Deferred Acceptance Decisions

How are people handling these decisions? We've started using EMS this year and have “Deferred” as a separate School Decision type. 99% of the time, a student is accepted (with decisions set and published accordingly), then decides to defer.

There's no “deferral” type for candidate decisions, so I'm thinking that in these cases we'd have a “Request deferral” candidate decision type categorized as “Accept” or “Acknowledge”, which we'd then use to update the candidate's decision accordingly.

Interested to hear what works for other schools. TIA!
