#### How to Perform a Search Request in the AML Scan Feature:

* From the sidebar menu, click on `AML Scan` and select `Search Page.`
* At the top of the search form, select whether you want to search for an `Individual` or an `Organization`.
* Fill in the Search Fields:\
  \
  **Full Name:** Enter the full name of the individual or the organization. \
  **Search by Name, by Document or by Identity:** You can choose whether to search by full name or an alias. \
  **Birth Year or Year Range:** If applicable, enter the birth year or a range of years for a more specific match. \
  **Match Rate:** Define the minimum percentage match rate that the search result should meet (e.g., 80%). Only results that meet or exceed this threshold will be returned.\
  **Country:** Select the country associated with the individual or organization to narrow down the search.&#x20;
* If you want a more thorough search that checks additional databases, tick the `Deep Search` checkbox.
* Click the `Scan` button to start the search request. The system will scan through PEP, Sanctions, Watchlists, and adverse media databases for any potential matches.
* Once the scan is complete, review the results on the same page or on the `Scan Results` page to assess potential matches and take further action if needed:&#x20;
