     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present disclosure relates to transfer management controls and systems and, more particularly, to systems and methods for monitoring expected transfers. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Resources, such as computing resources including memory and processing power and other resources such as tokens or value stores, may sometimes be transferred at electronic systems. For example, Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) provides a network which allows financial institutions to send and receive information about financial transactions. Most international interbank messages use the SWIFT network. 
     Such transfers may fail for any one of a number of reasons. By way of example, sometimes transfers are cancelled by a transferring party. Such cancellation may not be known to a recipient party and they may only discover long after they were expecting a transfer to occur that the transfer has, in fact, failed. Tracking of transfers and monitoring failed transfers can be particularly difficult in correspondent banking due, in part, to the volume of transactions typically involved. 
     Further, an update in an account balance due to a completed transfer may not be reflected instantly so account balances may sometimes be unreliable when automated processing decisions are to be made based on such account balances.

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF VARIOUS EMBODIMENTS 
     Computer-based tools for managing transfers are described. More particularly, methods and computer systems, such as server computing systems, which provide transfer management tools are described. 
     In an aspect, the present application described a method. The method may include: receiving an electronic message indicating an expected transfer, the message indicating at least a quantity of resources associated with the expected transfer and a value date associated with the expected transfer; detecting a trigger condition associated with the expected transfer; in response to detecting the trigger condition associated with the expected transfer, determining whether a transfer associated with the expected transfer has been made; and in response to determining that the expected transfer has not been made, providing a notification associated with an intraday resource availability interface to a client device associated with a recipient of the expected transfer. 
     Conveniently, the method may be used, for example, to notify of transfers that have or that may fail. 
     In some implementations, the method may include: matching one or more received transfers to one or more expected transfers; and marking the expected transfers having been matched as complete. Determining whether the transfer associated with the expected transfer has been made may include determining whether the expected transfer has been marked as complete. 
     In some implementations, the matching is based on amounts of the expected transfers and amounts of the received transfers. 
     In some implementations, the method may include determining an expected quantity of resources available at a defined future time by adjusting a current quantity of resources available to account for one or more of the expected transfers having associated value dates on or before the defined future time that have not yet been marked as complete. 
     In some implementations, the method may include determining an amount of borrowed resources to be provided to a recipient of the expected transfer based on the determined expected quantity of resources available at the defined future time. 
     In some implementations, the notification may include a selectable option to cancel the expected transfer. 
     In some implementations, cancelling may include ceasing further attempts to match the expected transfer with received transfers. 
     In some implementations, the method may include determining an expected quantity of resources available at a defined future time based on the expected transfer and wherein cancelling includes adjusting the expected quantity of resources at the defined time based on the cancelled expected transfer. 
     In some implementations, the trigger condition may occur upon detecting a defined time on the value date. 
     In some implementations, the defined time may be a close-of-business time. 
     In some implementations, the notification may include a selectable option to define a new value date for the expected transfer. 
     In another aspect, there is described a server computer system. The server computer system includes a communications module, a processor coupled to the communications module and a memory storing processor-executable instructions which, when executed, configure the processor to perform a method described herein. 
     In a further aspect, there is provided a non-transitory computer readable storage medium including processor-executable instructions which, when executed, configure a processor to perform a method described herein. 
     Other aspects and features of the present application will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art from a review of the following description of examples in conjunction with the accompanying figures. 
     In the present application, the term “and/or” is intended to cover all possible combinations and sub-combinations of the listed elements, including any one of the listed elements alone, any sub-combination, or all of the elements, and without necessarily excluding additional elements. 
     In the present application, the phrase “at least one of . . . or . . . ” is intended to cover any one or more of the listed elements, including any one of the listed elements alone, any sub-combination, or all of the elements, without necessarily excluding any additional elements, and without necessarily requiring all of the elements. 
       FIG. 1  is a schematic operation diagram illustrating an operating environment of an example embodiment. 
     As illustrated, a server  160  (which may also be referred to as a server computer system) and a client device  150  communicate via a network  120 . The client device  150  is a computing device that may be associated with an entity, such as a user or client, having resources associated with the server  160 . For example, the server  160  may track, manage, maintain, and/or lend resources to the entity. The resources may, for example, be computing resources, such as memory or processor cycles. By way of further example, the resources may include stored value, such as fiat currency, which may be represented in a database. For example, the server  160  may be coupled to a database  180 , which may be provided in secure storage. The secure storage may be provided internally within the server  160  or externally. The secure storage may, for example, be provided remotely from the server  160 . For example, the secure storage may include one or more data centers. The data centers may, for example, store data with bank-grade security. 
     The database  180  may include records for a plurality of accounts and at least some of the records may define a quantity of resources. For example, the entity that is associated with the client device  150  may be associated with an account having one or more records in the database. The records may reflect a quantity of stored resources that are associated with the entity. Such resources may include owned resources and, in at least some embodiments, borrowed resources. The resources that are associated with an entity may be grouped into various buckets. Some such buckets may, for example, represent individual bank accounts. For example, an entity may be associated with one or more bank accounts. At least some of the resources may be borrowed resources. The borrowed resources may, for example, represent an amount of credit that is available to the entity. 
     The entity that is associated with the client device  150  and the account may be a customer of a financial institution which operates or manages the server  160 . The financial institution may, for example, offer correspondent banking services to the entity. A correspondent bank is a bank that provides services on behalf of another financial institution. For example, the entity may be a financial institution that operates in a jurisdiction that is different than the jurisdiction in which the financial institution operates. By way of example, the financial institution may operate within Canada and the entity may be a financial institution that is foreign to Canada. For example, the entity may be a United States bank. The entity may rely upon the financial institution and, in particular, the server  160 , for facilitating wire transfers, conducting transactions, accepting deposits, etc. within a country in which the entity does not operate directly. All such operations may be considered transfers. 
     The amount of credit that is available to the entity as reflected in the database  180  may be defined by the financial institution that operates the server  160 . For example, the server  160  may communicate with an administrator device  170 . The administrator device  170  is a computing device that may be operated by an administrator associated with the financial institution. The administrator may login to the server  160  and may then define a credit limit that is to be associated with the entity. The credit limit represents an amount of borrowed resources that the entity will be permitted to use. During the course of a day, the entity may use and obtain additional resources as transactions (both incoming and outgoing) are processed. At various points throughout the day, the owned resources for an entity may fall below zero and the entity may then begin to use borrowed resources. 
     Accordingly, the administrator device  170  may be used to vary administrator settings such as the total amount of borrowed resources that are available to the entity. An administrator may, for example, modify the credit limit in response to market conditions. For example, if a recent event suggests that the entity may have an inability to return borrowed resources, the administrator may reduce the amount of resources available for borrowing by using the administrator device  170  to configure the server  160  to reduce the amount of credit available. 
     The server  160  may, for example, process transfers that involve other financial institutions. For example, transfer messages may be received at the server  160  from a third party server  190 . The third party server  190  may be a server associated with a SWIFT network, for example. The server  160  and the third party server  190  may communicate over a network, for example. 
     The client device  150 , the server  160 , the third party server  190  and the administrator device  170  may be in geographically disparate locations. Put differently, the client device  150  may be remote from the server  160  and the server  160  may be remote from the administrator device  170  and the third party server  190 . 
     The client device  150 , the server  160 , the third party server  190  and the administrator device  170  are computer systems. The client device  150  and/or the administrator device  170  may take a variety of forms including, for example, a mobile communication device such as a smartphone, a tablet computer, a wearable computer such as a head-mounted display or smartwatch, a laptop or desktop computer, or a computing device of another type. 
     The client device  150  may communicate with the server  160  via the network  120  in order to manage the use of resources. For example, the client device  150  may access the server to access a graphical user interface for viewing resource status and/or for managing the user of resources. 
     The network  120  is a computer network. In some embodiments, the network  120  may be an internetwork such as may be formed of one or more interconnected computer networks. For example, the network  120  may be or may include an Ethernet network, an asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) network, a wireless network, or the like. 
     The client device  150 , the server  160  and the administrator device  170  are computing devices. Referring now to  FIG. 2 , a high-level operation diagram of an example computing device  200  will now be described. The example computing device  200  may be exemplary of the client device  150 , the server  160  and/or the administrator device  170 . 
     The example computing device  200  includes a variety of modules. For example, as illustrated, the example computing device  200  may include a processor  210 , a memory  220 , a communications module  230 , and/or a storage module  240 . As illustrated, the foregoing example modules of the example computing device  200  are in communication over a bus  250 . 
     The processor  210  is a hardware processor. The processor  210  may, for example, be one or more ARM, Intel x86, PowerPC processors or the like. 
     The memory  220  allows data to be stored and retrieved. The memory  220  may include, for example, random access memory, read-only memory, and persistent storage. Persistent storage may be, for example, flash memory, a solid-state drive or the like. Read-only memory and persistent storage are a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. A computer-readable medium may be organized using a file system such as may be administered by an operating system governing overall operation of the example computing device  200 . 
     The communications module  230  allows the example computing device  200  to communicate with other computing devices and/or various communications networks. For example, the communications module  230  may allow the example computing device  200  to send or receive communications signals. Communications signals may be sent or received according to one or more protocols or according to one or more standards. For example, the communications module  230  may allow the example computing device  200  to communicate via a cellular data network, such as for example, according to one or more standards such as, for example, Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA), Evolution Data Optimized (EVDO), Long-term Evolution (LTE) or the like. Additionally or alternatively, the communications module  230  may allow the example computing device  200  to communicate using near-field communication (NFC), via Wi-Fi™, using Bluetooth™ or via some combination of one or more networks or protocols. In some embodiments, all or a portion of the communications module  230  may be integrated into a component of the example computing device  200 . For example, the communications module may be integrated into a communications chipset. 
     The storage module  240  allows the example computing device  200  to store and retrieve data. In some embodiments, the storage module  240  may be formed as a part of the memory  220  and/or may be used to access all or a portion of the memory  220 . Additionally or alternatively, the storage module  240  may be used to store and retrieve data from persisted storage other than the persisted storage (if any) accessible via the memory  220 . In some embodiments, the storage module  240  may be used to store and retrieve data in a database. A database may be stored in persisted storage. Additionally or alternatively, the storage module  240  may access data stored remotely such as, for example, as may be accessed using a local area network (LAN), wide area network (WAN), personal area network (PAN), and/or a storage area network (SAN). In some embodiments, the storage module  240  may access data stored remotely using the communications module  230 . In some embodiments, the storage module  240  may be omitted and its function may be performed by the memory  220  and/or by the processor  210  in concert with the communications module  230  such as, for example, if data is stored remotely. The storage module may also be referred to as a data store. 
     Where the example computing device  200  functions as the server  160  of  FIG. 1 , the storage module  240  may allow the example computing device  200  to access the secure data in the database  180 . 
     Software comprising instructions is executed by the processor  210  from a computer-readable medium. For example, software may be loaded into random-access memory from persistent storage of the memory  220 . Additionally or alternatively, instructions may be executed by the processor  210  directly from read-only memory of the memory  220 . 
     The computing device  200  will include other components apart from those illustrated in  FIG. 2  and the specific component set may differ based on whether the computing device  200  is operating as the client device  150 , the server  160 , or the administrator device  170 . For example, the computing device  200  may include one or more input modules, which may be in communication with the processor  210  (e.g., over the bus  250 ). The input modules may take various forms including, for example, a mouse, a microphone, a camera, a touchscreen overlay, a button, a sensor, etc. By way of further example, the computing devices  200  may include one or more output modules, which may be in communication with the processor  210  (e.g., over the bus  250 ). The output modules include one or more display modules which may be of various types including, for example, liquid crystal displays (LCD), light emitting diode displays (LED), cathode ray tube (CRT) displays, etc. By way of further example, the output modules may include a speaker. 
     Furthermore, while a single network  120  is illustrated, in operation multiple networks may be utilized. For example, the client device may communicate with the server  160  over a first network, whereas the server  160  may communicate with the third party server over a second network, such as a SWIFT network. 
     Furthermore, the server  160  is a system which may be comprised of numerous computing devices that are communicatably connected to one other (e.g., over a network). 
     While not illustrated in  FIG. 1 , the server  160  may be in communication with other computer systems that may be engaged in processing or clearing a transfer. 
       FIG. 3  depicts a simplified organization of software components stored in the memory  220  of the example computing device  200  ( FIG. 2 ). As illustrated, these software components include an operating system  300  and an application  310 . 
     The operating system  300  is software. The operating system  300  allows the application  310  to access the processor  210  ( FIG. 2 ), the memory  220 , and the communications module  230  of the example computing device  200  ( FIG. 2 ). The operating system  300  may be, for example, Google™ Android™, Apple™ iOS™, UNIX™, Linux™, Microsoft™ Windows™, Apple OSX™ or the like. 
     The application  310  adapts the example computing device  200 , in combination with the operating system  300 , to operate as a device performing a particular function. For example, the application  310  may cooperate with the operating system  300  to adapt a suitable embodiment of the example computing device  200  to operate as the client device  150 , the server  160  and/or the administrator device  170 . 
