Editing DataCite DOI (section)

==Versioning==
When creating a new version of an eprint via the '''New version''' button in the '''Actions''' tab, any existing DOI value will be copied across to the new version of the eprint.

The '''DataCite DOI Manager''' will highlight when a Current DOI redirects to an earlier version of an eprint, and will present two options when the later version is in the live archive (i.e. has a page a DOI can successfully redirect to).

# '''Update Metadata & URL''' – this will update the current DataCite record to redirect to the new version of this eprint
# '''Reserve DOI''' and '''Mint DOI''' – the regular options available when the Available DOI for a record has not yet been reserved or registered on DataCite.

[[File:Update metadata and url.jpg|600px|thumb|center|This eprint is a later version of an existing eprint and has inherited a DOI. The metadata and URL associated with this DOI can be updated to redirect to the newer record.]]

DOIs registered for eprints which are earlier or later versions of other eprints, will use DataCite’s “HasVersion” and “IsVersionOf” properties to link forwards and backwards as appropriate.
