SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This skill addresses the risk of processing unauthorized or sanctioned payments by providing a deterministic, read-only screening layer that validates transactions against regulatory watchlists and internal policy limits before human approval.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Sanctions Screening: Automatically cross-references beneficiary names and banks against OFAC SDN data to identify potential compliance hits.
  • Policy Validation: Enforces per-rail transaction limits and detects duplicate payment entries to prevent operational errors.
  • Use Case: A treasury operator needs to verify a batch of wire transfers; this skill screens the entire queue and flags any payments that violate sanctions or exceed defined thresholds, ensuring only safe transactions reach the human review stage.

Quick Start

Use the payment-screening skill to screen the payment queue against the provided sanctions list for the specific transaction ID WIRE-1007.

FAQPage Schema
How do I screen outbound ISO 20022 payment files against OFAC sanctions lists?

Screen outbound ISO 20022 payment files against OFAC sanctions lists by processing structured JSON payment queues and sanctions fixtures. This deterministic validation cross-references beneficiary names and banks to identify high-risk compliance hits before human release.

What is OFAC SDN screening for outbound payments and when do I need it?

OFAC SDN screening for outbound payments is a read-only compliance layer that validates transactions against regulatory watchlists. You need it before human approval to ensure beneficiary names and banks do not violate financial sanctions.

Can I use payment screening to enforce internal transaction limits and detect duplicates?

Yes, payment screening enforces per-rail transaction limits and detects duplicate payment entries. It operates within financial compliance workflows to prevent operational errors and ensure only safe transactions reach human review.

Does outbound sanctions screening require structured JSON input for payment queues?

Yes, outbound sanctions screening requires structured JSON input for both the payment queue and the sanctions fixture. This structured input enables deterministic validation against OFAC SDN data and internal policy limits.

What are the limitations of automated payment screening for treasury operations?

Automated payment screening acts as a read-only validation layer and does not execute transactions itself. It flags potential compliance hits, limit violations, and duplicates for a treasury operator, but final human approval is still required before release.

What's the best way to automate compliant outbound payment screening for wire transfers?

Automate compliant outbound payment screening by processing a batch of wire transfers through a deterministic validation layer. This approach screens the entire queue against OFAC SDN data and internal thresholds, flagging unauthorized or sanctioned payments before human review.
