Showing paper match details
If Turnitin finds matching text from a paper within your organization's private repository, this option will allow users to view the available details of this match.
- Select
Settings from the sidebar. - From the Paper Match Details heading, choose the radio button that fits with your organization.
- Selecting Show paper match details will enable it for all users in your organization.
- Don't show paper match details is the default setting.
- Use the Save button to confirm any changes you've made.
How does it work?
User A uploads a document. It goes into your organization's private repository. One year later, User B uploads a document. Turnitin scans this submission and finds that 20% of the text on User B's submission is identical to User A's submission.
When Show paper match details is enabled, any matches will appear in the source overview panel as 'Submitted works'. By default the source will be open on the Source view. This shows an excerpt of the submission with the matching text highlighted. If available, the Details view will show the following information:
- The name of the user who submitted the manuscript
- The date the file was uploaded
- The manuscript title
Select View Full Text to see the entire submission with the matching text highlighted.
