    you’d think anything over a few million would be flagged for manual review. such a basic systems check.

      It probably was and still accidentally approved. It happens. I see four eyes or maker checker processes fail all the time.

        No process is perfect, doesnt mean you dont put it in place in these context. The cost is trivially low given the volume and doesnt make you look like a moron.

          That’s my point. It’s in place and probably still failed. It happens.

            yes and my point was the automated flagged probably wasnt in place ;). That or the UI fucked up and truncated the value in a manner that lead to it looking much smaller =p