     While a single application  310  is illustrated in  FIG. 3 , in operation the memory  220  may include more than one application  310  and different applications  310  may perform different operations. 
     Reference will now be made to  FIG. 4 , which illustrates an example record  400  for an entity account. The entity account may, for example, be an account for a foreign financial institution. The record  400  may be stored in the database  180  ( FIG. 1 ). The record  400  may be referred to, for example, as an entity record, an account record, or an entity account record. 
     The record  400  includes data associated with the entity. For example, the record  400  may include resource availability data. The resource availability data may include data representing resources owned by the entity and/or resources available for borrowing by the entity. The record  400  may include resource availability data for a plurality of storage locations. These storage locations, which may also be referred to as buckets or virtual stores, may represent individual bank accounts that are each associated with the entity. The example record  400  includes first storage location data  402  and second storage location data  404 . The first storage location data  402  may represent a first bank account and the second storage location data  404  may represent a second bank account. The first storage location data  402  may include a first storage location balance  420  and first storage location transactions  422 . The first storage location balance  420  may represent a current amount of resources stored in, represented by, or otherwise associated with the first storage locations. For example, the first storage location balance  420  may represent a current bank balance for the first storage location. 
     The first storage location transactions  422  may be a transaction listing for the first storage location. For example, the first storage location transactions  422  may identify completed (i.e., posted), pending (i.e., authorized transactions awaiting completion) and/or scheduled transactions that are associated with the first storage location. Transactions may represent the transfer of resources between records and may also be referred to as transfers. Accordingly, a transaction may also be referred to as a data transfer or an intraday transfer since the transactions may represent transfers for a particular day (e.g., the present day). 
     The first storage location transactions  422  may represent both incoming and outgoing transactions for the first storage location. Incoming transactions may be referred to as credits whereas outgoing transactions may be referred to as debits. Incoming transactions have an effect of increasing the availability of resources in the first storage location and outgoing transactions have the effect of decreasing the availability of resources in the first storage location. Incoming transactions, therefore, represent the receipt of additional resources, whereas outgoing transactions represent the removal of resources. 
     The second storage location data  404  also includes a balance (referred to as the second storage location balance  440 ) and transactions (referred to as the second storage location transactions  442 ). These are similar to the first storage location balance  420  and the first storage location transactions  422  except that the second storage location balance  440  and the second storage location transactions  442  refer to data associated with the second storage location. 
     The record  400  also includes borrowed resource data  406 . The borrowed resource data includes data regarding borrowed resources. The borrowed resources are resources that are not owned by the entity associated with the record  400  but that are made available to that entity. For example, the borrowed resources may be resources that are owned by an operator of the server  160 . The borrowed resource data  406  may include a borrowed resource limit  460 . The borrowed resource limit  460  may indicate a threshold. The threshold may be, for example, a maximum amount of borrowed resources that are available to the entity. The threshold may, in at least some embodiments, be a credit limit such as a credit limit that is sometimes referred to as an undisclosed credit limit. The borrowed resource limit  460  may be controlled or configurable by the operator of the server  160  and/or by the server  160  itself. For example, the server  160  may be configured to automatically reduce the borrowed resource limit  460  in response to detecting the occurrence of one or more predetermined trigger conditions. By way of example, the server  160  may automatically monitor electronic media (such as news websites, social media, etc.) and may automatically reduce the borrowed resource limit  460  if a trigger condition occurs which would suggest that the entity may not be able to return any borrowed resources. For example, news articles suggesting that the entity has or is about to file for creditor protection or other relief may cause the server  160  to automatically reduce the borrowed resource limit  460 . Alternatively or additionally, the server  160  may reduce (or increase) the borrowed resource limit  460  in response to receiving an instruction to do so from an authenticated administrator device  170 . 
     The borrowed resource data  406  also includes data reflecting borrowed resources used  462 . For example, such information may be a total amount of credit that has already been used by the entity. 
     The borrowed resource data  406  may include a reserved borrowed resource amount  466 . The reserved borrowed resource amount  466  may be a quantity that is defined by the entity (e.g., through the client device) which represents an amount of borrowed resources that are not to be used. That is, the reserved borrowed resource amount  466  may represent an amount of resources that are to be set aside and not used (unless the reserved borrowed resource amount  466  is varied to release such resources). The reserved borrowed resource amount  466  may be defined by the client device  150  in response to user input and the reserved borrowed resource amount  466  may be defined for any one of a number of reasons. For example, the server  160  may be configured to dip into the borrowed resource limit  460  (i.e., to borrow resources) whenever insufficient resources are available in the various storage locations (e.g., when the first storage location balance  420  and/or the second storage location balance  440  fall to zero). When borrowed resources are used, however, the entity may be required to, in the future, not only replenish the borrowed resource that were used, but also to transfer a further amount of resources to an account associated with the server  160  (e.g., interest may be required). The entity may prefer to limit the amount of borrowed resources that are used in order to avoid having to transfer such additional resources to the account associated with the server  160  and may, instead, prefer that outgoing transfers be delayed until the storage location balance(s)  420 ,  440  rise above zero. Additionally or alternatively, the entity may prefer to reserve a portion of the borrowed resource limit  460  for emergencies. 
     The borrowed resource data  406  may include an earmarked resource amount  468 . As will be described in greater detail below, various transactions may be earmarked and earmarking may reserve a portion of the borrowed resource limit  460 . The earmarked resource amount  468  may reflect the total number of transactions that have been earmarked. 
     The borrowed resource data  406  may, alternatively or additionally, include a borrowed resource balance  464 . The borrowed resource balance  464  is an amount of borrowed resources that have been made available to the entity that are not yet used. For example, the borrowed resource balance  464  may be the difference between the borrowed resource limit  460  and the current borrowed resources used  462 . In at least some embodiments, the borrowed resource balance  464  may be further discounted for the reserved borrowed resource amount  466  and/or the earmarked resource amount  468 . For example, in some embodiments, the borrowed resource balance  464  may be determined by subtracting the current borrowed resources used  462 , the reserved borrowed resource amount  466  and/or the earmarked resource amount  468  from the borrowed resource limit  460 . 
     While  FIG. 4  illustrates the borrowed resource data  406  apart from the first storage location data  402  and the second storage location data  404 , in some implementations, the borrowed resource data  406  may be associated with a particular storage location. For example, each storage location may have its own associated borrowed resources. 
     The record  400  may also include one or more processing conditions  470 . Processing conditions may take a variety of forms. By way of example, the processing conditions  470  may include one or more of: a defer processing condition (which may cause processing of one or more associated transfers to be suspended until the defer is released/removed), a prioritization processing condition (which may cause one or more associated transfers to be processed with a higher (or lower as the case may be) relative priority than other transfers not so prioritized), an earmark processing condition (which may cause at least a portion of the borrowed resource limit  460  to be set aside for one or more specified transactions), or a processing condition of another type. 
     A given one of the processing conditions  470  may be associated with a particular transaction. That is, a processing condition  470  may be linked to particular transaction. The transaction may be an outgoing transaction which is scheduled and/or currently pending. In some implementations, one or more of the processing conditions  470  may be linked to multiple transactions. For example, a processing condition  470  may include transfer identification information for identifying affected intraday transfers and an action that is to be applied to the affected intraday transfers. That is, the processing condition  470  may define a rule that may be used by the server  160  to identify affected transactions. By way of example, the processing condition may include a threshold and an action and the threshold may be used to identify which of the transactions are to be processed according to the action. The action may be, for example, any of the processing conditions recited previously (e.g., a defer processing condition, a prioritization processing condition, an earmark processing condition, or a processing condition of another type). The processing condition may specify a comparison operation associated with the threshold. The comparison operation may, for example, be a greater than (&gt;), less than (&lt;), equal to (==), greater than or equal to (&gt;=), or less than or equal to (&lt;=) operation. By way of example, the processing condition may specify that the action is to apply to any transactions that are greater than the threshold. By way of further example, the processing condition may specify that the action is to apply to any transactions that are less than the threshold. 
     Other transfer identification information that may be defined for a processing condition  470  and used to identify affected transfers may include, for example, a recipient name, a character string, a reference number, etc. By way of example, a processing condition  470  may specify that any transfers to a certain recipient are to be processed in accordance with a specific action. For example, such transfers may be automatically prioritized as high priority. By way of further example, such transfers may be automatically earmarked. By way of yet further example, such transfers may be automatically deferred. 
     The processing condition(s)  470  may be defined by the client device  150 . That is, the server  160  may update, modify, remove or add a processing condition in response to user input received at the client device  150 . Interfaces which facilitate input of processing conditions will be described in greater detail below. 
     The server  160  is configured to process transactions (i.e., intraday transfers) in accordance with the processing condition(s)  470 . By way of example, prioritization may affect processing order such that “higher” priority transactions are processed ahead of “lower” priority transactions. In some implementations, the server  160  may apply special processing rules to transfers of a certain priority. For example, “high” priority transfers may be processed with a white-glove service level such that at every stage of processing, they are specially handled to ensure efficient processing. By way of further example, in some implementations, low priority transfers may not use borrowed resources for processing. Such transfers may only be processed when owned resources are available (e.g., available in the first or send storage locations). 
     For a defer processing condition, the server  160  may, for example, pause processing of any transaction that is deferred until that transaction is released (i.e., until the deferral is removed). For a transaction that is earmarked, the server  160  may process such a transaction using borrowed resources. 
     The record  400  may include intraday peak position data  480 . The peak position data  480  may include peak credit position data and/or peak debit position data. For example, during the course of a day, the server  160  may automatically monitor inflows and outflows of resources for the account(s). During the day, resources may be received (i.e., credited) and resources may be sent (i.e., debited). The difference between the resources received and the resources sent throughout the day up until the current time is the current net position. When more resources have been received than sent, there is a credit position (indicating that the account balances are increasing) and when more resources have been sent than received, there is a net debit position (indicating that the account balances are decreasing). The peak position data  480  may indicate the maximum credit positions and maximum debit positions on an intraday basis. For example, the peak position data  480  may indicate the amount associated with each maximum and may also reflect a time associated with that maximum. The time may be the amount of time that the net position remained at the associated peak position. The peak position data  480  may include multiple peak credit and peak debit positions. For example, the top five credit positions and the top five debit positions may be stored. 
     The record  400  may include other data which may generally be referred to as intraday resource status data  490 . The intraday resource status data  490  may include historical data representing point in time data throughout the day. That is, the intraday resource status data  490  may indicate various balances or levels of resources at various times throughout the day. The intraday resource status data  490  may, for example, be used by the server  160  when preparing a user interface that includes a resource usage graph, which will be explained in greater detail below. 
     The record  400  may include more or less data than that illustrated in  FIG. 4  and the record  400  may be organized or grouped differently than what is illustrated in  FIG. 4 . For example, historical transaction data may be separated from upcoming or scheduled transaction data. 
     Operations performed by the client device  150  and the server  160  will be described below with reference to  FIGS. 5-10 . Referring first to  FIG. 5 , a flowchart showing example operations is illustrated. 
       FIG. 5  is a flowchart showing operations performed by a server  160 . The operations may be included in a method  500  which may be performed by the server  160 . For example, computer-executable instructions stored in memory of the server  160  may, when executed by a processor of the server  160 , configure the server  160  to perform the method  500  or a portion thereof. 
     At operation  501 , the server  160  authenticates an entity. For example, the server  160  receives authentication credentials from the client device  150  via a communications module. The authentication credentials may, for example, include one or more of: a username, a password, a personal identification number (PIN), biometric data such as a representation of a fingerprint, or other data that may be used to verify the identity of an operator of the client device  150 . The server  160  identifies an account to which the authentication credentials correspond and determines that the authentication credentials are valid before proceeding to subsequent operations  502  to  512  of the method  500 . If, instead, the server  160  determines that the authentication credentials are invalid, an error message may be returned to the client device  150  and/or a security action may be taken (such as locking an account after a predetermined number of invalid login attempts). 
     After the entity has validly authenticated itself with the server  160  at operation  501 , the entity may be considered to be an “authenticated entity”. The server  160  may then, at operation  502 , provide a user interface to the client device  150  via the communications module. For example, the server  160  may provide, via the communications module and to the client device associated with the authenticated entity, an intraday resource availability interface. 
     An example intraday resource availability interface  600  is illustrated in  FIG. 6 . The example resource availability interface  600  includes a resource usage graph  602  for one or more account associated with the authenticated entity. The resource usage graph  602  has a time axis  604  that includes a time period that includes a day start time  605  and a current time  606 . In the example illustrated, the time axis  604  is the x-axis and a resource quantum (which may be in units of resources, such as dollars) is the y-axis. The resource usage graph is an intraday graph, illustrating the change in resources over the course of a day. 
     The resource usage graph  602  includes one or more indicators which, in the example, are in the form of lines. The indicators may include a resource availability indicator  620 . The resource availability indicator  620  may be a measure of the total amount of resources available at an associated time. That is, the resource availability indicator indicates a total amount of resources over the time period. The value of the resource availability indicator  620  at any given point represents the quantity of resources available at the time represented by that point. The resource availability indicator may, in at least some implementations, be referred to as the available liquidity. 
