Entity Screening Rules and Rule Sets now live ๐
We’re excited to unveil powerful new capabilities for Entity Screening, including fully integrated rule sets, rules and a dedicated Screening Tab to enhance how Sanctions, Adverse Media, and PEP checks are managed and actioned. These updates streamline screening logic, automate actions, and provide a more transparent, intuitive user experience.
Rule Sets: Define What, Who, and When
Rule Sets allow users to organize and schedule the screening logic:
- What is run: Select the enrichment sources by provider and configuration
When it is run: Choose from flexible scheduling intervals:
- Daily
- Weekly
- Monthly
- Annually
- Or when the merchant is first created
- Against whom: Use Entity API filters to run different configurations for specific segments (e.g., countries)
This framework enables precise and scalable control over screening operations solving for initial and ongoing screenings.
Rules: Define What to Do When Results Are Found
Rules let users configure automated actions to take when an entity matches results from a selected enrichment source. Available actions include:
- Create an Alert
- Create a Case
- Change the Screening Status
- Update the Entity Status
- Apply Weight to the Screening Score
This allows teams to automate response workflows and reduce manual intervention, enabling faster and more consistent decision-making.
Screening Tab for Entity Screening
Overview
We are excited to announce the release of the Screening Tab within the Entity Screening product. This marks a significant improvement in how screening data is displayed, understood, and actioned for entities. Users can now navigate to the new Screening tab when viewing a merchant to access a structured, transparent view of all screening incidents and outcomes.
Key Enhancements
Centralized Screening Insights
All screening alerts and cases - past and present - are now available in one consolidated location, organized by the type of screening performed, such as sanctions or adverse media.
For each category, users can:
- View the full history of alerts and cases generated.
- See the last run date for each screening type.
Alert and Case Lifecycle Management
Each alert provides direct access to critical functionality:
- Drill into the alert for deeper context and data.
- Withdraw, escalate to a case, or resolve a case as a true or false positive.
- Visualize both open and closed incidents tied to that entity.
Improved Usability Over Beta Version
The new experience significantly improves on the prior beta version:
- Eliminates confusing columns (such as ambiguous "outcome" labels).
- Introduces the clear concept of screening alerts - making it easier to triage and take action.
- Ensures decisions are made only after reviewing full match details, unlike the beta which allowed blind pass/fail decisions.
By organizing data by screening type and showing a complete decision and results history, this version provides a more intuitive and actionable workflow for compliance and risk teams.
This release lays the foundation for transparent end to end screening operations. Stay tuned for more enhancements as we continue to evolve the platform to meet your growing compliance needs. 🔍⚙️
