Denied Party Screening
Import Management utilizes the ONESOURCE Denied Party Screening (DPS) solution and displays screening results, by party, within each
Party
sub-tab. Reviewing DPS screening results of supply chain partners early and subsequently throughout the import process allows companies to minimize risk from penalties and possible regulatory delays.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 messages | Description |
|---|---|
This party is not screened as part of Import Management | The party is not configured to be screened. |
Clear | The party has no hits/blocks after being screened. |
Block | The party has hits/blocks after being screened. See Blocked Example . |
Overridden | The party once had hits/blocks after being screened but a user cleared the party. See Overwrite Process. |

Override Process
If an entity in the denial lists has an effective date greater than the override date, the system blocks the party, forcing the user to revalidate the override. Two different overrides can be performed within the Import Management system:
Overrides | Description |
|---|---|
Shipment | A Shipment override will clear a party for one specific shipment. If the user tries to ship to this party again, the party will appear as Blocked. |
Global | A Global override will clear the party at the company level. If the user tries to ship to this party again, the party will show as overridden and will not block further shipments. |
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
