Sanctions screening in Odoo

Sanctinel checks partners and goods automatically in Odoo — against sanctions, PEP, insolvency and export-control lists. The status appears as a ribbon right on the contact and can block orders and purchases. As an indication with a log.

Sanctinel is a screening aid, not legal advice. Competent authority in Germany: BAFA.

The risk

A sanctions breach hits management personally

⚖️

Personal liability

Breaches of export-control law can mean fines and personal liability — one missed hit is enough.

🔄

Lists change daily

Every EU sanctions package changes the lists. A one-off check at creation isn't enough.

📄

Spreadsheets won't survive an audit

Manual matching outside Odoo is error-prone and leaves no audit-proof record.
