# When to Use Multi-Search

## What Multi-Search is

Multi-Search allows you to run several checks at the same time on the same person or subject in a single submission.

## When it is useful

- When several checks belong to the same onboarding case
- When due diligence requires multiple related checks
- When you want one grouped workflow instead of running each search separately

## Important rule

Only bundle checks together if they are being performed for the same purpose and the same internal case or reference. If the purpose is different, run separate searches.

**Important:** Multi-Search improves efficiency, but it must still follow proper purpose and reference discipline.
