# LP Wire Instruction Confirmation

## What's new?

You can now send a confirmation request to your LPs directly from Carta, allowing them to easily add or confirm their wire instructions prior to a distribution.

## What’s important about this change?

**We’ve made it easier to confirm the accuracy of LPs' wire instructions.**

Prior to a distribution, you can now send a request to an individual LP, a group of LPs, or all LPs in the distribution to update or confirm their wire instructions.

Once the request is sent, your LP will receive an email from Carta prompting them to update or confirm their wire instructions in their LP Portal.

Once updated or confirmed, you will see a new status of _Confirmed_ next to the LP’s name in the _Wire Instructions Status_ column in your _Partners_ tab as well as a complete [Audit Trail](https://releasenotes.carta.com/lp-wire-audit-trail-3Qtx28) of who added and confirmed the LPs wire instructions.

## What do I need to do?

After submitting a distribution request in Carta, click _Request Wire Instructions_. You can also initiate this request at any time by using the _Request Wire Instructions_ button on the Partners page.

Select the individual investors or group of investors you’d like to send a request to. Set a deadline and optionally customize the email message your LPs will receive. Review the contacts that will receive the notification and then click _Send_.

Your investors will receive an email asking them to add or confirm their wire instructions are current. After clicking _Review wire instructions_, they’ll be directed to their LP Portal where they can easily add or update in a few clicks.

You’ll now see an updated status in your _Partners_ tab of _Confirmed_ or _Pending_ (awaiting confirmation from your LP) with the date of confirmation or the date the request was sent. Giving you increased visibility into how current your LPs wire instructions are.