     The resource availability indicator  620  indicates the total amount of resources over the time period, including borrowed resources, which are available for use in association with the one or more account that is associated with the entity. For example, the resource availability indicator may include borrowed resources that are not yet used, reserved, or earmarked (i.e., the borrowed resource balance  464  ( FIG. 4 )). The resource availability indicator  620  may also be based on the total account balances for all resource storage locations associated with the entity. For example, it may be based on the first and second storage location balances  420 ,  440  and also based on the borrowed resource balance  464 . Accordingly, the resource availability indicator  620  may reflect both owned and borrowed resources that are available for use by the entity in fulfilling outgoing transfers. A location on the resource availability indicator  620  indicates the total amount of resource available at a respective time of the day. 
     The resource usage graph  602  may include other indicators instead of or in addition to the resource availability indicator  620 . For example, the resource usage graph  602  may include a reserved resource indicator  622 . The reserved resource indicator  622  indicates the total quantity of resources that have been marked as reserved throughout the day. That is, it may indicate the reserved borrowed resource amount  466  ( FIG. 4 .). When more resources are reserved, the reserved resource indicator increases whereas when fewer resources are reserved, the reserved resource indicator decreases. 
     The resource usage graph  602  may include a borrowed resources used indicator  624  which indicates the total quantity of borrowed resources that have been used throughout the day. The current value of the borrowed resources used indicator  624  may correspond to the current borrowed resources used  462  ( FIG. 4 ) and prior values may indicate the borrowed resources used at other times of the day. As more borrowed resources are used, the borrowed resources used indicator  624  increases while, as less borrowed resources are used, the borrowed resources used indicator  624  decreases. 
     The resource usage graph  602  may include an intraday pending resource transfer indicator  626 . The intraday pending resource transfer indicator  626  indicates the net pending resource transfers throughout the day. The net pending resource transfers are based on both incoming transfers and outgoing transfers. The incoming transfers may be referred to as credits whereas the outgoing transfers may be referred to as debits. When the incoming pending resource transfers exceed the outgoing pending resource transfers, the intraday pending resource transfer indicator  626  is positive while it becomes negative when the outgoing pending resource transfers exceed the incoming pending resource transfers. In at least some embodiments, the pending resource transfers may also be reflected in the resource availability indicator  620 . That is, the resource availability indicator  620  may be based, in part, on the pending resource transfers. 
     The resource usage graph  602  may include an earmarked resource indicator  628  which indicates the total amount of resources that have been earmarked at any time during the day. 
     The resource usage graph  602  may include a borrowed resource limit indicator  630 . The borrowed resource limit indicator  630  indicates the total borrowed resource limit throughout the day (i.e., it indicates a borrowed resource threshold, which may be an “undisclosed” credit limit, where “undisclosed” refers to the fact that such a credit limit is not typically disclosed to the entity although the intraday resource availability interface  600  provides disclosure of such a credit limit). In the illustrated example, the total borrowed resource limit did not change at any time during the day (e.g., it remained at 10,000,000.00 throughout the course of the day). However, the total borrowed resource limit could be modified by the administrator device  170 . 
     The resource usage graph  602  may include a running total resource indicator  634 . The running total resource indicator  634  may represent the total owned resources (e.g., in the first and second storage locations) when the intraday pending and intraday posted transfers are taken into account. For example, the running total resource indicator  634  may be calculated by adjusting an opening balance for any prior pending or posted transfers during the day. The running total resource indicator  634  begins the day at a level that corresponds to the opening balance and is then adjusted as transactions become pending and posted throughout the day. 
     The resource usage graph  602  may include an intraday posted resource transfer indicator  636 . The intraday posted resource transfer indicator  636  indicates the net posted resource transfers throughout the day. The net posted resource transfers are based on both incoming transfers and outgoing transfers. The incoming transfers may be referred to as credits whereas the outgoing transfers may be referred to as debits. When the incoming posted resource transfers exceed the outgoing posted resource transfers, the intraday posted resource transfer indicator  636  is positive while it becomes negative when the outgoing posted resource transfers exceed the incoming posted resource transfers. In at least some embodiments, the posted resource transfers may also be reflected in the resource availability indicator  620 . That is, the resource availability indicator  620  may be based, in part, on the posted resource transfers. 
     The resource usage graph  602  is a dynamic graph. Notably, the use of computer systems that communicate over a network allow the resource usage graph  602  to be updated in real-time. As the server  160  processes transfers throughout the day, the resource usage graph  602  maintains fresh data. The freshness of the data may allow the entity to input instructions to the server  160  through the intraday resource availability interface  600  based on the current resources. As will be understood following the discussion below, the intraday resource availability interface  600  acts as a man-machine interface to allow the client device  150  to send instructions or commands to the server  160  to vary the server&#39;s behaviour based on up-to-date data. Notably, by providing fresh data on the intraday resource availability interface  600 , such instructions can be input while they remain valid (since the server  160  continues to process transactions while the intraday resource availability interface  600  is displayed). Further, through the use of computer systems, the intraday resource availability interface  600  may be fresh even though there may be numerous transactions being processed at a time and even though there may be a large geographic separation between the server  160  and the client device  150 . 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may include other display features. For example, the intraday resource availability interface  600  may include a current resource availability summary  680 . The current resource availability summary  680  may be displayed together with the resource usage graph  602  (i.e., on a common display screen). The current resource availability summary  680  displays current resource indicators including, for example, a current available resource indicator  682  which displays a current resource availability amount. The current available resources indicator  682  indicates a current amount of available resources, both owned and available for borrowing. The current available resource indicator  682  may correspond to the level of the resource availability indicator  620  at the current time. 
     The current resource availability summary  680  may include other current resource indicators. For example, a current borrowed resources used indicator  684  may indicate a current level of borrowed resources used. The current level of borrowed resources used may, for example, correspond to level of the level of the borrowed resources used indicator  624  at the current time. In the example, the current level of borrowed resources used indicator  684  indicates a negative number. In the example, a negative number is used to indicate that borrowed resources are currently being used. However, the number may instead by a positive number. A positive current level of borrowed resources used may occur when there are unused owned resources. Accordingly, the borrowed resources used indicator  684  may also reflect owned resources in at least some embodiments. 
     A current earmarked resources indicator  686  may display the current total amount of resources that have been earmarked. The current earmarked resources indicator  686  may correspond to the level of the earmarked resources indicator  628  at the current time. A current intraday pending resource transfer indicator  688  may display the current total amount of pending resource transfers for the day up until the current time. In the example, the current intraday pending resource transfer indicator  688  displays both the current pending credits and the current pending debits and displays a total which is based on the pending credits and debits. The current intraday pending resource transfer indicator  688  may correspond to the level of the intraday pending resource transfer indicator  626  at the current time. 
     A current intraday posted resource transfer indicator  690  may display the current total amount of posted resource transfers for the day up until the current time. In the example, the current intraday posted resource transfer indicator  690  displays both the current posted credits and the current posted debits and displays a total which is based on the posted credits and debits. The current intraday posted resource transfer indicator  688  may correspond to the level of the intraday posted resource transfer indicator  636  at the current time. 
     A current running total resource indicator  692  may be used to display a current total of owned resources which accounts for both the current intraday pending and intraday posted transfers. For example, the current running total resource indicator  692  may be calculated by adjusting an opening balance for any prior pending or posted transfers during the day. The current running total resource indicator  692  may correspond to the level of the running total resource indicator  634  at the current time. In the illustrated example, the current running total resources indicator  692  indicates a negative number, which indicates that borrowed resources are currently being used since all owned resources have been used. 
     A current reserved resources indicator  694  may display the current total amount of resources that have been reserved. The current reserved resources indicator  694  may correspond to the level of the reserved resources indicator  622  at the current time. 
     A current borrowed resource limit indicator  696  may indicate a current borrowed resource threshold. As noted previously, this threshold may be a limit that is defined by the entity operating the server  160 . This represents the total amount of resources that the entity is making available to the entity that is associated with the entity account represented by the intraday resource availability interface  600 . 
     In the example intraday resource availability interface  600  of  FIG. 6 , the current resource availability summary  680  is displayed together with an opening owned resource indicator  698 . The opening owned resource indicator  698  indicates the level of resources at the start of the day (i.e., an opening balance of resources) and it may be used, for example, in determining the current running total resource indicator  692 . A positive opening balance indicates that, at the start of the day, at least some owned resources were available and a negative opening balance may indicate that all owned resources were used and at least some borrowed resources were in use. 
     The indicators described above (both those in the resource usage graph  602  and those in the current resource availability summary  680 ) may be cumulative indicators for all storage locations for the entity that is associated with the intraday resource availability interface  600  being displayed. For example, they may account for resources associated with all storage locations in the entity account record  400  including, for example, a first storage location and a second storage location. 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may also include other indicators. For example, one or more indicators may be provided in a storage location-based summary  670 . The storage location-based summary includes similar features as the current resources availability summary  680  but the storage location-based summary  670  displays data on a per-storage location basis rather than as aggregate totals across all storage locations. 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may include a widget configured to accept input to modify a parameter affecting the resource usage graph. Example widgets include a toggle widget  652   a ,  652   b ,  652   c ,  652   d ,  652   e ,  652   f ,  652   g ,  652   h  which may be configured to toggle the display of an associated indicator. For example, when a particular indicator is displayed on the resource usage graph, the associated toggle widget may be selected to supress display of that indicator. For example, a borrowed resource limit toggle widget  652   a  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the borrowed resource limit indicator  630 . A borrowed resources used toggle widget  652   b  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the borrowed resources used indicator  624 . An earmarked resources toggle widget  652   c  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the earmarked resources indicator  628 . A reserved resources toggle widget  652   d  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the reserved resource indicator  622 . A resource availability toggle widget  652   e  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the resource availability indicator  620 . An intraday pending resource transfer toggle widget  652   f  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the intraday pending resource transfer indicator  626 . An intraday posted transaction toggle widget  652   g  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the intraday posted transaction indicator  636 . A running total resource toggle widget  652   h  may be used to selectively display or supress display of the running total resource indicator  634 . 
     Conveniently, the toggle widgets may be useful, for example, to address problems that are inherent to computer displays. For example, such displays have limited screen area and expansion of screen area may be limited due, for example, to hardware limitations such as the availability of display ports on the client device  150 . The toggle widget allows the same resource usage graph to be used to take different forms and allow for instant updating of the resource usage graph. For example, in at least some embodiments, activation of one of the widgets, such as one of the toggle widgets, causes the client device  150  to send a message to the server  160  requesting modification of the resource usage graph. The server  160  may prepare a modified resource usage graph based on the request and send it back to the client device  150  for display thereon. In other embodiments, the client device  150  may modify the resource usage graph in response to activation of the widget without further communicating with the server  160 . 
     Another example of a widget may be a zoom widget  650  which is configured to accept input to modify a displayed time period associated with the resource usage graph. For example, the zoom widget  650  may allow for zooming in or out of the resource usage graph. 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may also include a position monitor  660 . The position monitor  660  is configured to identify intraday peak position data  480 . As noted previously, peak position data  480  may include peak credit position data and/or peak debit position data. That is, the position monitor  660  may identify the one or more top peak net credit and/or net debit positions. In the example, illustrated, the top five peak net credit and top five peak net debit positions are identified. For each peak position, an associated time is indicated. The time is the time when the peak position occurred. An amount associated with the peak position is also identified, together with a duration. The duration represents a duration of the peak (i.e., a length of time). 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may, in at least some embodiments, be configured to accept input from a user for configuring one or more benchmarks that may be displayed on the resource usage graph  602 . The benchmarks may be, for example, flat lines. To configure a benchmark, a user may input a value associated with a given benchmark and, in at least some implementations, one more display properties such as a line style, line colour, line label, etc. The value may be expressed in dollars and, by way of example, the value may indicate a target balance. After receiving input configuring the benchmark, the intraday resource availability interface  600  may be updated to display the benchmark. 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may also, for example, be configured to accept input to zoom in or out of the resource usage graph  602 , to display additional data when a pointer is hovered at a given position relative to one or both axes of the resource usage graph  602 , etc. 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may be a multi-screen interface in which at least some functionality is provided on display screens apart from the example display screen of  FIG. 6 . For example, the intraday resource availability interface  600  may include selectable interface elements  672  for toggling between various display screens provided by the resource availability interface  600  and each such screen may include a subset of features provided by the intraday resource availability interface  600 . For example, selection of one of the selectable interface elements  672  may cause a resource prioritization screen to be displayed. An example resource prioritization screen is illustrated in  FIG. 7 . 
     The example resource prioritization screen provides particulars of a number of transfers, all of which are intraday transfers. For example, the resources prioritization screen may specify, for a given transfer, a reference number, a unique end-to-end transaction reference (UETR) which may act as a tracking number for cross border transfers, a quantity of resources, a unit indicator indicating the units of measurement of the resources (which is CAD or USD in the example), a status indicator, a recipient identifier, a sending identifier, and/or a priority status indicator. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 7 , the example screen of the intraday resource availability interface  600  may include a widget configured to accept input to modify a parameter, such as a parameter affecting the resource usage graph. The widget may, for example, be configured to receive a command that defines a processing condition that is to be applied for processing one or more of the transfers. 
