Requesting Lien Waivers

Note: You may need to manually choose to include Lien Waiver Only (LW Sub) and Manual (Manual Sub) Sub-Tiers in a period if you turned off the Include all lien waiver only and manual sub-tiers in draw if their on-system parent is included in a draw project setting.

See Draw Settings for information on this and several other draw-related project settings.

To request a lien waiver from the Manage Lien Waivers page:

Navigate to the Manage Lien Waivers Page
The system generates the Manage Lien Waivers task when at least one lien waiver needs to be approved.
- Tasks
  - Choose Manage Lien Waiver - Draw <#> (Sub-Tier: <Sub-Tier name>) from the Tasks icon drop-down at the top of the page.
  - Use the Manage Lien Waiver - Draw <#> (Sub-Tier: <Sub-Tier name>) link on the Tasks page.
- Home Pages
  - From the Compliance section at the top of the Tasks tab, select the Manage Lien Waivers - <Draw> - <Organization Name> link. The Compliance section will include a link for each organization with a current lien waiver tracking hold. Select a link to navigate to the Manage Lien Waivers page for the draw in which the Sub-Tier is out of lien waiver compliance.
  - From the Payment/Lien Waivers section of the Draw Home page, use the Draw <#> (<Sub-Tier: Sub-Tier Name>) link.
- Menus
  From the Compliance Menu at the top of the Project Home or Draw Home pages, choose Manage Lien Waivers.
From the Request LW (Request Lien Waiver) column, select an organization. There is a column for both conditional and unconditional lien waivers.
Either:
- Use check boxes in each row to select a lien waiver from the organization listed in the row.
- Use the Select All check box under the Request LW column heading to request a lien waiver from all applicable Sub-Tiers and Subcontractors.
  Note: You can request lien waivers for both LW Subs and Subcontractors who may not have submitted this documentation previously because they were paid by manual check or had a negative invoice.
Select the Save Changes button.
- A Success! Your data was saved message appears at the top of the page.
- The word Requested displays in the View Lien Waiver column.
- The Prime Subcontractor receives an email when a Sub-Tier organization signs a lien waiver.
- A Manage Lien Waivers for Draw link displays on the Subcontractor's Tasks and Project Home pages.
- The Prime Subcontractor can approve, reject, comment on, or forward the lien waiver.
