How to view the Institution Screening scan summary

Step 1: Click on the Institution Screening dropdown button and select the “Scan Summary” option.

The above action will display a page as seen in the image below.

TOTAL PARAMETERS: This Section Value quickly informs the reviewer of the number of parameters uploaded into the system for scanning/screening purposes.

Parameters could be BVN, NAMES, ID Numbers, PHONE NUMBERS, or EMAILS.

TOTAL SCANNED PARAMETERS: This Section Value informs the reviewer how many parameters have been scanned thus far. This number would increase daily.

TOTAL SCANNED RESULTS: This Section Value informs the reviewer how many results are present from all parameters that have been scanned. 

TOTAL SCANNED RESULTS(LAST 24 HRS): This Section Value informs the reviewer of the total number of new results from the scan conducted in the last 24 hours.

This aids the reviewer who may be reviewing on a daily basis, focusing on the newer scans and helping to attain a thorough review process. There are explorers where these scan results can be targeted by the date the scan results were entered by the software.

TOTAL HIGH PREDICTIONS(LAST 24 HRS): This Section Value plays a very important role as the software uses artificial intelligence and Machine Learning to learn the data from Scan results and give scores on how sure it is about the matches. The lowest score is 1 and the highest is 100.

100 means that the software is extremely confident that the scan result (a customer’s account) is an exact match to the scanned parameter.

This enables the reviewer to focus more closely on high matches and easily sort them out, thereby avoiding time wasted on false positives.

The software categorizes HIGH PREDICTIONS as scan results that score 80 and above. Further, giving high predictions for the last 24 hours tells the reviewer how many records should be concentrated on out of the total scanned results in the last 24 hours.

This further streamlines the review process. Predictions in this category are colored red for easy identification.

TOTAL MEDIUM PREDICTIONS(LAST 24 HRS): The software categorizes MEDIUM PREDICTIONS as scan results that score between 50 and 79. Predictions in this category are colored yellow for easy identification.

TOTAL LOW PREDICTIONS(LAST 24 HRS): The software categorizes LOW PREDICTIONS as scan results that score between 1 and 49. Predictions in this category are colored blue for easy identification.

HIGH PREDICTIONS%(LAST 24 HRS): This tells the percentage of high predictions in the scan results from scans conducted in the last 24 hours.

MEDIUM PREDICTIONS% (LAST 24 HRS): This tells the percentage of medium predictions in the scan results from scans conducted in the last 24 hours.

LOW PREDICTIONS%(LAST 24 HRS): This tells the percentage of low predictions in the scan results from scans conducted in the last 24 hours.
The software gives a special prediction score of 81 to scan parameters it detects as Names of individuals that match the Signatory/Director of corporate accounts.
With the artificial intelligence and machine learning ability of the software to scan and predict the probability of match accuracy in scores, reviewing these scan results is made easier than expected.
