Submission type selection

Wrong submission type 

You can change submission type manually in case the program has identified submission type incorrectly. For example, this can happen if a payer keeps all fields for two submission types in an Excel file. Technically, this is correct but the tool might detect not the type you expect. Currently, ABM supports only Encounter.Submission type, so this scenario is not applicable at the moment and can be used for future references.
