Gary, In the DSpace 1.5 XMLUI, the entire "configurable" submission process is controlled by the Cocoon flowscript (javascript) in:
[dspace-src]/dspace-xmlui/dspace-xmlui-api/src/main/resources/Submission/submission.js The final step that is processed within any configurable Submission process (JSPUI or XMLUI) is the "Complete" step. In particular, the processing class at: org.dspace.submit.step.CompleteStep Essentially, there are two steps which must *always* exist to allow DSpace to function properly: SelectCollectionStep and CompleteStep. These two steps are auto-loaded when your /config/item-submission.xml configuration file is read by org.dspace.app.util.SubmissionConfigReader That's all a bit of background...now to your actual question. There are two routes to adding this ID to your "umrestricted" table after an item has been submitted: (1) Change the default CompleteStep to add this ID. The disadvantage here is that the ID will be added *BEFORE* any workflow approval takes place (assuming you have collections which may have approval workflows). So, there's still a chance the item may not be approved, and never make it into "archived" state in DSpace. (2) Change the org.dspace.content.InstallItem class to add this ID. This 'InstallItem' class is what is called on completion of the workflow approval process (if one exists). It's role is to actually "install" an item into DSpace (and assign the official handle, etc). This is where I'd recommend you add your embargo code, as it is only called once an item is fully "archived" within DSpace, and it is called once for *every* item coming into DSpace.
