Configuring Analytics Reports for SAS Anti Money Laundering

[#1]

SAS Anti-Money Laundering provides out-of-the-box analytics reports. These reports leverage SAS Visual Analytics to produce and display the reports. The purpose of this post is to show you how to configure these reports on the Viya 4 platform.

You must execute three SAS jobs in SAS Job Execution Web Application to configure all the analytics reports. Typically, the URL to access SAS Job Execution includes the name of the deployment domain, and then SASJobExecution with an ending slash (i.e. http://server/SASJobExecution/)

After you’ve signed into SAS Job Execution as an administrator user, in the Content panel on the left, you’ll navigate to SAS Content, Products, SAS Anti-Money Laundering, and then Jobs. Under Jobs, you see a job for each of the analytics report categories, alert events, cases, and SARs.

Select any image to see a larger version.
Mobile users: To view the images, select the "Full" version at the bottom of the page.

It’s important to mention that data must be loaded into your CAS server in order to see the reports after you run these jobs.

For instance, to configure the alerts events analytics report, right click fcf_va_alerts_events_ETL, and select Submit job.

After the job runs successfully, you can verify the alerts events report was created by navigating to SAS Visual Analytics.

On the application bar, click the Show list of application icon, and under the Analytics Life Cycle section, right-click Explore and Visualize, and then Open link in new tab.

In Visual Analytics, navigate to SAS Content, Products, SAS Anti-Money Laundering, Management Reports, and then Alert Event Reports. Notice the four different reports.

If you click on the Active Alerts Aging reports, you’ll see something like the following:

You’ll repeat these steps for the fcf_va_case_ETL job and the fcf_va_SARs_ETL job. It’s important to mention that if you receive an error when running fcf_va_SARs_ETL job, it could be because you don’t have any SARs in the system. This is a bug, and a workaround is to create a manual case from the Homepage, and then from this case, create a SAR report.

After each job runs successfully, you can schedule the jobs in SAS Environment Manager to run at required intervals to refresh the report data at intervals that suit your business needs.
