Missing mandate_type for Mandate

[adammitchelldev]

The API has a mandate_type but this does not exist in the Java client (Mandate.java).

Hi @adammitchelldev thanks for letting us know. I've checked and this is actually a bug in our documentation - the mandate_type field is not part of our public API.

I'll get the documentation corrected.

Hi @jamiecobbett , thanks for your response. Our real intention is to differentiate a IBP one-off payment from a DD payment. We thought we could make use of the mandate_type in the corresponding mandates for IBP and DD. If this field is not exposed via Java API, could you please let us know a way to differentiate these payments?

Currently you'd have to check the scheme value and check it against a hardcoded list of schemes that are in one category or the other. I'll see if we can add mandate_type to the public API.
