How to resolve a case

This documentation, including images, videos and text, is accurate as of Version 5.12 of Pascal.

We strive to keep our documentation up to date with each release to ensure it remains a reliable resource for our users. However, given the dynamic nature of our software development, there might be instances where changes introduced in subsequent versions are not immediately reflected in this documentation. We encourage users to refer to the latest release notes and to use the feedback mechanism for any discrepancies or requests for clarification.

After a case has been created, an overview of the case is given with all relevant information on the case. Specifications about the case can be changed, notes can be made regarding the case and found hits can be resolved.

Case overview page

On the case overview page, several cards are present:

Resolving hits

By pressing the Start resolving button in the resolving card you can start resolving hits in the case. Pascal has six different categories where hits can be found in: Sanctions, Enforcements, PEPs, Media and Other. Per source, a maximum of 100 hits will be presented during the initial screening. Sources will be greyed out when no hits in that source have been found for your case.

By resolving a hit, you determine if the hit is deemed relevant or irrelevant regarding the person or business you are searching for. Whether the hit is relevant or not will determine if a hit should be included with the tick button or excluded with the cross button.

A comment can also be attached to a hit when resolving, this comment can be seen by anyone opening the hit later on. In comments, you can mention another user. The other user will then receive a notification about the comment they are mentioned in. It is also possible to override the risk of a hit. You can override the initial risk of a hit by populating the Modify risk button to the desired risk.

It is also possible to resolve multiple hits at once by using the checkboxes on the left side of the hits, when multiple checkboxes are selected an action bar will appear at the bottom of the resolving panel giving you access to the resolve actions and the option to leave a comment as well.

If the policy Require comments for hits when resolving is active, hits can only be resolved with a provided comment. The include and exclude buttons are then replaced by a comment button in the resolve column of the table.

If the service Implicit feedback is turned on, the confidence of unresolved hits can change based on the already resolved hits in the active case. The implicit feedback is visualised by two arrows at the confidence value, while the initial confidence value is also still visible in the bar itself like before.

After the case is fully resolved, it is recommended to change the status of the case from In review to either Monitored or Archived.
