Compliance Policies
Arcliance allows you to configure policies that automate compliance decisions and enforce organizational rules. Policies are evaluated automatically during transaction processing.

- Tier-based restrictions (no license vs. license required)
- End-use restrictions
- Country-specific documentation requirements
Product Policies
Rules based on product classification:
- USML items require specific approval levels
- Controlled technology requires end-use statements
- License tracking and validation
- Quantity or value thresholds
Entity Policies
Rules for trading partners:
- New customer verification requirements
- Partner tier classifications
- Periodic re-verification schedules
- Documentation requirements
Transaction Policies
Rules for transaction processing:
- Value thresholds for approval levels
- Risk score thresholds
- Required documentation
- Dual-control requirements
Creating a Policy
- Navigate to Compliance Settings
Go to Compliance > Compliance Framework > Policies
- Click Create Policy
Select the policy type you want to create.
- Define Conditions
Set the criteria that trigger this policy (country, product, value, etc.).
- Set Actions
Define what happens when conditions are met: block, require approval, add documentation requirement, etc.
- Configure Notifications
Set who should be notified when the policy is triggered.
- Activate
Enable the policy. It will apply to all new transactions immediately.
Policy Priority
When multiple policies apply to a transaction, they are evaluated in order of severity. The most restrictive outcome applies:
- Block - Transaction cannot proceed
- Senior Approval - Requires executive sign-off
- Additional Review - Extra compliance check needed
- Standard Approval - Normal workflow applies
