Some Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) SAR XML elements are not listed or incorrectly populated in the SAR XML file that is generated using SAS Anti-Money Laundering.  

Here are some examples:

• If the IP Address field is blank, but there is populated information about an IP address (such as date and timestamp) involved in suspicious activity, the generated SAR XML does not include the IP address elements.
• If the Account Number field for a subject is blank, but there is populated information about accounts involved in the suspicious activity that are related to the subject, the generated SAR XML does not include the relevant subject account elements.
• The values for NoBranchActivityInvolvedIndicator and NoKnownAccountInvolvedIndicator are incorrectly populated.
