Compliance Controls

Automated checks that ensure export compliance

What Are Compliance Controls?

Compliance controls are automated checks that run during transaction processing. They evaluate transactions against regulatory requirements and organizational policies, flagging issues before they become violations.

Built-in Controls

Checks all parties against restricted lists. Blocks transactions with confirmed matches. Cannot be disabled.

Country Embargo Check

Verifies required licenses are on file and not expired. Tracks license usage against authorized quantities and values.

Classification Check

Control Results

Each transaction shows control results in the compliance panel:

  • PASS - Control check passed
  • FAIL - Control check failed, action required
  • WARN - Warning condition, review recommended
  • N/A - Control not applicable to this transaction

Configuring Controls

Administrators can configure control behavior in Compliance > Compliance Framework:

  • Enable or disable optional controls
  • Adjust severity levels for organizational needs
  • Configure exceptions for specific scenarios
  • Set notification preferences

Note: Critical controls (denied party, embargo) cannot be disabled as they are required by law.
