The KDR copper plate which gives first teertham in all Vishnu temples to a venkata tatarya makes it clear that he was considered as foremost among SVs by KDR. And this tatarya was considered as the person who shall adjudicate on all SV matters.
In amukramalyada 6.66, he calls Mamuni, Desika and Adivan Satakopan as avataras of Ramanuja. Krishnamachariar came out with a book by someone who questioned the validity of Adivan Satakopan getting sanyasa from nrsimha. But KDR mentions the same story as well.
