A few weeks ago, we published a changelog proposing a set of AML & CTF custom fields for our Xero Practice Manager and FYI Elite integrations, and asked for your feedback. Thanks to everyone who upvoted, commented, and pushed back — the field set is now finalised and live in production.
The seven AML & CTF custom fields we proposed have shipped as planned:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
[A] AML & CTF Checked | Whether AML & CTF screening has been run for this client |
[A] AML & CTF Date | The date AML & CTF screening was most recently run |
[A] AML & CTF Outcome | The result of the screening check — Pass or Flagged |
[A] AML & CTF Outcome Notes | Details of any matches identified during screening (e.g. PEP, sanctions, adverse media) |
[A] AML & CTF PEP | Whether the client has been identified as a Politically Exposed Person, including PEP level |
[A] AML & CTF Risk Assessment | Whether a risk assessment has been completed and recorded for this client |
[A] AML & CTF Risk Rating | The client's assigned risk rating — Low, Medium, or High |
All new custom fields are prefixed with [A] to make them easy to identify as Annature-managed fields in your practice management system. To keep everything visually consistent, we've also renamed the existing verification custom fields to use the same [A] prefix.
To pick up the new fields and the renamed existing fields, your organisation owner needs to reconnect the integration. Head to Settings → Integrations and click Reconnect on the Xero Practice Manager or FYI Elite integration tile.
This is a one-time step. Once reconnected, the new fields will populate as verifications and screening checks are completed.
Alongside the custom fields update, we've added new UI to give you clearer visibility over which verification requests have been connected to a client in your practice management system, and the status of what's been synced.
On the identity verification dashboard, you'll now see an icon next to each request indicating whether it's connected to a client record. Open a connected request and you'll see the current sync status for both the custom fields and the documents that have been synced across — with the ability to resync anything that's out of sync or that failed to sync initially.
If you've been using Annature for a while but have only recently connected your practice management system — or if you've sent verifications outside your normal client onboarding flow — you can now retroactively connect those verifications to a client record.
Open any verification request from the triple dots menu, click Connect to Integration, search for the relevant client, and Annature will immediately create the link and sync the custom fields and documents across.
This is a housekeeping feature — the aim is to get all of your historical verification data captured in your practice management system so your client records reflect the complete picture.
