I did remove the author and maintainer fields. I have only the Authors@R field. 
 However it still throws that Note (in R 3.4.3)

Ignore it. R-3.4.3 doid not know about the ORCID feature, hence goves this note.

Hi,

I am trying to take advantage of the Authors@R: field in my description file 
for the psych package to add an ORCID address (as discussed in the R journal).

When I R CMD check with R development on my Mac, or with win builder it passes 
all checks. (R Under development (unstable) (2018-02-23 r74298)  )

But, when I test with current R on a Mac or at win builder it throws a note:

Author field differs from that derived from Authors@R
  Author:    'William Revelle [aut, cre] 
(<https://orcid.org/0000-0003-4880-9610>)'
  Authors@R: 'William Revelle [aut, cre] (0000-0003-4880-9610)’


Is there a way to fix this or should I just go ahead and submit to CRAN with a 
note saying that it works on R development but gives a note on R 3.4.3 ?

The offending line in the Description file seems to be

Authors@R:  person("William", "Revelle", role =c("aut","cre"), 
email="reve...@northwestern.edu", comment=c(ORCID  = "0000-0003-4880-9610") )

Thanks for any suggestions.

You can use ‘Authors@R’ only to fix this NOTE. According to "Writing R
Extensions":

"Both ‘Author’ and ‘Maintainer’ fields can be omitted if a suitable
‘Authors@R’ field is given. [...] The ‘Author’ and ‘Maintainer’ fields
are auto-generated from it if needed when building or installing."
