Currently this integration enables users to complete UK Individual AML checks within Plannr. International and business checks, plus all other SmartSearch functionality, can be completed via their dashboard only. Keep your eyes peeled for future enhancements to the Plannr X SmartSearch integration!
Furthermore, the system includes an automated monitoring feature which enrolls individuals for ongoing monitoring after an AML check is conducted. This ensures continuous compliance and updates without requiring manual intervention. Additionally, it is important to note specific limitations: SmartSearch does not support background checks for business entities (e.g., companies or organizational contacts) or international individuals (non-UK residents).
The Addons store is the place to find extra features you can add to your Plannr site.
Head to Settings then select the Addons tile to find all the available integrations.
From here you will be able to see the Addons available to you; you can sort using the Categories on the left.
Enabling the Addon
Choose the Addon you require then begin following the set up steps. SmartSearch is a leading UK provider of anti-money-laundering software. Its anti-money-laundering verification platform conducts individual and business searches, both for the UK and international markets with automatic worldwide sanction and PEP screening. Business checks refer to screenings conducted for companies or other organisational contacts, which are currently restricted to being accessible only via the SmartSearch dashboard.
SmartSearch’s automated, electronic verification is significantly more convenient for both users and their end customers, with individual AML checks taking two seconds from start to finish, while business checks take less than three minutes. This is alongside a host of innovative digital compliance solutions which support regulated organisations in remaining compliant and secure, in the fight against global money laundering and fraud.

Navigate to Setup Instructions to enable the Addon, following the instructions in the tile.
Once you have your credentials you can enter them in the Configuration tab and Enable the Addon for your site.
Once your Addon is enabled, to run an AML check you simply head to the client record via Contacts and, from the Add New menu, select Background Check.
Select SmartSearch from the New Background Check side modal.
From here you can enter any information that's missing from your client's contact record:
Once you have hit Save, you will be taken to a pending check while SmartSearch runs the AML in the background. Once complete, the status will change to Complete and flag up any referral required to an MLRO officer if there are any questions or failures on the submission:
Clicking on the entry will take you to the AML check details page, where you can add any notes, view the result output in the Files tab and check what has flagged for refer where applicable.
The full report provides any areas where the AML check might have failed.
As this is a dummy entry, as you can see there are multiple failures for review!
If you need any support from the SmartSearch team you can contact your usual Customer Success Manager/Executive - you should have been provided details of who your main point of contact is there. If you are not sure who your account manager is, you can email [email protected] and they will help you out!
