find it useful to do a quick check of the record first, to ensure all the metadata is correct and nothing was missed first time around. So for that It would be great to be able to run a monthly report or similar, if we wanted to, to glance at those records that have been automatically updated that month.
