Create a Company Entity Manually and Set Monitoring

Version: 1.0Date: 4 October 2026Audience: Kyboa users

← Documentation library

1. Before you start

Create a maintained company client record from the details you hold.

Use an Entity to maintain the data you hold on a client and enable repeat screening or monitoring. Have the company name and jurisdiction ready; add other details only when known.

This example uses fictional documentation data. Creating an Entity saves the client record; it does not immediately run a screening.

3. Add the details you hold

The Company Details section contains optional information. Add registration identifiers, legal form, dates and business activities as available.

Use Contact & Notes for supporting information. The lower sections hold additional names, addresses, associated people and corporate shareholders. Keep the record accurate and leave unknown fields blank.

Optional company details entered for the documentation example.

4. Set Monthly monitoring

  1. Find Monitoring.
  2. Set Monitoring Frequency to Monthly. You can also choose Quarterly or Annually.
  3. Choose Create to save the Entity and its frequency.

Monitoring schedules repeat screenings. It is separate from running an immediate screening with Run Screening.

Monthly selected as the Entity Monitoring Frequency before saving.

  1. Review the saved identity and details on View Entity.
  2. Check the Monitoring section for Monthly. The next due date may initially be blank.
  3. To change details or frequency later, choose Edit, update the fields and choose Save changes.

6. Common questions

Complete the required Entity type, name and country or jurisdiction. Leave optional information blank when it is unknown.

If Kyboa finds an existing Entity, open and check that record before creating another. If a save fails, read the validation messages and correct the indicated fields.

If monitoring is not set, choose Edit and save a frequency. Keep an Entity active when it should remain eligible for scheduled monitoring.

7. Check completion

  • The Entity type, name and country or jurisdiction are correct.
  • Known details are saved and unknown details remain blank.
  • Monthly monitoring appears on the saved Entity.
  • You can reopen the Entity from the Entities list and edit it.
