GTM Screening Overview

GTM's screening services can screen parties, transactions, territories, etc to ensure compliance for the purposes of international shipping compliance.

The following screening types are available in GTM:

• Stand alone screening (restricted party, territory, product) - called from a host application. This requires passing in bare bones screening related information into GTM and getting back a pass/fail response.
• Trade Transaction screening - this involves sending to or creating within GTM a complete order or shipment trade transaction. All screening is then performed against the trade transaction. Results are persisted against the trade transaction.

Stand-alone Screening

Stand alone screening is used to compare parties and jurisdictions against lists of known restricted parties and sanctioned territories. There are groups of processes to follow:

1. Define parties and jurisdictions.
2. Define rules including rule groups, rule sets, languages, compliance algorithms, control categories, codes, and types (including user-defined categories and code values), territories and territory qualifiers, and service parameters and preferences.
3. Screen against a list of restricted parties, sanctioned territories, or your own rules.

Trade Transaction Screening

Trade transaction screening can be run against OTM transactions and integrated data. Following are the groups of processes to follow:

1. Download and process integrated data, or prepare OTM transactions. Update product classifications and detect invalid product classifications.
2. Define rules including rule groups, rule sets, languages, compliance algorithms, control categories, codes, and types (including user-defined categories, code values), territories and territory qualifiers, registrations (including licenses),and service parameters and preferences.
3. Define product classification codes, categories, types, groups, and hierarchies.
4. Screen the transactions.
