6 Real-Time Screening

There are two ways to perform screening in the Customer Screening application: Real-Time Screening and batch screening.

Real-Time Screening is the screening of individuals and entities that occur when you enter data in the Real-Time Screening page and click Scan (Analyst & Supervisor) and Scan & Investigate (Analyst & Supervisor) to see the screening results and details of Alert generation or Case creation. You can also view the Alert details or Case details from screening results. For more information, see File Upload. To enable scan & Investigate, map the role Scan & Investigate to CSRTGRP group.

Batch Screening is the screening of individuals and entities that occur when you run the Batch Screening job. Before you run the job, you must first configure the Enterprise Data Quality (Director) details and then prepare and analyze the customer screening and external entity data in the Financial Crime Data Model (FCDM). For more information, see Running the Batch Screening Job.

The following image shows the different components involved during the Real-time screening process:

After you provide data on the Real-Time Screening page, a REST call is made to the individual or entity being screened in the real-time screening user interface. The call is then routed to the Enterprise Data Quality (EDQ) system through the Process Modelling Framework (PMF) application. The information is then matched against the watch list data. Data is also persisted as external entities in the FCT_RTSCR_REQUEST table.

If a match is found, the matches are aggregated. The aggregated matches are used to create alerts and cases for external entities in Financial Crime Data Model (FCDM) and Analytical Application Infrastructure (AAI) and generate responses in PMF. The alerts or cases are displayed in the Case Summary page in L1 Alert Management or Enterprise Case Management (ECM) for investigation.

Note:

  • Real-time screening can be performed only when the realtime screening job in EDQ is running.
  • To cancel the real-time screening process, select Shutdown web services in the Cancel Individual Realtime Screening web services dialog box.
  • The Real-time access group must only be mapped to the case supervisor or the case analyst users and must not be mapped to the admin user.
