# AML Screening from Identity Verifications

> Run AML checks and add subjects to monitoring directly from completed KYC identity verifications in the iDenfy dashboard — manually or automatically.

AML checks and monitoring can be linked to a specific KYC identity verification, associating the screening result with the subject who completed the verification. There are three ways to do this.

***

## Automatic Checks for All Verifications

You can configure iDenfy to run an AML check automatically for every completed identity verification, without any manual action.

Enable this in [AML & Fraud Prevention settings](/guides/dashboard/settings/aml-fraud-prevention#anti-money-laundering-aml). Once active, PEP, Sanctions, and Adverse Media checks run for all identity verifications as part of the verification flow.

***

## From the Verification Page

To run a check or add a subject to monitoring from a specific verification:

1. Open the identity verification
2. Click **View AML** in the toolbar at the bottom of the page
3. Select one of the two options from the dropdown:
   * **Check AML** — runs a one-time AML check using the subject's details from the verification
   * **Add to monitoring** — opens the monitoring creation form pre-filled with the subject's name, nationality, and date of birth

***

## From the AML Check Window Using Scan Ref

To associate an AML check with a verification using its reference ID:

1. Copy the **scanRef** from the identity verification
2. Navigate to **AML Verifications** → **AML Check**
3. Click **Check AML** in the top right corner
4. In the pop-up, select **Verification**
5. Paste the scanRef into the **Verification scan ref** field
6. Choose what to screen for: **PEPs & Sanctions**, **Adverse media**, or both
