Descartes Visual Compliance's automated workflow helps manage the necessary actions that follow a potential match. If necessary, Descartes Visual Compliance helps facilitate consulting with other members of the compliance team, by providing built-in mechanisms to relay organized, detailed information to the right people to help them efficiently escalate or clear the match and record the rationale behind their decisions.

To help provide detailed proof of due diligence, Descartes Visual Compliance automatically documents the who, when, what and why of screening activities for internal use or for an official audit, allowing users to easily demonstrate their compliance activities.