     By way of example, an earmark widget  702  may be configured to accept input to reserve a portion of the borrowed resources for a particular transfer. The earmark widget  702  may, for example, be used to input an earmark command for a particular transfer. An earmark command may be used to configure the server  160  to reserve at least a portion of a borrowed resource balance (i.e., a portion that corresponds to the quantity of resources of the particular transfer) for the particular transfer. In the example, the earmark widget  702  may also be used to remove an earmark i.e., to input a command that causes the server  160  to remove the reservation of the portion of the borrowed resource balance for the particular transfer. In the example, the earmark widget  702  is a checkbox, but the earmark widget  702  may take other forms. 
     The example resource prioritization screen of  FIG. 7  includes a defer widget  704 . The defer widget  704  may be used to input a defer command for a transfer. The defer command is a processing condition that causes the associated transfer to be suspended so that it is not processed by the server  160  to complete the transfer until after the deferral is subsequently released. In the example, illustrated, the defer widget  704  also serves as a release widget which may be used to input a condition to remove a deferral of the transfer such that processing of that transfer resumes. That is, the release widget provides a selectable option to remove a processing condition. For example, the release widget may provide a selectable option to input a release command that removes a suspension previously applied to a transfer. In the example illustrated, the defer widget/release widget is a checkbox, but it may take other forms. 
     The example resource prioritization screen of  FIG. 7  includes a prioritization widget  706 . The prioritization widget  706  may be used to input a prioritization command. A prioritization command is associated with a processing condition that specifies a processing priority of at least one of the plurality of intraday transfers. The server  160 , upon receiving such a command, configures processing of the associated transfer(s) according to the specified processing priority. Higher priority transfers are processed before lower priority transfers. In the example illustrated, the priority of a given transfer may be modified through a drag and drop gesture which selects a particular transfer, drags and drops it on a desired priority level. Other types of prioritization widgets  706  may, however, be used. 
     A further example display screen of the intraday resource availability interface  600  is illustrated in  FIG. 8 . The display screen of  FIG. 8  may be displayed in response to selection of an associated one of the selectable interface elements  672 . 
     The example display screen of  FIG. 8  is a borrowed resource management interface which includes particular functionality for managing the use of borrowed resources. For example, the example display screen includes a further earmark widget  802  that is configured to accept input to reserve a portion of the borrowed resources for a particular transfer. The example earmark widget  802  of  FIG. 8  includes a textbox which allows for input of an identifier associated with a transfer, such as a unique identifier, UETR and/or an amount associated with the transfer. A listing of transfers that have previously earmarked is also listed and identifying data for such transfers is listed. Much like in the example of  FIG. 7 , the example display screen of  FIG. 8  includes its own earmark widget and deferral widget to affect the listed transfers. 
     The example display screen of  FIG. 8  includes a reserve resources widget  804 . The reserve resources widget  804  may be used to input a command to the server  160  to set aside a particular amount of borrowed resources that are not to be used. That is, the reserve resources widget  804  may be used to input an instruction to the server to configure the server to modify a reserved borrowed resource amount  466  ( FIG. 4 ). 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  may include other features apart from those described above. For example, the intraday resource availability interface  600  may include one or more widgets for defining a processing condition  470  of the type described above with reference to  FIG. 4 ; i.e., one that is to apply to any one or more transfer(s) that satisfy certain criteria. By way of example, a widget may allow for input of transfer identification information for identifying affected intraday transfers and an action that is to be applied to the affected intraday transfers. The processing condition  470  may include a threshold and an action and the threshold may be used to identify which of the transfers are to be processed according to the action. The action may be, for example, any of the processing conditions recited previously (e.g., a defer processing condition, a prioritization processing condition, an earmark processing condition, or a processing condition of another type). The processing condition may specify a comparison operation associated with the threshold. The comparison operation may, for example, be a greater than (&gt;), less than (&lt;), equal to (==), greater than or equal to (&gt;=), or less than or equal to (&lt;=) operation. By way of example, the processing condition may specify that the action is to apply to any transactions that are greater than the threshold. By way of further example, the processing condition may specify that the action is to apply to any transactions that are less than the threshold. 
     By way of further example, a sharing widget may be configured to receive input to send at least some data represented on the intraday resource availability interface to another computer system, such as another client device. In response to receiving input through the sharing widget, the server  160  may automatically send a message to the other computer system. The message may include data represented on the intraday resource availability interface. For example, a user may wish to send data associated with the position monitor  660  to another computer system since such data may be useful for certain reporting requirements. The sharing widget may facilitate such an operation. 
     The example display screen of  FIG. 8  also include a lock credit widget. The lock credit widget may be used to input a command to the server  160  to lock all credit so that borrowed resources are no longer to be used to process transfers. For example, as credit is freed up (e.g., due to, for example, incoming transfers), the freed up credit will not be used for other transfers while the lock remains in effect. The server may be configured to lift or reverse the lock (e.g., to unlock credit) upon receipt of a command to unlock the credit (such command may be issued via an unlock credit widget which may, for example, only be displayed when a lock is in effect). Additionally or alternatively, the server may be configured to automatically unlock the credit when a trigger condition is detected. The trigger condition may, for example, be a defined time of day (e.g., 4 pm). For example, when a clock time reaches the defined time, the credit may be automatically unlocked such that transfers may again be completed using borrowed resources. 
     Any one or more of the example display screens of  FIGS. 6 to 8  may be configured with an input interface which allows for toggling between different currencies that may be used for displaying value and the various displays may be updated in real time in response to receiving a request to change a displayed currency via such input interface. 
     The intraday resource availability interface  600  of  FIGS. 6 to 8  may also be referred to as an intraday transfer interface or an intraday transfer management interface since display screens provided by the interface may, as illustrated in  FIGS. 7 and 8 , identify specific transfers and provide functions for managing such transfers. 
     Referring again to  FIG. 5 , in providing the intraday resource availability interface  600  at operation  502 , the server  160  may obtain data necessary to generate the interface. The data may, for example, be obtained from the entity account record  400 . For example, the intraday resource status data  490  may be obtained. The server  160  may calculate or otherwise determine other data that is necessary to generate the interface and the server  160  may update the entity account record  400  to include certain data that is determined at operation  502  that is not yet stored in the entity account record  400 . 
     At operation  504 , the server  160  may detect a transfer of value associated with one or more account associated with the authenticated entity. The one or more account may, for example, represent storage locations. That is, the server  160  may detect a transfer of resources into or from one or more of the storage locations (such as the first storage location that is associated with the first storage location data  402  or the second storage location that is associated with the second storage location data  404 ). The transfer may be an incoming transfer or an outgoing transfer. 
     At operation  506 , the server determines an updated available resource amount based on the detected transfer of value. That is, the transfer is one that affects the amount of available resources and so the available resource amount is updated to account for the transfer. If the transfer is an incoming transfer, the available resource amount increases while, if the transfer is an outgoing transfer, the available resource amount decreases. The update at operation  506  may include adjusting a prior available resource amount based on an amount associated with the detected transfer. 
     At operation  508 , the server  160  sends, via the communications module and to the client device, an updated resource availability interface. The updated resource availability interface may, for example, be similar to the resource availability interface  600  of  FIG. 6  but it may be updated based on the transfer. For example, the updated resource availability interface may be updated to include or reflect the updated available resource amount. The resource availability indicator  620  may be updated to include or reflect the updated available resource amount (and upon such updating may be referred to as an updated resource availability indicator). Other indicators may also be updated to account for the transfer. For example, any one or a combination of the following may be updated: current borrowed resources used indicator  684 , current earmarked resources indicator  686 , current available resource indicator  682 , current intraday pending resource transfer indicator  688 , current intraday posted resource transfer indicator  690 , current running total resource indicator  692 , running total resource indicator  634 , reserved resource indicator  622 , borrowed resources used indicator  624 , intraday pending transfer indicator  626 , the earmarked resource indicator  628 , and/or any one or more indicators of the storage location-based summary  670 . 
     At operation  510 , the server  160  may receive input via a widget provided on the updated resource availability interface. Such input may be received at the server  160  via the communications module. That is, the server  160  may receive, via the communications module and from the client device, a signal representing a command. The command may be a command or operation of a type referenced with respect to a widget described above and the server  160  may, in response to receiving the command, perform an associated action and/or, at operation  512 , update the resource availability interface  600  based on the input. 
     By way of example, the widget used to input the command may be a reserve resources widget  804  and the command may be a command to set aside a particular amount of borrowed resources that are not to be used. That is, the reserve resources widget  804  may be configured to accept input to reserve a portion of the borrowed resources and the server  160  may, at operation  510 , receive, via the communications module and from the client device, a command to reserve a portion of the borrowed resources. The command may be sent from the client device to the server computer system responsive to input received through the widget. Then, in response to receiving the command, the server  160  may update the available resource amount. That is, the server  160  may determine a further updated available resource amount based on the reserved portion of the borrowed resources specified in the command. Then, at operation  512 , the server  160  may send, via the communications module and to the client device, a further updated resource availability interface. The further updated resource availability interface is similar to the resource availability interface  600  of  FIG. 6  but it has been updated to include a further updated resource availability indicator based on the further updated available resource amount. That is, the resource availability indicator  620  may be updated to, for example, add a further data point reflecting the available resources after the reserved amount is taken into account. Other affected indicators may also be updated including, for example, the current available resource indicator  682 . Notably, the updating may be made in real time or near real time despite the fact that the client device is remote from the server and the fact that numerous indicators may be affected. The computing systems (e.g., the server and client device) make possible such features. 
     The input received at operation  510  may be input that is received through a widget of another type and the updating of the resource availability interface  600  may be based on the nature of the widget. For example, when the input was received through a toggle widget  652   a ,  652   b ,  652   c ,  652   d ,  652   e ,  652   f ,  652   g ,  652   h , then the resource usage graph  602  may be updated to toggle display of the associated indicator. For example, the resource usage graph  602  may be updated to supress display of the resource availability indicator. 
     By way of further example, when the input is received through a zoom widget  650 , the resource usage graph  602  may be modified to change a displayed time period associated with the resource usage graph. For example, where the command is a request to zoom in, the time period may be limited from the currently displayed time period and when the command is a request to zoom out, the time period may be expanded from the currently displayed time period. 
     By way of further example, when the input is received through an earmark widget  702 ,  802 , then the resource usage graph  602  may be updated to modify one or more of the indicators that take earmarked resources into consideration including, for example, the earmarked resource indicator  628 , the current earmarked resources indicator  686 , the resource availability indicator  620  and/or the current available resource indicator  682  (which may also be referred to as a current resource availability indicator). 
     Responsive to receiving input through a widget, the server  160  may also update associated data in the record  400  ( FIG. 4 ). 
     Accordingly, the server  160  and the client device  150  may cooperate to provide a dynamic display. The display is dynamic in that it is constantly being updated to ensure it displays fresh data. 
     Referring now to  FIG. 9 , a flowchart showing example operations performed by a server  160  is illustrated. The operations may be included in a method  900  which may be performed by the server  160 . For example, computer-executable instructions stored in memory of the server  160  may, when executed by a processor of the server  160 , configure the server  160  to perform the method  900  or a portion thereof. Operations  901  to  906  of the method  900  may correspond to operations  901  to  906  of the method  500  of  FIG. 5 . 
     At operation  908 , the server  160  monitors a net credit position and/or a net debit position. The net credit/debit positions are monitored based on intraday transfers into and out of the accounts (i.e., the storage locations that store owned resources for the entity). At operation  910 , the server  160  may detect an intraday peak net credit/debit position. In at least some embodiments, the server  160  may track multiple peak positions for both credit and debit. For example, the server may track the top five peak credit positions and top five peak debit positions for the day. Accordingly, detecting a “peak” credit/debit position may include detecting that a current credit or debit position is higher than the lowest of the existing top five peak credit or debit positions (which may be reflected in the peak position data  480 ). The server  160  may determine a length or duration of the peak position and/or a time of the peak position. 
     At operation  912 , in response to detecting the intraday peak net credit/debit position, the server  160  sends, via the communications module and to the client device, a further updated resource availability interface. The further updated resource availability interface includes the detected intraday peak net credit position. For example, the position monitor  660  may be updated to include the detected peak net credit/debit position. Further, peak position data  480  in the entity account record  400  ( FIG. 4 ) may be updated to reflect the identified peak. The server  160  may also update the peak position data  480  in the record  400 . 
     At operation  914 , the server  160  may receive, via the communications module and from the client device, a signal representing a command to send data, such as the peak net credit/debit position (i.e., the peak position data  480 ). For example, a sharing widget may be configured to receive input to send at least some data represented on the intraday resource availability interface to another computer system, such as another client device. In response to receiving input through the sharing widget, the server  160  may (at operation  916 ) automatically send a message to the other computer system. The message may contain the data associated with the received command. 
