Creating a Volume Rule Containing Dependent Criteria

With volume rules you can monitor if pending alerts exceed defined event amounts within a given period.

Create a volume rule for transactions in a given period with a set amount outside a defined country.

The volume rule GE£2000 NOTUK 48H analyzes pending alerts for transactions processed outside the UK in a 48-hour period for a transaction amount over GBP2,000.

Create a rule as explained in Creating rules with history criteria with "GE£2000 NOTUK 48H" as the rule name, and with the following criteria:

Transactions outside the UK

1. Click Add in the Create Rule step of the Create Rule and Action Wizard.

2. From the Criteria list menu, select NOT and MERCHANT_COUNTY_CODE and =; enter GB in the input field for that list menu.

3. Click Save & Next in the Create Rule and Action Wizard.

Transactions in a 48-hour period for an amount over GBP2,000

1. In the Create History Criteria step, set the analysis level in the Aggregate By list menu to Relationship Level.

2. From the Value to Sum list menu select AMT_CH_BILL.

3. In the Sum Threshold list menus, set the volume to >= (Volume Greater Than or Equal) and enter 2000.

4. In the Frequency Threshold list menus, set the velocity to >= (Velocity Greater Than or Equal) and enter 0.

5. Ensure that the selection for the distinct count function (Difference; Same) rule is set to None.

6. Set the value for the Days field to 2, and ensure that the values for Hours and Mins are set to 0.

   Alternatively, you could set the value for Days to 0, and that for Hours to 48.

The defined criteria are now all displayed in the Summary accordion of the Create Rule and Action Wizard dashboard, and the procedure is completed. Complete the Create Rule and Action Wizard, navigate to the rule you have just created, and activate it by clicking Toggle Rule.
