| description | Educational map of transaction-centric compliance screening—transfer as the atomic unit, deposit vs withdrawal direction, single and CSV import, transaction list and detail views, per-transfer screening, rescreen, and STR-style exports. Use when the user asks how monitoring UIs treat tx hashes, directions, or regulatory reporting hooks—not for legal filing advice or evading reporting. |

Transaction screening workflow (concepts)
Educational reference only. Limits (batch sizes, engines, STR formats) change by product and jurisdiction—confirm in phalcon-compliance-documentation and your compliance program. Pair with address-screening-workflow-concepts (wallet inventory) and risk-exposure-screening-concepts (how direction affects participant and flow rules).
Unit of analysis
- The smallest screening unit is often a single transfer (asset movement from from → to within a tx).
- One transaction (one hash) may contain many transfers. Products may let you screen each transfer, subset, or roll up to transaction-level risk—behavior varies by vendor.
Direction (deposit vs withdrawal)
Setting Deposit vs Withdrawal steers which rules and which side of the flow the engines emphasize:
| Direction | Typical screening focus |
|---|
| Deposit | Inflow to the platform/customer relationship—provenance of funds arriving. |
| Withdrawal | Outflow and destination—where funds leave toward. |
Common product behavior (verify in docs):
- Rules can be scoped to one direction (for example deposit-only policies do not run on withdrawal-labeled items).
- If no direction is set, some products default to running both deposit- and withdrawal-oriented passes to reduce misconfiguration.
- Correct direction is used to tune rules and reduce false positives—it is an operational control, not a legal classification.
This aligns with participant/flow screening notes in risk-exposure-screening-concepts.