     Referring now to  FIG. 10 , a flowchart showing example operations performed by a server  160  is illustrated. The operations may be included in a method  1000  which may be performed by the server  160 . For example, computer-executable instructions stored in memory of the server  160  may, when executed by a processor of the server  160 , configure the server  160  to perform the method  1000  or a portion thereof. 
     At operation  1001 , the server  160  authenticates the entity. Operation  1001  may be performed in the manner described above with respect to operation  501  of the method  500  of  FIG. 5 . 
     At operation  1002 , the server  160  provides, via the communications module and to a client device associated with an authenticated entity, an intraday transfer interface. The intraday transfer interface may identify a plurality of intraday transfers for the authenticated entity. By way of example, the display screen of  FIG. 7  may be displayed or the display screen of  FIG. 8  may be displayed. The intraday transfer interface, which may also be referred to as an intraday resource availability interface  600 , includes one or more widgets for managing processing of one or more of the identified intraday transfers. For example, an earmark widget  702 ,  802 , prioritization widget  706 , defer widget  704 , release widget (which may provide a selectable option to remove the processing condition such as a deferral processing condition input through the defer widget), a lock credit widget and/or reserve resources widget  804  may be provided on the intraday transfer interface. 
     At operation  1004 , the server  160  may receive, via the communications module and from the client device, a signal representing a command input through the intraday transfer interface. The command may, for example, be input through the widget. The command may be associated with a processing condition for at least one of the plurality of intraday transfers. 
     In response to receiving the command, the server  160  may configure one or more of the intraday transfers to be processed based on the processing condition associated with the command (at operation  1006 ). 
     The command received at operation  1004  may be a defer command having a processing condition that causes the associated intraday transfer(s) to be suspended. In response to receiving such a command, the server may, at operation  1006 , suspend processing of the associated transfer(s). Such processing may remain suspended until a release command is received which removes the suspension. The release command may be received via a widget which provides a selectable option to remove a processing condition, such as a release widget that provides a selectable option to input a release command to remove the suspension. 
     The command received at operation  1004  may be a prioritization command. The prioritization command is associated with a processing condition that specifies a processing priority of one or more of the intraday transfers. By way of example, a prioritization widget may be engaged to configure a transfer to be processed with “high”, “medium” or “low” priority. At operation  1006 , the server  160  may configure a transfer to be processed in accordance with a priority level specified by or in association with the prioritization command. That is, the server  160  may configure the affected intraday transfer(s) to be processed according to the specified processing priority. 
     The command received at operation  1004  may be an earmark command. For example, the authenticated entity may be associated with an account having a record in a database and the record may reflect a borrowed resource balance. The borrowed resource balance may indicate an amount of borrowed resources that are available. This may include borrowed resources that have not been previously used, reserved or earmarked. When an earmark command is received through interaction with the earmark widget, the server  160  may, at operation  1006 , configure one or more associated intraday transfers to be processed based on the processing condition by reserving at least a portion of the borrowed resource balance for such associated intraday transfers (which may be referred to as earmarked transfers). That is, the server  160  may set aside a portion of the borrowed resources and may only use that set aside portion to process the earmarked transfer(s). 
     In some implementations, the command received at operation  1004  may define a processing condition that includes or is associated with a rule that may be used by the server  160  to identify affected transactions and an action to be applied to such transactions. By way of example, the processing condition may include a threshold and an action and the threshold may be used to identify which of the transactions are to be processed according to the action. The action may be, for example, any of the processing conditions recited previously (e.g., a defer processing condition, a prioritization processing condition, an earmark processing condition, or a processing condition of another type). The processing condition may specify a comparison operation associated with the threshold. The comparison operation may, for example, be a greater than (&gt;), less than (&lt;), equal to (==), greater than or equal to (&gt;=), or less than or equal to (&lt;=) operation. By way of example, the processing condition may specify that the action is to apply to any transactions that are greater than the threshold. By way of further example, the processing condition may specify that the action is to apply to any transactions that are less than the threshold. At operation  1006 , the server  160  may identify affected transaction(s) based on the processing condition and may configure such transactions to be processed based on the action. For example, the server  160  may, for at least one of the plurality of intraday transfers, compare a value associated with that intraday transfer to the threshold and, based on the comparison, selectively configure that intraday transfer to be processed according to the action. 
     The rule that may be used by the server  160  to identify affected transactions may take other forms apart from a threshold. For example, the processing condition may include transfer identification information for identifying affected intraday transfers and an action to be applied to the affected intraday transfers. The actions may be of the type described above. The transfer identification information may, for example, specify reference number criteria. In at least some such embodiments, at operation  1006 , the server  160  may, for at least one of the plurality of intraday transfers that have been previously configured (and may be included on the intraday transfer interface), determine, based on the transfer identification information, that the action is to be applied to that intraday transfer. For example, the server may compare at least a portion of a reference number for the intraday transfer with the transfer identification information to determine that the action is to be applied to that intraday transfer. For example, the transfer identification information may specify a pattern or string of characters that is to be included in a reference number for affected transfers so that any transfers having such a pattern/string will be automatically processed in accordance with the action. In response to determining that the action is to be applied to the intraday transfer, the server configures that intraday transfer based on the action. 
     By way of further example, in at least some embodiments, the rule may identify a party so that transactions involving that party may be processed in a particular manner, which is defined by the rule. In one example, the rule may indicate that transfers that are to be directed to a particular recipient or a particular bank are to be processed in a particular way (e.g., they may be prioritized). For example, transfers to a particular bank, Bank A, may be configured to be automatically processed with high priority. 
     Other criteria for identifying affected transfers may be used instead of or in addition to the criteria specifically noted herein. 
     Once a rule has been defined for identifying transfers that are to be automatically processed according to an action, the identification of affected transfers may be ongoing. As transfers are added or created, they may be automatically processed according to the action if they satisfy the criteria defined for the rule (such as if they are on a particular side of the threshold). 
     Operation  1006  may include saving data such as a processing condition  470  to the entity account record  400 . 
     At operation  1008 , the server may provide, via the communication module and to the client device, an updated intraday transfer interface indicating processing of the transfer(s) according to the processing condition. 
     The server  160  may continue to process affected transfers in accordance with the processing condition. 
     In some instances, the server  160  may allow a client device associated with an authenticated entity to set aside a portion of a borrowed resource limit  460  ( FIG. 4 ) for a specific date. That is, a client device may be permitted to input a future-dated borrowed resources reservation request to set aside an amount of borrowed resources for a specific date. Such borrowed resources will not be released until the specific date. On the specific date, the amount of borrowed resources that have been set aside will be released for use. 
     While not illustrated in  FIG. 10 , in at least some embodiments, a command that is input via one or more of the earmark widget  702 ,  802 , prioritization widget  706 , defer widget  704 , release widget (which may provide a selectable option to remove the processing condition such as a deferral processing condition input through the defer widget), lock credit widget and/or reserve resources widget  804  may be automatically reversed by the server upon detecting a predetermined condition. For example, processing conditions, such as earmark, reserve and lock credit processing conditions or commands may be configured to expire upon occurrence of a defined event. In some instances, the event may be a particular time of day. For example, the processing condition may expire at 4 pm, for example. After a processing condition expires it is no longer used for processing transfers unless a further command to re-enable the processing condition is received. 
     In some scenarios, the setting aside of borrowed resources may be complicated since balances, such as the first storage location balance  420  and the second storage location balance  440  and the borrowed resource balance  464  may only be determined with absolute certainty when a batch reconciliation process is completed and the batch reconciliation process may only be completed at certain periods throughout the day; for example, at the end of the day. In such scenarios, it may be that a future-dated borrowed resources reservation request may appear to be a request that may be implemented at the time when it is received, but it may be that, once such reconciliation occurs, it is only then determined that the request can no longer implemented. In such a scenario, an error message may be generated and the error message may be sent to a remote computing device, such as the client device through which the request was received. 
     An overview having been provided, reference will now be made to  FIG. 11  which illustrates a flowchart showing example operations performed by a server  160 . The operations may be included in a method  1100  which may be performed by the server  160 . For example, computer-executable instructions stored in memory of the server  160  may, when executed by a processor of the server  160 , configure the server  160  to perform the method  1100  or a portion thereof. 
     At operation  1101 , the server  160  authenticates the entity. Operation  1101  may be performed in the manner described above with respect to operation  501  of the method  500  of  FIG. 5 . The entity may be authenticated at a client device operated by the entity such that further communications to the client device during the method  1100  may be considered to be communications with the entity. 
     At operation  1102 , the server  160  provides, via the communications module and to the client device associated with the authenticated entity, an intraday transfer interface. The intraday transfer interface may be or include the intraday resource availability interface  600  described above with reference to one or more of  FIGS. 6 to 8 , or may include one or more features described above as being included in the intraday resource availability interface  600 . 
     An example intraday transfer interface  1200  is illustrated in  FIG. 12 . The example interface includes one or more widgets for inputting a future-dated borrowed resource reservation request. The widgets include a selectable option  1206  to issue a future-dated borrowed resource reservation request to set aside an amount of borrowed resources. The widgets also include one or more interface elements for configuring parameters associated with such a request. For example, a date selection interface element  1202  is included in the example interface and may be used to define a date of release for the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request. 
     The date selection interface element  1202  may be configured to prevent selection of one or more dates or, put differently, to only enable selection of defined dates. For example, the date selection interface element  1202  may prevent selection of one or both of a past date and a current date. In at least some embodiments, the date selection interface element  1202  may prevent selection of a date that is deemed too far in the future. Whether a date is “too far” is determined based on a threshold time period. For example, in at least some embodiments, the date selection interface element  1202  may only allow selection of a date that is within a threshold number of days of a current date. Selection of a non-selectable date may be performed by either not allowing such a date to be selectable (e.g., by limiting the dates displayed for selection to only those that are selectable) or by issuing an error message when selection of an inappropriate date occurs (e.g., “the date must be in the future” or “the date cannot be more than 10 days in the future”). In at least some embodiments, the server  160  operates to prevent selection of the one or more dates by, for example, configuring the date selection interface element  1202  to prevent such selection or by generating the error message when selection of an inappropriate date occurs. 
     The widgets on the intraday transfer interface  1200  may include an amount selection interface element  1204 . The amount selection interface element  1204  may, for example, allow the authenticated entity to input a numerical value. The numerical value represents an amount of borrowed resources that are to be reserved for the selected date. The amount selected interface element  1204  may be configured to prevent selection of certain amounts. For example, the inputted number may be required to be greater than zero and less than or equal to a defined threshold. The defined threshold may be, for example, the borrowed resource limit  460  or may be the borrowed resource balance  464 . That is, the authenticated entity may only be permitted to reserve an amount of borrowed resources, such as credit, that does not exceed the total borrowed resources currently available, as defined by the borrowed resource balance  464 . Selection of a non-selectable amount may be performed by either not allowing certain amounts to be selectable (e.g., by using a slider for selection which is bound by zero and the defined threshold) or by issuing an error message when selection of an inappropriate amount occurs (e.g., “the amount cannot be less than zero” or “You currently only have $15,000,000 left on your credit line. Please select an amount that is less than $15,000,000”). In at least some embodiments, the server  160  operates to prevent selection of certain amounts by, for example, configuring the amount selection interface element  1204  to prevent such selection or by generating the error message when selection of an inappropriate amount occurs. 
     In the example the amount selection interface element  1204  is a numerical input field. However, other interface elements may also be used including, for example, a slider. 
     After an authenticated entity has input a date and amount, the selectable option  1206  to issue a future-dated borrowed resource reservation request may be used to issue the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request to set aside the amount of borrowed resources for the specified date. 
     Referring again to  FIG. 11 , at operation  1104 , the server  160  receives, via the communications module and from the client device, a signal representing a future-dated borrowed resource reservation request. The future-dated borrowed resource reservation request is associated with an amount of borrowed resources to set aside and a date of release of such borrowed resources. For example, in at least some embodiments, the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request may include the amount (e.g., the amount input at the client device through the amount selection interface element  1204 ) and/or the date (e.g., the date input at the client device through the date selection interface element  1202 ). The future-dated borrowed resource reservation request may be a request to set aside at least a portion of a credit limit or line of credit for use on the specified date. 
     Next, at an operation  1106 , the server  160  may evaluate the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request based on a current amount of borrowed resources. 
     In at least some embodiments, the server  160  may attempt to track the current amount of a borrowed resource balance in real-time or near real-time. For example, the server  160  may determine an estimate of the current amount of borrowed resources by adjusting an opening amount of available resources to account for intraday transfers completed. As noted above, the server  160  may, in at least some embodiments, provide a running total resource indicator  634  and/or a current running total resource indicator  692  for display on one or more of the interfaces. In order to do so, the server may adjust an opening balance (i.e., the balance at the beginning of the day) in order to account for any transfers during the day. For example, the opening balance may be adjusted to account for pending and/or posted transactions. When the adjusted balance indicates a negative number, this may signify that borrowed resources are currently being used since all owned resources have been used. 
