# AML settings

This topic describes how to configure Anti-Money Laundering (AML) settings. An AML check is an automated process that scans customer information against Rebilly AML sources as each new customer or lead is added, or when their information is changed. For more information, see [AML](/docs/kyc-and-aml/aml#aml).

This feature is available for the Rebilly AML product only. To activate AML, [contact Rebilly](/support/).

## Configure AML match priority settings

Use this process to configure match priority levels settings for AML sources. For each source, set the priority level for when very strong, strong, medium, and weak matches of customer information are found.

During an AML check, customer associated hits are determined based on the highest priority.
This priority determines which hit is more important, and must be added to the AML check record. For example, a Politically-Exposed Persons (PEPs) check has 2 hits. One hit is a **P2** match, and the other hit is a **P1** match. The **P1** hit is added to the AML check record, because it has the highest priority. For more information, see [AML sources](/docs/kyc-and-aml/aml#aml-lists).

1. In the left navigation bar, press .
2. In the **KYC & AML** section, press **AML**, then press **Match priority settings**.
3. For each AML source, set the level of priority to assign matches in the **Very strong**, **Strong**, and **Medium**, and **Weak** dropdowns based on the following options:
  - **P0**: Critical level of priority.
  - **P1**: High level of priority.
  - **P2**: Medium level of priority.
  - **P3**: Low level of priority.
  - **Ignore**: Ignore this match and do not assign a priority level.
4. When you finish setting priority levels, press **Update**.
