  1. 01Open the Dwelling Exterior › Mechanical System Details › Core Heating System Below Grade area of the URAR and find Core Heating System Below Grade.
  2. 02Check the condition that triggers UAD1098: ImprovementType = "Dwelling" and HeatingSystemType <> "None", and CoreHeatingSystemBelowGradeIndicator is not provided in SYSTEM_DETAIL for a given instance of IMPROVEMENT.
  3. 03Correct the missing, invalid, duplicate, or inconsistent value before submitting to UCDP.
  4. 04Use the official Single-family (SF1) sample value on this page as a reference pattern, then re-run validation.

This fix guidance is derived from the published rule message, trigger logic, report location, field definition, and official sample data available for this rule.