     Accordingly, the server may determine an estimate of the current amount of borrowed resources at any given time during the course of the day. For example, the server may determine at estimate at or around the time the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request is received. The server may then, at operation  1106 , evaluate the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request based on the estimate of the current amount of borrowed resources. The evaluation may, for example, include determining whether the estimate of the current amount of borrowed resources is sufficient to allow for setting aside of the specified amount of borrowed resources (e.g., if the estimate of the current amount of borrowed resources is greater than or equal to the amount associated with the request received at operation  1104 ). 
     When the evaluation of the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request based on the estimate of the current amount of borrowed resources indicates that the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request cannot be implemented, the server  160  may generate an error (operation  1107 ). For example, the server  160  may send an error message, via the communications module, to a computing device such as, for example, the client device. For example, the intraday transfer interface may be updated with or based on the error message. 
     The error message may cause the computing device to include a selectable option to, for example, vary the specified amount. For example, an amount selected interface element  1204  may again be displayed. In at least some embodiments, the amount selected interface element  1204  may be configured to default to the estimated current amount of borrowed resources. The server may then receive a further future-dated borrowed resource reservation request (e.g., another iteration of operation  1104  may be performed). 
     When the evaluation of the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request based on the estimate of the current amount of borrowed resources indicates that the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request can be implemented based on the estimated current amount of borrowed resources, the server  160  may, at operation  1108 , implement the request. For example, the server may store a retention instruction in memory. The retention instruction may operate to reserve and/or attempt to reserve, the specified amount of borrowed resources for the specified date. Accordingly, the retention instruction may include both the reserved amount and the date of release. 
     The retention instruction may be implemented by, for example, updating the reserved borrowed resource amount  466  ( FIG. 4 ) in memory. When various user interface screens are displayed, they may be displayed in a manner that indicates that the reserved amount is unavailable if they are displayed prior to the date of release. For example, the example intraday resource availability interface  600  described above with reference to  FIGS. 6 to 8  may be updated to reflect the reservation. By way of example, various indicators that are displayed on the intraday resource availability interface  600  may be updated due to the reservation. For example, the reserved resource indicator  622  may be updated to reflect a higher amount of reserved resources due to the future-dated reservation. Other indicators that depend on the amount of borrowed resources available may also be updated. 
     While the retention instruction is in effect, the server  160  may prevent use of the associated borrowed resources. For example, the server may, at some time while the retention instruction is in effect, receive, via the communications module and from the client device, a signal representing an instruction to process a transfer. In response, the server may determine whether processing the transfer would violate the retention instruction. For example, the server may determine whether sufficient resources are available to process the transfer without having to use the resources reserved by the retention instruction. In response to determining that processing the transfer would violate the retention instruction, the server generates an error. For example, the server may send an error message, via the communications module, to a computing device such as the client device. The error message may, for example, indicate that the transfer cannot be completed and/or may provide a selectable option to remove or vary the retention instruction. 
     In implementing the request, the server  160  may track the date associated with the request so that, on that date, the reserved borrowed resources will be released. After the resources are released, transfers will again be permitted to use the associated resources. Furthermore, in implementing the request, the server may also, on the date associated with the request, update any of the indicators on the intraday resource availability interface  600  that rely upon the amount of borrowed resources that have been reserved. For example, reserved resource indicator  622  may be updated to reflect a higher amount of available borrowed resources due to the release of the future-dated reservation. 
     As noted above, in some scenarios, the setting aside of borrowed resources may be complicated since balances, such as the first storage location balance  420  and the second storage location balance  440  and the borrowed resource balance  464  may only be determined with absolute certainty when a batch reconciliation process is completed and the batch reconciliation process may only be completed at certain periods throughout the day; for example, at the end of the day. In such scenarios, it may be that a future-dated borrowed resources reservation request may appear to be a request that may be implemented at the time when it is received, but it may be that, once such reconciliation occurs, the request can no longer implemented. Accordingly, in at least some embodiments, the server  160  may evaluate the request in response to a trigger condition. 
     For example, the server may, at operation  1110 , detect a trigger condition and may, in response, evaluate (at operation  1106 ) the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request based on a current amount of borrowed resources. 
     The trigger condition may, for example, be an end-of-day reconciliation of resource tracking data. That is, after a reconciliation of ledgers identifying available resources has been performed to account for all transfers occurring during the day (e.g., all settled transactions), the trigger condition may be said to have occurred. The trigger condition may, for example, be said to have occurred after the batch processing is performed on the day in which the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request has been received. That is, on the date the request is received, the server may wait until after the end-of-day reconciliation has been performed in order to evaluate (or re-evaluate in instances where operation  1106  has already been performed based on an estimate) the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request based on the current amount of borrowed resources. The current amount of borrowed resources used for the evaluation is the amount of borrowed resources available following the reconciliation. 
     The server may, for example, determine (at operation  1106 ) that the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request cannot be implemented when the resource tracking data (which is the data reflecting a current amount of borrowed resources available following the reconciliation) indicates that the current amount of borrowed resources is less than the specified amount of borrowed resources. 
     When the evaluation of the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request indicates that the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request cannot be implemented based on the current amount of borrowed resources, the server  160  may perform operation  1107  as described above and, more particularly, generate an error by sending an error message, via the communications module, to a computing device such as the client device from which the request was received at operation  1104 . 
     When the evaluation of the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request indicates that the future-dated borrowed resource reservation request can be implemented based on the current amount of borrowed resources, the server  160  may perform operation  1108  as described above. 
     Other trigger conditions may be used instead of or in addition to the trigger condition noted above. For example, in at least some embodiments, detecting the trigger condition may include detecting an end-of-day reconciliation of resource tracking data performed on a day immediately prior to the date of the release. That is, the day before the resources are scheduled to be released, the request may be evaluated to ensure that the resources can, in fact, be released as scheduled. 
     By way of further example, detecting a trigger condition may include determining that the current date is the specified date for the request/retention instruction. That is, when the date on which the resources are scheduled to be released occurs, the server  160  may evaluate the request again to ensure that it may be implemented. 
     Transfers, which may also be referred to as transactions or electronic transfers may pass through numerous computer systems during processing. For example, in some instances intermediary or correspondent banking servers may facilitate transactions. For example, an intermediary bank may be used when a transfer is being made between accounts associated with two banks that do not have a relationship with one another. 
     Furthermore, even internally at a particular bank, various servers may be engaged in order to process a transfer. Given the numerous computer systems that may be involved in processing a transfer, it can be difficult for a transferring party who configured a transfer to communicate with a system that is currently processing the transfer. 
     An interface, which may be referred to as a user interface or input interface, may be configured to provide real-time or near real-time tracking of transfer processing. Conveniently, the interface may provide such tracking even though the transfer may pass through numerous systems during processing. For example, the systems which the transfer passes through may include both internal and external systems and the interface may track the transfer both internally and externally. Accordingly, status of a transfer may be instantly tracked even though the transfer may pass through numerous systems which are at geographically disparate locations. 
     Further, the interface may allow a user to communicate directly with a current processing system. For example, a user may be able to send an electronic notification to a system that is currently processing the transfer. 
     Since some processing stages of a transaction may be completed almost instantly, the real-time or near real-time tracking of transfer processing ensures that the data provided on the user interface is current. This avoids, for example, a user issuing notifications to a system that is no longer handling a transfer. 
     Reference will now be made to  FIG. 13  which illustrates a display screen  1300  of an example transfer interface. The display screen  1300  may be displayed on a client device  150 . The transfer interface may be provided as part of the intraday resource availability interface  600  described above with reference to  FIGS. 6 to 8 . Accordingly, the intraday resource availability interface  600  may also be referred to as a transfer interface. 
     In some implementations, a display screen  700  such as that displayed above with reference to  FIG. 7  may list a plurality of transfers undergoing processing. The display screen  700  of the transfer interface may include one or more interface elements for selecting one or more of the transfers in the plurality of transfers displayed thereon and the display screen  1300  of  FIG. 13  may be displayed in response to receiving a selection of a particular transfer. 
     The example display screen  1300  of  FIG. 13  identifies a plurality of processing operations in a series of processing operations. The series of processing operations are processing operations that are performed on the transfer in order to process the transfer. The display screen identifies one of the processing operations in the series as a current processing operation. In the example illustrated, the series of processing operations that are identified include a blacklist check operation which is identified by a blacklist check indicator  1306 . The blacklist check operation is an operation in which a processor evaluates whether completing the transfer would violate a blacklist. The blacklist may, for example, be a sanctions blacklist which identifies various parties and/or accounts to which transfers are prohibited due to a sanction. Other control checks may be performed instead of or in addition to the blacklist check. For example, anti-money laundering analysis may be performed on a transfer to determine whether completion of the transfer would violate anti-money laundering (AML) rules defined in a system and/or a fraudulent transfer analysis may be performed on the transfer to determine whether the transfer appears to be fraudulent. 
     The blacklist check may, instead, be referred to as an AML check or screening, a sanctions check or screening, a control check or screening, and/or a fraud check or screening. 
     In the example, after the blacklist check is a format check represented by a format check indicator  1308 . The format check may be referred to, for example, as a straight through processing (STP) check. The format check may indicate whether the transfer is in a format that will allow straight through processing to be completed. Some transfers may arrive at the server  160  by way of an electronic message, such as a SWIFT message. Since SWIFT messages are free format messages (in the sense that the SWIFT network will allow such messages to be sent even if they do not contain all data necessary to complete a transfer), it is possible that a message representing a transfer may be received that does not include sufficient data to allow processing of the transfer to be completed. By way of example, certain required information may be omitted from the transfer message. The format check may evaluate whether the message includes required data. When the message does not include all such data, the server  160  may attempt to automatically repair the message. For example, the server may rely on stored data representing past transfers to infer certain missing data. 
     In the example, after the format check is a transferor resource check which is represented by a transferor resource indicator  1310 . The transferor resource check is a resource check for a transferor. Such a check may be performed by querying a database to identify available resources for a transferor. More specifically, the transferor resource check may ensure that the transferor has sufficient resources to complete the transfer. 
     In the example, after the transferor resource check is a financial institution resource check, represented by a financial institution resource indicator  1312 . The financial institution resource check may also be referred to as a large value transfer system (LOTS) system check. During this check, the server  160  may ensure that the financial institution itself has sufficient resources (such as credit) at a central bank, such as the Bank of Canada, in order to complete the transfer. 
     In the example, after the financial institution resource check, the control check(s) including the blacklist check may be performed again. Accordingly, a further blacklist check indicator  1314  may be displayed. The control checks may be re-performed on the transfer since the transfer may have been updated (e.g., during the format check) or since the blacklist may have changed. 
     In the example, after the further control check(s) are performed, the transfer may be cleared. A clearing status may be updated. Accordingly, a clearing status indicator  1316  may be included on the display screen  1300  to indicate whether or not the transfer has been cleared. 
     The example display screen illustrates which of the processing operations have already been performed, which of the processing operations are currently being performed and which of the processing operations still need to be performed in the future. In the example, the format check operation is highlighted with a current operation indicator to indicate that the format check operation is currently being performed. In at least some embodiments, the current processing operation is selectable to input a processing command which causes the server  160  to perform a processing operation. The processing command may be, for example, an instruction to send an electronic message to a computer system involved in performing the current processing operation. For example, an electronic message may be sent to such a system to request further details about the current processing operation (e.g., a reason as to why the processing operation is held up, information that is required in order to complete the processing operation, etc.). 
     The example display screen illustrates an order of the processing operations in the series. By indicating the current processing operation in the series, the example display screen effectively indicates which of the processing operations have already been performed and which of the processing operations still need to be performed. 
     The indicators mentioned above indicate processing operations in a series of processing operations at a particular financial institution. However, transfers may go through multiple processing institutions before completion. For example, intermediary or correspondent banks may sometimes be used to assist with a transaction. Since multiple banks may be involved, the transfer may need to undergo both internal and external processing before completion. The example display screen  1300  may provide data regarding external processing together with data regarding internal processing. Put differently, the example display screen  1300  may provide data regarding processing that is occurring at a particular bank and processing that has or needs to occur on the transfer outside of the particular bank. The server  160  may, for example, obtain external processing data from a third party server and the external processing data may be used to provide one or more indicators  1302 ,  1320  of external processing. For example, in the example display screen a first external bank indicator  1302  indicates a bank that the transfer originated at and a second external bank indicator  1320  indicates a bank that the transfer will complete at. The external processing data may, therefore, include hop information about various banks that are involved in processing the transfer and the display screen  1300  may be prepared based on the hop information. By way of example, the hop information may indicate one or more of: a number of hops of a message, a fee at one or more of the hops, and an exchange rate applied at one or more of the hops. The display screen  1300  is generated to illustrate a present bank&#39;s order in a list of banks involved in processing a transfer (i.e., the position of the bank associated with the server  160  relative to other servers, systems or institutions processing the same transfer). 
     Referring now to  FIG. 14 , a flowchart showing example operations performed by a server  160  is illustrated. The operations may be included in a method  1400  which may be performed by the server  160 . For example, computer-executable instructions stored in memory of the server  160  may, when executed by a processor of the server  160 , configure the server  160  to perform the method  1400  or a portion thereof. 
