The best way for you is probably to declare the Doi field as a Remote URL field in the Default Fields preferences. If you check automatic conversion there (which is the default), this will also add an URL item in the files pane (at least when the publication doesn't yet have any items there, otherwise you'll have to run the conversion by hand).
