## Quick Reference

- Check every Questionnaire page, the Draw Sheet and the photos.
- Click Submit Report at the top right of the job.
- The status changes and the lender is notified in the Ordering Engine.
- To attach a PDF to the job, use the upload icon in the Report block.

## Before You Start

- Every required Questionnaire field is answered and the Draw Sheet is saved.
- The photos that prove each percentage are uploaded and tagged.

## Step 1: Review Everything First

**A quick check before you submit.** Open each Questionnaire page and confirm the Required count is cleared. Check the Draw Sheet figures against your photos. An incomplete submission delays the draw and can mean a second site visit.

## Step 2: Click Submit Report

**Generate and send the report.** Click Submit Report at the top right of the job. Choose the report options, generate the report, check the preview and click Submit Report again. The status changes and the lender is notified in the Ordering Engine.

**The lender approves or rejects.** The lender reviews the report in the Ordering Engine and approves or rejects it. A rejection sets the status to Lender Rejected; see Reopening an Inspection After a Rejection for what to do next.

## Step 3: Attach a PDF to the Job

## Tips

**DO**
- Review the Questionnaire, Draw Sheet and photos before you click Submit Report.
- Submit the same day as the visit.
- Read the rejection reason before you fix and resubmit.

**WATCH FOR**
- Submit Report is greyed out while the status is Lender Rejected.
- Upload PDF takes files up to 10 MB.
- A submitted report can be rejected; keep your photos until the draw is approved.

## Troubleshooting

**Q: Submit Report is greyed out.**
A: The status is Lender Rejected or the job is not In Progress. Click the status badge, choose In Progress and click Save.

**Q: The lender rejected my report.**
A: Set the status back to In Progress, fix what the lender flagged and submit again. The guide Reopening an Inspection After a Rejection walks through it.

**Q: My PDF is too large.**
A: Upload PDF takes files up to 10 MB. Reduce the file size and try again.