     At operation  1402 , the server  160  receives a transfer message via a communications module. The transfer message is a message representing a request for a transfer. The transfer message may be received from a third party server  190  ( FIG. 1 ) or from a client device  150 . By way of example, the third party server  190  may be a server associated with another financial institution. The third party server  190  may be, in at least some embodiments, a SWIFT network server. The SWIFT network server may relay messages between computer systems. The transfer message may be a SWIFT message. SWIFT messages are messages in which certain information that is required for processing a transfer may be omitted. Since required information may be omitted, SWIFT messages may be considered free format messages. 
     The transfer message includes metadata such as, for example, an identifier of a recipient bank, contact information of a recipient bank, a recipient&#39;s bank account number, a recipient&#39;s name, a recipient&#39;s address, a routing number. The transfer message may be, for example, a SWIFT message formatted according to the MT103 format type. 
     The transfer message may, in some instances, be received from a client device. More specifically, the client device may configure the transfer message by inputting the metadata for the transfer message. 
     In some instances, after the transfer message is received, the server  160  may obtain (at operation  1404 ) additional information from a third party server  190  about the transfer message. For example, a third party server  190  associated with a transfer network such as the SWIFT network may provide an interface, such as an application programming interface, that allows the server  160  to obtain external processing data for the transfer message. The external processing data may, for example, indicate hop information for the message. For example, the hop information may identify other banks that have been or will be involved in processing the message. By way of further example, the hop information may indicate one or more of: a number of hops of a message, a fee at one or more of the hops, and an exchange rate applied at one or more of the hops. The hop information may provide the server  160  with information about processing that has or will occur at other computing systems apart from the server. For example, the exchange rate or other fees applied by another bank that was or will be involved in the transfer may be provided to the server. Additionally, the hop information allows the server to know its own order within a list of systems involved in processing a transfer. That is, the server may use the hop information to determine whether the transfer has already passed through other banks and/or whether the transfer will have to pass through other banks. 
     Obtaining the external processing data may include, for example, sending, via the communications module and to a third party server, a request for external processing data associated with the message. The request may be, for example, an API call or an electronic communication of another type. The request includes identifying information which may be obtained from the transfer message. In response to sending the request, the server  160  then receives, via the communications module and from the third party server, the external processing data associated with the message. The server  160  may, at operation  1406 , store the external processing data in memory, for example. 
     After the transfer message is received, the server  160  may process the transfer. More specifically, the server  160  may perform (at operation  1408 ) a series of automated processing operations (which may also be referred to as automated processing steps) on the message. The automated processing operations may, for example, include at least a first processing operation and a second processing operation. The automated processing operations may correspond to those discussed above with reference to the display screen  1300  of  FIG. 13 . Each of the processing operations are computer-based operations which are performed automatically on the message. 
     Referring now to  FIG. 15 , an example series of processing operations  1500  that may be performed by the server  160  will now be discussed. The series of processing operations may be performed by the server during operation  1408  of the method  1400 . After each of the operations in the series, the server  160  may update stage state data in memory to indicate that a particular processing operation has been completed and/or that a next processing operation is being performed. 
     At operation  1502 , the server  160  performs a blacklist check or, more generally, a control check. For example, the server  160  may compare data in the message to a blacklist. The blacklist may, for example indicate one or more entities or countries to which transfers are not permitted. By way of example, the blacklist may include one or more entities or countries on a sanctions list. The blacklist check and control check are referred to in greater detail above with reference to the discussion of the blacklist check indicator  1306  of  FIG. 13 . The message may be determined to have failed the blacklist the blacklist check when data in the message corresponds to an entry in the blacklist. 
     Next, at an operation  1504 , the server  160  may perform a formatting check on the message. As noted above, the transfer message may be a free format message in which certain requisite information may be omitted. At operation  1504 , the server may evaluate whether the message includes required data. If the message does not include such required data, the message may be determined to have failed the formatting check. In at least some embodiments, during the formatting check, the server may attempt to repair a message that is incomplete. The formatting check is described in greater detail above with reference to the format check indicator  1308  of the display screen  1300  of  FIG. 13 . 
     Next, at an operation  1506 , the server  160  may perform a transferor resource check operation. The transferor resource check may be performed as described above with reference to the discussion of the transferor resource indicator  1310  of the display screen  1300  of  FIG. 13 . For example, the server may perform the resource check for the transferor by querying a database to identify available resources for the transferor. The message may be determined to have failed the transferor resource check when the transferor is determined to have insufficient resources to complete the transfer. 
     Next, at an operation  1508 , the server may perform a bank resource check. This check may be performed as described above with reference to the discussion of the financial institution resource indicator  1312  of the display screen  1300  of  FIG. 13 . The message may be determined to have failed the bank resource check when the financial institution associated with the server  160  has insufficient resources for completion of the transfer. 
     Next, at an operation  1510 , the server may again perform a control check, such as a blacklist check. This check may be performed in the same or a similar manner as at operation  1502 . This secondary blacklist check is performed in case the blacklist has been modified during the subsequent processing operations or in case additional detail added to the message during the formatting check (operation  1504 ) would make the message non-compliant with a control. 
     Next, at operation  1512 , a clearing status check may be performed. That is, after the prior checks are satisfactorily performed, the server  160  may process the transfer. In doing so, the server  160  may monitor a clearing status in order to determine whether or not the transfer has yet cleared. 
     After the transaction has cleared, the server  160  may send a message to a third party server  190 , such as a server associated with the SWIFT network to update a clearing status at the SWIFT network. That is, the server  160  may inform the SWIFT network that the transfer has now cleared. 
     At each processing operation in the series of processing operations, control will only proceed to a next processing operation when prior processing operations have been completed. That is, the processing operations are performed in a serial manner. Some operations may complete processing almost instantly. Some messages may, however, get held up at a given processing stage for a lengthy period of time. 
     Message processing at each of the various operations  1502 - 1514  in the series of operations may vary and the server  160  may address processing failures differently depending upon which of the operations are being performed. For example, for certain operations (such as the blacklist check and/or formatting check), when a message fails processing, a notification may be sent to an administrator device. The administrator device may include controls for inputting a release command to the server  160  which may be treated by the server as an instruction to treat the message as having passed the check. Some operations (e.g., the various resource checks) may not be controlled with such a release command. Instead, when a check is determined to have failed, the server may continue to re-evaluate the message to determine if conditions have changed such that the message no longer fails the check. For example, a transferor resource check which initially failed because the transferor had insufficient funds may be passed when the transferor replenishes funds. 
     An example processing operation  1600  is illustrated in  FIG. 16 . The processing operation may be one of the processing operations in the series of processing operations  1500  of  FIG. 15 . At operation  1602 , the server  160  evaluates the message based on defined criteria to determine whether the message passes the processing operation or fails the processing operation. The processing criteria is, as described above with reference to  FIGS. 13 and 15 . For example, the control check criteria may involve a comparison of message contents to a blacklist. 
     When the message passes the processing operation (as illustrated at operation  1604 ), control flow may proceed to operation  1612  where a next processing operation is initiated. The server  160  may also update (operation  1614 ) stage state data to reflect the fact that the processing operation has been successfully completed and that control flow has proceeded to the next operation. 
     When the message fails the processing operation, the server  160  may, at operation  1606 , send, via the communications module, a notification to an administrator device. The administrator device that is notified may be a device that is specifically associated with the processing operation being performed. As noted above, the administrator device may include controls for inputting a release command to the server  160  and so a release command may be received at operation  1608 . Upon receiving the release command from the administrator device, the server may determine that the message has passed the first processing operation (operation  1610 ). Then, control flow may proceed to operations  1612  and/or  1614 . That is, the server may initiate the second processing operation for the message and update stage state data stored in the memory to reflect that the second processing operation has been initiated. 
     As noted above, not all processing operations may be cleared through input of a release command at an administrator device. An example of one such processing operation  1700  is illustrated in  FIG. 17 . 
     The processing operation  1700  may be one of the processing operations in the series of processing operations  1500  of  FIG. 15 . At operation  1702  the server  160  may evaluate the message based on defined criteria to determine whether the message passes the processing operation or fails the processing operation. The processing criteria is, as described above with reference to  FIGS. 13 and 15 . For example, the transferor resource check may involve a ensuring that a transferor has sufficient resources for the transfer. 
     When the message passes the processing operation (as illustrated at operation  1704 ), control flow may proceed to operation  1708  where a next processing operation is initiated. The server  160  may also update (operation  1710 ) stage state data to reflect the fact that the processing operation has been successfully completed and that control flow has proceeded to the next operation. 
     When the message fails the processing operation, the server  160  may continue to re-evaluate the message (operation  1706 ) until it is determined (operation  1704 ) that the message has passed the processing operation. Accordingly, the server may repeatedly re-evaluate the message based on the defined criteria until the message is determined to have passed the processing operation and, when the message is determined to have passed the processing operation, the server may then initiate a next processing operation for the message and may again update the stage state data stored in the memory to reflect that the next processing operation has been initiated. 
     Referring again to  FIG. 14 , while the series of automated processing operations  1500  ( FIG. 15 ) are being performed, a client device  150  operated by an entity associated with the transfer to which the message relates may obtain real-time status updates about the progress of the processing operations. The computing systems may utilize the techniques herein to obtain current information even though some processing operations may be completed almost instantly. Further, the computing systems allow real-time status information to be obtained even though processing operations may be performed in a distributed manner. Additionally or alternatively, an interface may be provided which allows an operator of a client device to provide an instruction directly to a computer system that is currently performing a processing operation on a message. 
     Accordingly, while the series of automated processing operations are being performed (operation  1408 ), the server  160  may receive a request from a client device associated with an authenticated entity (e.g., who has authenticated themselves to the server in the manner described above with reference to operation  501  of the method  500  of  FIG. 5 ). At operation  1410  of the method  1400 , the server  160  provides a transfer interface to the client device. Accordingly, while the series of automated processing operations are being performed, the server may provide, via the communications module and to the client device associated with an authenticated entity, a transfer interface. The transfer interface may, for example, be or include a display screen listing a plurality of transfers (see, e.g.,  FIG. 7 ). The transfer interface may include an interface element for selecting one of the transfers. That is, the displayed transfers may be selectable via an input interface of the client device and selection may cause a transfer detail display to be output at the client device (for example, a display screen  1300  of the type described with reference to  FIG. 13 ). 
     Accordingly, while the series of automated processing operations are being performed, the server  160  may, at operation  1412 , receive, via the communications module, an indication of a selection of one of the transfers. The indication is sent by the client device when the interface element for selecting the transfer is activated. At operation  1414 , in response to receiving the indication of the selection, the server  160  may retrieve stage state data from memory. The stage state data is the data stored by the server as it processes the various processing operations. The stage state data indicates a current one of the automated processing operations in the series. 
     Additionally or alternatively, the server may, at operation  1414 , retrieve the external processing data which indicates, for example, hop information for the message. 
     Next, at operation  1416 , the server may update the transfer interface. For example, the server  160  may send, to the client device, an indication of the stage state data. The client device may be configured to update the transfer interface in response to receiving the indication to display a representation of the series of automated processing operations which identifies one of the processing operations in the series as a current processing operation. By way of example, the server may, in response to receiving the indication, display a display screen  1300  of the type described with reference to  FIG. 13 . 
     The communication sent at operation  1416  may additionally or alternatively include an external processing indication based on the external processing data. The client device may be configured to update the transfer interface based on the external processing indication. By way of example, the server may, in response to receiving the external processing indication, display a display screen  1300  of the type described with reference to  FIG. 13 . 
     In at least some embodiments, the display screen  1300  may be dynamically updated by the server. More particularly, the server  160  may monitor for changes in the stage state data and, when a change is detected (operation  1418 ), may update the transfer interface (operation  1420 ). For example, when control proceeds to the next processing operation, the display screen  1300  may be automatically updated so that the current processing operation is reflected. 
     In some instances, the current processing operation in the transfer interface is selectable to input a processing command. The processing command may, for example, be a command to request input of a release command. 
     Accordingly, at operation  1422 , the server  160  may receive an indication of the processing command and may, at operation  1424 , perform a processing operation associated with the message based on the processing command. The processing operation may, for example, involve sending a notification to an administrator device associated with the current processing operation. 
     Referring now to  FIG. 18 , a flowchart showing example operations performed by a server  160  is illustrated. The operations may be included in a method  1800  which may be performed by the server  160 . For example, computer-executable instructions stored in memory of the server  160  may, when executed by a processor of the server  160 , configure the server  160  to perform the method  1800  or a portion thereof. 
     At operation  1802 , the server  160  receives an electronic message indicating an expected transfer. The message indicates at least a quantity of resources associated with the expected transfer and a value date associated with the expected transfer. The message may include other metadata such as, for example, an account identifier, a transaction reference number, a currency code, an identifier of an ordering party, an identifier of an ordering institution, or an identifier of an intermediary. 
     The electronic message may be received from a third party server  190  ( FIG. 1 ) or from a client device  150 . By way of example, the third party server  190  may be a server associated with another financial institution. The third party server  190  may be, in at least some embodiments, a SWIFT network server. The SWIFT network server may relay messages between computer systems. The electronic message may be a SWIFT message. In at least some embodiments, the electronic message may be a SWIFT formatted MT210 message. The electronic message may, for example, be referred to as a notice-to-receive message. 
