FATAL

Official message text · Appendix H-1: UAD Compliance Rules — URAR, v1.5

Provide the file name and location of the image within the .zip file (e.g.,\\Images\SF1_Comp2.png). For assistance with this message, contact the appraisal software vendor.

Fatal — a single unresolved Fatal makes the entire submission come back NOT SUCCESSFUL (UCDP Hard Stop 401).

What triggers UAD1281

The published rule logic, verbatim:

If @ValuationUseType = "GrossRentMultiplierComparable" and ImageFileLocationIdentifier is not provided in a given instance of IMAGE

• Checked for every Gross Rent Multiplier Comparable in the report.
• Bound to MISMO data point ImageFileLocationIdentifier at ../VALUATION_ANALYSIS/PROPERTIES/PROPERTY/INSPECTIONS/INSPECTION/IMAGES/IMAGE/

How to fix it

This requirement applies to the XML data itself — the field is delivered in the submission file but is not printed on the form. Your form software populates it from the report data; correct the underlying entry, regenerate the package, and re-check.

Because this is a Fatal edit, do not submit until it is resolved — one Fatal bounces the whole package.

UAD1281 is in UADCheck's reference library; automated coverage for it is on the roadmap. The inspection already runs the full GSE schema, the package-integrity layer, and every auto-checkable compliance rule — each report states exactly what was covered.
