Conga CLM for Advantage Platform release 202609.1.0, published to Preview on 22 September 2026, adds Supplier Sanctions Screening, which checks one or many suppliers against the OFAC SDN List and the UN Consolidated Sanctions List and emails per supplier PDF reports. Screening runs on a purpose built AI skill using exact match logic with no score or fuzzy matching, and it never blocks a supplier automatically: an authorized user must block with a recorded reason, after which linked contracts show a Blocked tag and their workflow actions pause.
Buyer relevance. Legal and procurement teams get sanctions checks inside the contract workflow with a documented human decision point, a clear answer to where the AI acts on its own and where a person must decide. This is a Preview release, so confirm production availability before relying on it.
