In addition to the submitter’s id in the item table, their name is recorded in the metadatavalue table in the provenance field (metadata_field_id = 28.)  I’m not sure when this information is created in the database, but it’s probably there if there’s a record in the workspaceitem table.  I’m also not sure if it shows up anywhere else.


Brian is right, the name will be in the provenance, but if that doesn't bother you then it won't matter -- as in, this won't affect the functionality at all.

 It would probably be better if you can cancel the first submission and re-submit it under the new eperson’s account.


I agree with Brian, if that's a possibility at all then cancelling the first submission and starting a new one is what I'd recommend. Or if you're on XMLUI and the original submitter isn't a DSpace admin, look into enabling the "assume login" functionality, log in as the original submitter and push through the submission -- see relevant snippet from dspace.cfg below:

# Determine if super administrators (those whom are in the Administrators group)
# can login as another user from the "edit eperson" page. This is usefull for
# debugging problems in a running dspace instance, especially in the workflow
# process. The default value is false, i.e. no one may assume the login of another user.
xmlui.user.assumelogin = true

cheers,
Andrea
