Abstract
The purpose of this research was to present the main distinguishing features among the 100 journals in the area of management available at the Scientific Journals Electronic Library (SPELL). The research has a quantitative and qualitative approach, having collected the data through a survey on the journals site, followed by a filtering in about 200 parameters, and the analysis of each periodical, based on Qualis/Capes 2013-2016 classification and with discriminant analyses. The results allowed to identify 25 distinctive characteristics that characterize each stratum Qualis/Capes and also provided a "map of steps" to follow to achieve each of the A2, B1, B2 and B3 classifications in the scientific editorial setting of the Management, Accounting and Tourism Areas. It should be emphasized that the journals of the different strata differ as to the aspects aimed at stimulating quality, techniques for attracting impact research and indexing mechanisms, elements that contribute to the development of the actors involved in the editorial process. To enrich the findings, it is suggested as future researches, besides applying the model presented here in the next classification Qualis/Capes 2017-2020, verifying the assertiveness of the discriminant analysis, and also applying the 25 variables presented in this study in a new research with international journals classified as A1 to identify the characteristics of this group, considering the lack of this stratum in national journals in the Management, Accounting and Tourism Areas.

Summary
Qualis is a parameter of analysis performed by the Coordination of Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES), whose purpose is to evaluate the quality of intellectual production of national graduate projects and the repercussion of their respective periodicals. Frigeri and Monteiro (2012) sought to analyze how Qualis and its criteria are experienced in the editorial routine of scientific journals in the area of Education, while Soares and Casa Nova (2016) analyzed how much the classification in strata of the Brazilian accounting journals reflects in the impact of the surveys carried out by them This relevant research is judged because, when considering the practices of other journals, it is possible to provide existing journals with an understanding of the similarities and dissimilarities that make up the editorial groups, in addition to providing the opportunity to include specificities that meet the regional characteristics of studies and research in management. The final considerations are presented with a brief reflection on the Brazilian scientific editorial context in Management, Accounting and Tourism
