# How to access your UK DBS settings & select a DBS role

## Learn about advanced DBS settings in this video, relevant for ordering standard and enhanced DBS checks.

DBS stands for **Disclosure and Barring Service**. If you are employed in a position that involves interacting with children or vulnerable adults, it is essential to undergo a standard or enhanced DBS check. 

This instructional video shows how to access your DBS settings and select the DBS role.

### **Using an approved DBS role**

Once your DBS role has been approved, you can use the approved role criteria when creating a criminal check.

When the approved role criteria has been added to the criminal check, the **Job Title** free-text field will no longer be available. Instead, you will see a **drop-down menu** containing the DBS roles that have been pre-approved for your account.

Select the appropriate role from the drop-down menu. You must select a role that matches the duties and responsibilities of the position for which the DBS check is being requested.

This helps ensure that the DBS check is ordered against an approved and appropriate role.
