Set Up Supplier Sanction List Screening in WSS

Set Up Supplier Sanction List Screening in WSS

Sign up for the International Trade Administration’s (ITA) Data Services Platform and subscribe to the Consolidated Screening List API.
When you create or change the names of suppliers, you can compare supplier information with the Consolidated Screening List from the ITA. This screening helps you to:
  • Comply with federal law.
  • Detect and mitigate potential risk to your organization.

    Option Description
    API Key
    The API key that you retrieved from the ITA Data Services Platform.
    Minimum Name Score Threshold
    A value of 100 returns only names that exactly match the characters that you entered as the name of the supplier. A value of 50 returns all names that are 50% similar based upon the matching logic of the search tool. By lowering the threshold, you get a broader result set.
Workday Strategic Sourcing (WSS) pages the name of a supplier against the sanction list when you:
  • Add a new supplier.
  • Edit the existing name of a supplier.
  • Manually rerun the screening.
Sanction list screening results display in the Verifications section on the profile of a supplier. When a supplier potentially or exactly matches a sanctioned entity, Strategic Sourcing:
  • Adds a message on the supplier profile.
  • Sends a global notification the sourcing manager who screened the supplier.
  • Sends the sourcing manager who screened the supplier an email.
