''If Country of Card Usage is not equal to Customer's home country then trigger the sending of a message to call that customer.''
 
At a bank some customers are not allowed to become overdrawn and some are:<br />
''If a customer tries to withdraw funds allowing their account to drop below $0 and they are allowed:''<br />
:''permit transaction''
otherwise:<br />
:''disallow transaction''
