Missing Obligations

When something you expected to see is not in your list, the cause is almost always how the item is generated rather than data going missing. Duely does not remove obligations silently.

The list lives in the Compliance Action Center, under Action Center in the sidebar.

First, check you are looking in the right place

Two different trails hold this kind of work, and it is easy to look in one for something that lives in the other.

Where	What it holds
Action Center	Firm level dates: program reviews, personnel, training, and AUSTRAC dates
Monitoring Queue	Per matter customer due diligence follow-ups

The Action Center states this on screen, describing itself as firm level compliance deadlines and noting that per matter customer due diligence follow-ups live in the Monitoring Queue. So if the item you are chasing belongs to a particular customer or engagement, it will never appear in the Action Center.

Then check the filters and the date

• Clear the event type filter. The Action Center filters by type, so a filter left on from last time hides everything else.
• Check the month you are viewing. The calendar shows one month at a time, so an item due next month is not on this screen yet.
• Look in each bucket rather than only the ones you expect. Overdue, Urgent, Upcoming and Recently Completed are separate, and a completed item moves out of the upcoming list.

Why an item may not be there at all

An item appears because something else in your setup generates it. If that source is not in place, the date is not either.

• The program review date comes from your program. If no program version has been approved, there is no review cycle to schedule. See Program builder.
• Training dates come from the training program configuration, which is set in the program's Personnel and Governance step.
• Personnel and AMLCO dates come from the appointments you have recorded. An AMLCO who has not been appointed produces no notification date.
• AUSTRAC dates come from your enrolment details, which are recorded in Firm setup. Missing or unconfirmed enrolment details mean the dates cannot be derived.
• Matter level follow-ups come from the customer's baseline. Until a customer's due diligence review is signed off, there is no next review date to schedule.

There is no way to add an obligation by hand

Obligations are generated from your firm's own configuration, and there is no manual add. A hand written obligation is not tied to a program version or an appointment, so it cannot be evidenced the way a generated one can.

To fix a missing obligation, correct whatever was meant to generate it.

Reporting a gap

If you have checked the two trails, cleared the filters, and confirmed the source is configured, and the item is still absent, report it.

Include:

• The obligation or date you expected, and when it should have been due
• Your industry and business type, since the vertical pack drives what is generated
• Which trail you looked in, Action Center or Monitoring Queue

Raise it through Contacting support. A missing generated obligation is a product problem rather than a settings problem, and it affects every firm in your situation rather than only yours.
