The process of communicating with the DataCite system an can take up to a few minutes. In order to check a DOI for an object, the editor should go to its details panel in the Editor Application. That panel is illustrated in the image below. The place in which the current state status is displayed is circled. Next to the status, there is the DOI generated for the object.
