# Transaction (External)

## Overview

Once you have the sender, funding account, and receiver details, you can continue to create a transaction to an external receiver. In general, the transactions created are external international transactions that are sent from a user in Machnet to an external receiver. There are different types of transactions and requirements for a transaction vary by type. 

Every transaction has two different flows: transaction processing(Debit) and delivery(Credit). The statuses of these two flows are different and updates on changes will be shared through webhooks.
