Before using AUS in ARIVE, make sure that your DU and/or LPA credentials are entered in either your Company Settings (for company-wide use) or your User Settings.

See: Entering your Personal Credit and AUS Credentials, and Entering Credit and AUS Credentials for Company Use

ARIVE integrates directly with Fannie Mae Desktop Originator/Desktop Underwriter (DO/DU) and Freddie Mac Loan Product Advisor/Loan Prospector (LPA/LP) to allow you to run AUS in ARIVE.

To run AUS in ARIVE, you must have ordered or reissued credit on the loan file, and you must have priced the loan and applied a product.

To run AUS in a loan file, go to the Dual AUS tab of the loan file. You can click Run DO to run Desktop Originator, Run LPA to run Loan Product Advisor, or Run One-Click AUS to run both.

See: AUS Troubleshooting and FAQ for help with DO and LPA errors, and frequently asked questions.

Can I run AUS with a soft credit pull?

Yes, but not all soft credit pulls are acceptable to run AUS.

ARIVE has no control of whether your credit vendor's soft pull will be accepted for an AUS run. Some users have reported they have been able to run AUS successfully with a soft credit pull, and ARIVE supports that, but nothing in the LOS prohibits (or permits) the use of a soft pull report to run AUS.

If you attempt to run AUS with a soft credit pull and are unable to, you will need to contact your credit vendor to further investigate.
