How our customers use this

Many of our customers pay special attention to the application type, especially when manually creating an application or creating one via the mailbox. If an application is received by post, scanned, and sent to the mailbox in d.vinci, the application type "written" is still selected because the original application was submitted by post. This can be important for evaluations or to return documents after the application process is completed.
