# Watchlist Business

This module screens business entities against global sanctions lists, Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) databases, and adverse media. It is a processing node and must be added to a Workflow or Flow after business data has been collected.

For an overview of this module and how it works, see [Watchlist Business](https://developer.incode.com/docs/business-watchlist).

{/ _This module being a processing node makes sense to me, but it isn't listed under the Processes section in the Workflow UI. It's at the end of the Modules section. TODO: Confirm if it's a processing node._ /}

| Setting                         | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
| ------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **_Business Name_**             | The name of the business to search. This field is mandatory. The value is pulled from data collected earlier in the Session or can be supplied directly via API.                                                                                                                                                                                                                 |
| **_Business Country_**          | The country or countries of operation used to filter search results. This field is mandatory. Filters apply to PEP entities and entities with at least one matching country value. Entities on sanctions lists appear in results regardless of the country filter. Entities with adverse media mentions only, or with no country assigned, are also not affected by this filter. |
| **_Configure Search Profile_**  | Uses a search profile defined in your provider's configuration to determine which watchlist types are searched. You can configure either a search profile or watchlist types, not both.                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| **_Configure Watchlist Types_** | Allows you to select one or more specific watchlist types to search. Options include _sanction_, _warning_, _fitness-probity_, _pep_, _pep-class-1_ through _pep-class-4_, and FATF-aligned adverse media categories. You can configure either a search profile or watchlist types, not both.                                                                                    |
| **_Fuzziness_**                 | Controls how closely search results must match the supplied business name. Ranges from _0.0_ (strict matching) to _1.0_ (loose matching). Default: 1.0.                                                                                                                                                                                                                          |
| **_Subscribe for updates_**     | Subscribes to ongoing updates for this search. When the search results are updated, Incode sends a notification to the webhook URL [configured](https://developer.incode.com/docs/configuration-webhooks-tab#configure-watchlist-update-webhook) in your organization's Dashboard settings.                                                                        |
