When they notify you that your submitted QSOs have been granted DXCC Award Credit, you'd direct DXKeeper to "Verify" your submission to reflect the granting of DXCC award credit by change each 'S' in a "QSL Rcvd" and "LoTW QSL Rcvd" item to 'V'.

Instead of waiting until the DXCC desk finishes processing the application you've already submitted to complete step 2 and then direct DXKeeper to generate a new submission, the request to make it possible to manually generate a second application that includes then new LoTW confirmation. This can be done by defining a user-defined item called "Pending", and setting it to 'C' in each of those QSOs newly confirmed by QSL card, and to 'L' in each of those QSOs newly confirmed by LoTW.

Thanks for the detailed explanation.? Having to do all that makes my
head hurt.? I'll pass and stay with the way I've been doing it.
