Denied Party Screening
Export Management utilizes the ONESOURCE Denied Party Screening (DPS) solution and displays screening results by party within each
Party
sub-tab. The parties to be screened are determined and configured during implementation and will vary by client. There are several DPS status messages that may appear:Status massages | Description |
|---|---|
This party is not screened as part of Export Management | Party is not configured to be screened. |
Clear | Party has no hits/blocks after being screened. |
Block | Party has hits/blocks after being screened. See Blocked Example. |
Overridden | Party once had hits/blocks after being screened, but a user cleared the party. See Overwrite Process |

The

Override Process
If an entity in the denial lists has an effective date greater than the override date; the system will block the party, forcing you to revalidate the override. Two different overrides can be performed within the Export Management system:
Override process | Description |
|---|---|
Shipment | Clears party for one specific shipment. If the user tries to ship to this party again, the party will show as Blocked . |
Global | Clears party at the company level. If you try to ship to this party again, the party will show as Overridden . No further shipments will be blocked. |
To perform an override.
- ClickShipmentorGlobalnext toType.ChoosingShipmentwill only override the block for the current shipment.ChoosingGlobalwill override the block at the entity level and will override all future shipments or screenings.
importantIf any field on the party is altered within the grid, a global override will only override the current shipment because the data does not match. - You can choose an option in theReasondropdown and enter a reason for the override in theNotesfield.

- ClickSubmit Override. Every override requires a reason in theNotesfield.
After an override is successfully completed, the DPS Status changes to
Overridden
. To view the override details, click the Overridden link to open the DPS Management
screen with the party pre-selected. To view the override notes, click View Notes & Documents
.Entity Type
If you have the advanced engine enabled, you can have a more accurate screening on export shipments by specifying the type of entity of a company or party. That will reduce false positives that can be timely to review and ensure you are not shipping to a true blocked or sanctioned entity.
You can specify the type of entity as:
- Organization
- Individual
- Unspecified
In the
Parties
tab.- Select the box of the corresponding entity type.

- ClickSaveon the top left of the screen.
