The Associated Entity Schema contains information about entities associated with the main business or individual. It is used for tracking Ultimate Beneficial Owners (UBOs) and other related entities in Parcha’s case management system.

This schema is crucial for maintaining accurate records of related entities and ensuring compliance with KYB regulations.

  • If website is provided, it must be a valid URL or a list of valid URLs.
  • description is typically limited to a maximum length (e.g., 512 characters).

​
Validation Process

When submitting data for the Associated Entity Schema, the system performs several validation checks:

  1. Field formats are validated (e.g., date formats, URL formats).
  2. Field values are checked for validity (e.g., ownership percentage range).
  3. If skip_validation is false, additional KYB (Know Your Business) checks may be performed.

If any validation errors occur, the system will return a SchemaValidationError with details about the specific fields that failed validation.

​
Usage in API

When using this schema in API calls:

  1. Provide as much information as available about the associated entity.
  2. Follow the specified formats for dates, URLs, and other structured data.
  3. Set skip_validation to true only for well-known entities where extensive KYB checks are not necessary.
  4. Be prepared to handle validation errors and adjust your data accordingly.
