Clearing House

One option availabe on our Automated Batch Screening (ABS) product is a Clearing House system. If you have elected to use this system, the reports that you get will have a column with a link to "clear" the match. Clearing a match will tell the system that you have decided that the potential match between your party and one or more DPL entries is not a valid match, and you don't want to see that match in future reports. Clicking on the link will take you to a page like this:



If you have previously cleared a match, the system will re-enter the name you used last time. This is a way that we can keep track of who did the clearance in case there is an audit. After providing your name, you choose the "clear" button and the match is marked in our system to be not included in future reports. The match clearance goes off of:

1. The EXACT name of your party
2. The IDs of our DPL entries

What this means is if you have the party come back up with a slightly different name, or if we made additions or updates to the DPL that match, they will be displayed on your report, but obviously you can then clear them as well.
