The customer wants to transfer money from his checking account to his savings account. He does this via an internet banking session, where he needs to login using his password/pin. The password is valid so he enters the main menu. From the main menu he goes to the account menu. In this case he has chosen the transfer checking to saving option. The system validates the balance, in this case there was enough balance. Then updates both accounts and return with a transferred message. And the customer logs out (without doing another action). This is just one of many (millions) permutations. Use the choices on the right to make different diagrams or even different starting points (e.g. ATM, Merchant or Web-Shop).