     The electronic message is a message that is sent to the server  160  to indicate, to the server  160 , that a transfer of a defined quantity of resources is scheduled to occur on the value date specified in the electronic message. 
     After receiving the electronic message indicating the expected transfer, the server  160  may begin monitoring for the expected transfer. For example, the server  160  may, at operation  1804 , match one or more received transfers to one or more expected transfers. The expected transfers are transfers for which an electronic message indicating an expected transfer has been received (e.g., for which a notice-to-receive message has been received). The received transfers are transfers that have been received. That is, the received transfers may be completed transfers. A transfer may be said to have been completed when a quantity of resources for the transfer has been received. For example, a transfer may be said to have been completed when the transfer has cleared and has been credited to a recipient&#39;s account. 
     During the matching of operation  1804 , the server may determine whether any yet-unmatched received transfers correspond to an expected transfer. The matching may be performed based on, for example, the electronic message(s) indicating the expected transfer(s). For example, the matching may be performed based on the amounts of the expected transfers and the amounts of the received transfers. For example, such electronic messages may define a quantity of resources expected to be transferred and the quantity of resources may be used at operation  1804  during the matching. For example, if a received transfer is of an amount that corresponds to a quantity of resources defined in an electronic message indicating an expected transfer, then the server may determine that the received transfer matches the expected transfer; that is, that the received transfer corresponds to that expected transfer in the sense that the received transfer represents the completion of the expected transfer. 
     Other criteria may be used in the matching operation instead of or in addition to the quantity of resources. For example, the matching operation may use a transaction reference number, and/or an identifier or an ordering party, ordering institution and/or intermediary. 
     When a match is made (at operation  1804 ), at operation  1806 , the server may then mark the expected transfer associated with the transfer as being complete. In doing so, the server keeps a running list of expected transfer that are not yet complete. These may be referred to as pending expected transfers. 
     The server  160  may be configured to monitor for occurrence of a trigger condition (operation  1808 ) associated with the expected transfer and, in response to detecting the trigger condition, may then determine (at operation  1810 ) whether a transfer associated with the expected transfer has been made. For example, the server may, upon detecting the trigger condition, determine whether one or more expected transfers for the present day have completed (i.e., whether transfers having a value date matching the present date have been completed). 
     The trigger condition may, for example, be a defined time on the value date. That is, the trigger condition may occur when a present time of day passes the defined time on the value date. The defined time may, for example, be a time that is associated with a close-of-business (i.e., it may be a “close-of-business time”). The close-of-business time may be the last time during a day when a transfer may be effected. That is, if the transfer has not arrived by the close of business on a given day, then the soonest time at which it could arrive would be a time after an open-for-business time on a subsequent day. The close of business time may, for example, be 5 pm. 
     Where the close-of-business time is used as the trigger condition, the server may, upon detecting the close-of-business time, determine whether any transfers that were expected to be received on the present date (e.g., since an electronic message indicated the present date as the value date for such transfers), were not, in fact, received. 
     Other trigger conditions may be used instead of or in addition to the close-of-business time. For example, in some implementations, a user-defined time may be used as the trigger condition. The user-defined time may be, for example, a time that is near the close-of-business time but before the close-of-business time. By way of example, in some implementations, a user may define, using an input interface of a client device, a time that is to be used as a trigger condition for expected transfers associated with that user. The client device may send the defined time to the server where it is stored and used at operation  1808 . The defined time may be an absolute time (e.g., the user may specify a fixed time such as 2 pm) or the defined time may be a relative time (e.g., the user may specify an amount of time prior to a close-of-business time such as, for example, 2 hours prior to the close-of-business time). In some instances, the user may define a trigger condition that may be used for all expected transfers. For example, the user may specify that 2 pm is to act as a trigger condition for all expected transfers. Additionally or alternatively, in some implementations, the user may define a trigger condition that is to be used for a particular expected transfer. For example, the server  160  may provide, to the client device, a list of expected transfers and the user may operate the client device to select one or more of the expected transfers and define a trigger condition for such transfers. The client device may send the server the defined trigger condition and the server may associate that trigger condition with the selected one or more of the expected transfers so that the defined trigger condition is only used for such expected transfers. Accordingly, in at least some implementations, a first expected transfer may have a different trigger condition than a second expected transfer. 
     Further, in some implementations, multiple trigger conditions may be used for a single expected transfer. For example, a first trigger condition may be associated with a first time and a second trigger condition may be associated with a second time that is different than the first time. For example, in one implementation the first time may be prior to a close-of-business time and the second time may be the close-of-business time. 
     In implementations in which operations  1804  and  1806  are performed such that the server  160  keeps an up-to-date list of all pending expected transfers (i.e., all transfers that have not yet been completed), then the determination of whether the transfer has yet been made may be performed based on the list of pending expected transfers. That is, determining whether the transfer associated with the expected transfer has been made may include determining whether the expected transfer has been marked as complete. Where the trigger condition is associated with a particular expected transfer (e.g., where a user has defined a trigger time for a particular one of the expected transfers that is not to apply to others of the expected transfers), determining whether the transfer associated with the expected transfer has been made may include determining whether the transfer associated with that expected transfer has been made. Where the trigger condition is associated with all expected transfers, determining whether the transfer has been made may include determining whether there are any pending expected transfers having a value date matching the current date. 
     In some implementations, operations  1804  and  1806  may not be performed prior to the occurrence of the trigger condition. Instead, one or more of such operations may be performed as part of operation  1810 . For example, in response to detecting the trigger condition, the server may then attempt to match one or more received transfers to one or more expected transfers in order to determine whether one or more expected transfers have been made. 
     In response to determining that one or more expected transfers expected to occur on the present day have not yet been made, at operation  1812 , the server  160  may provide a notification to a client device associated with a recipient of the expected transfer. The notification may, for example, be sent to the client device via the communications module. The notification may, for example, be sent as an electronic message. The notification may, for example, identify the expected transfer(s) that are to be completed on the present date that have not yet been completed. In some implementations in which the trigger condition is associated with a particular expected transfer, the notification may identify the expected transfer. By way of example, the notification may state “Transfer  125315212  has a value date of today and has not yet been completed.” 
     In at least some implementations, the notification may be associated with an intraday resource availability interface  600 . For example, in at least some implementations, the notification may be or include a link to an intraday resource availability interface  600 , such as an intraday resource availability interface  600  described above (see, e.g.,  FIG. 6, 7, 8 ). The link may be activated using the client device to retrieve the intraday resource availability interface  600  ( FIG. 6, 7, 8 ). For example, a transaction status display screen of the resource availability interface  600  which lists a plurality of transactions/transfers and their associated status (e.g., pending, complete, overdue, etc.) may be displayed upon activation of the link. In at least some embodiments, the one or more transfers that were associated with the notification (i.e., the transfers expected to occur on the present day that have not yet been made) may be automatically highlighted or selected on the transaction status display screen upon activation of the link. For example, such transfers may be highlighted so as to be more prominent than other transfers. Such highlighting may include, for example, displaying such transfers with a different font color, background color, font, etc., or adding a border or other graphical indicator around or near such transfers on the transaction status display screen. 
     In some implementations, the notification may be provided directly within the intraday resource availability interface  600 . For example, when the notification is provided, at operation  1812 , the client device may be displaying a display screen of the intraday resource availability interface  600  and the notification may be provided by updating the display screen. For example, if the transaction status display screen described above is displayed when the notification is provided, the transaction status display screen may be updated to highlight the transfer(s) associated with the notification. Such highlighting may be performed as described in the paragraph above. 
     In at least some implementations, the notification may include or provide access to a selectable option to cancel the expected transfer. By way of example, the notification may include a button or a link which may be selected using an input interface of the client device in order to cause the client device to send an indication of an intent to cancel the expected transfer to the server. In response to receiving such an indication, the server may cancel the expected transfer. Cancelling the expected transfer means that the server no longer treats the expected transfer as being “expected”. For example, the expected transfer may be removed from a list of pending expected transfers. Cancelling the expected transfer may, therefore, cause the server to cease further attempts to match the expected transfer with received transfers. By way of further example, in some embodiments, such as may be discussed below with reference to  FIG. 19 , the server may be configured to use the pending expected transfers in order to make automated processing decisions. For example, the server may determine whether to allow for the borrowing of resources by the recipient associated with the expected transfer(s) in the list based, in part, on the expected transfer(s) in that list. For example, the server may allow for greater borrowing of resources if expected transfers are included in the list than if no expected transfers are included in the list. For example, the server may use the expected transfers for forecasting purposes such as, for example, to determine an expected quantity of resources available at a defined future time. In at least some such embodiments, cancelling an expected transfer may include adjusting the expected quantity of resources at the defined future time based on the cancelled expected transfer. That is, the expected transfer may be backed out of the forecasting. 
     In some implementations, the notification may include or provide access to a selectable option to define a new value date for the expected transfer. The new value date may be a date in the future. When a client device instructs the server to re-define the value date, the server may push monitoring for completion of the expected transfer forward to that new value date. For example, when the trigger condition occurs on the newly-defined date, the server may again re-perform operation  1810  and, if needed, operation  1812 , with respect to that expected transfer. 
     Referring now to  FIG. 19 , a flowchart showing example operations performed by a server  160  is illustrated. The operations may be included in a method  1900  which may be performed by the server  160 . For example, computer-executable instructions stored in memory of the server  160  may, when executed by a processor of the server  160 , configure the server  160  to perform the method  1900  or a portion thereof. The method  1900  or a portion thereof may be performed together with other methods described herein or portions thereof, including, for example, the method  1800  of  FIG. 18 . For example, the operations  1810  and  1812  of the method  1800  may be performed together with the operations  1902  to  1912  of the method  1900 . 
     The method  1900  includes some operations that correspond to those already discussed above with reference to the method  1800  of  FIG. 18 . For example, operations  1902 ,  1904  and  1906  may be performed in the manner described above with reference to operations  1802 ,  1804  and  1806  respectively. The operations  1902  to  1906  may be performed to, for example, maintain an up-to-date list of expected transfers not yet completed. 
     At operation  1908 , the method  1900  includes determining an expected quantity of resources available at a defined future time. That is, the server may forecast a future amount of resources, such a future balance. The future time that is associated with such a forecast may be, for example, a future date or, in some implementations, a future time on a current date. 
     Such forecasting may be made based on, for example, the expected transfers. For example, the server may determine the expected quantity of resources available at the defined future time by adjusting a current quantity of resources available (e.g., a current balance) to account for one or more of the expected transfers having associated value dates on or before the defined future time that have not yet been marked as complete. For example, the balance may be adjusted by adding an amount of resources associated with such expected transfers. 
     At operation  1910 , the server may automatically determine an amount of borrowed resources to be provided to a recipient of the expected transfer based on the determined expected quantity of resources available at the defined future time. That is, the server may make an automated decision to allow a recipient of the expected transfers to borrow resources based on expected transfers. For example, a recipient having expected transfers may be permitted to borrow a greater quantity of resources than they would otherwise be permitted to borrow if they did not have any expected resources. Both the time and quantity of resources associated with the pending expected transfers may be considered in making such automated lending decisions. 
     Then, at operation  1912 , the server may allow the recipient of the expected transfers to access the amount of the borrowed resources. For example, the server may allow an external transfer from the recipient&#39;s account which relies upon such borrowed resources (e.g., by transferring an amount that causes the recipient&#39;s account to be fall below a balance of zero). 
     Notably, the techniques of the method  1900  of  FIG. 19  allows for instant on-the-fly lending decisions to be made. More particularly, real-time forecasting may be provided which may allow lending decisions to be made instantly. This can be particularly useful in correspondent banking where processing needs to occur very quickly and where there are often large volumes of transactions occurring throughout the course of a day. 
     Various techniques through which the server may provide a notification to a client device have been described herein. In some implementations, other notification techniques may be used instead of or in addition to the notification techniques described herein. By way of example, the intraday resource availability interface  600  may be configured to accept input (received at the client device) which allows a user to configure notifications or alerts. The intraday resource availability interface  600  may allow a user to define a condition that is to be associated with a notification or alert. By way of example, some types of alerts that the intraday resource availability interface  600  may be configured to accept may include: when a trendline is approaching or exceeding a benchmark defined by a user (e.g., if a balance for an account is approaching a balance that is defined by the user); when an earmark or reserve processing condition expires, when a particular transfer that has been earmarked has been received and/or processed, when a particular portion (which may be defined as a percentage by the user, for example) of borrowed resources available (e.g., a particular portion of a credit line) has been used up, etc. Configuration parameters associated with the user-defined condition may be sent to the server and the server may then monitor for the condition associated with the rule and may generate the alert/notification when the condition associated with the rule is detected. The alert/notification may be output through an output interface of the client device such as, for example, a display or speaker. For example, the alert/notification may, in at least some embodiments, be generated on a displayed intraday resource availability interface  600 .
