UAT release highlights: UAD 3.6 enhancements, review decision fixes, and AppraisalPort updates
The UAT release, scheduled for October 6, 2026, includes several key updates. Below are the details of what’s included in this release and how it supports our ongoing efforts to improve system performance and user experience. Please subscribe to receive notifications when new product news and release notes are posted.
Platform enhancements
None at this time.
Platform enhancements only visible with UAD 3.6 enabled
Rejected Investor Submission status for failed investor submission [APPMOD-12212]
When submission to Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae fails, the system will automatically retry multiple times. Once the maximum automatic submission retries have expired, we will now mark the submission with a “Rejected” sub status badge in the Investor Submission tab and place a note in the history log. This alerts the user that the Investor Submission failed and the submission needs to be attempted manually at a later time.
Security improvements
We are continuing regular maintenance activities to support system security, protect user data, and ensure reliable performance.
Issue resolutions
Collateral Investigate “Approved with Conditions” review decision mapping [APPMOD-12175]
We fixed an issue where orders with a Collateral Investigate reviewer decision of “Approved with Conditions” did not map to the correct CMS status. The system now recognizes and processes all review decision reasons for orders in the Collateral Investigate workflow.
AppraisalPort Updates
Identifying Legacy orders in appraiser’s new assignment email alerts [APPMOD-12140]
AppraisalPort users subscribed to receive email alerts upon new order assignment are now better able to differentiate between legacy and UAD 3.6 orders. The “Service” field has been renamed “Product”, and if the order is for a legacy appraisal form, we will now specify "(Legacy Form)" after the product name.
Coming soon
