Case 1: A local pharmacy added a software requirement to its cash register to prevent sales of more than $75 to customers owing more than $200 on their pharmacy credit card. The programmer did not fully understand the specification and created a sales limit of $500 within the program. This defect never caused a failure since no client could purchase more than $500 worth of items given that the pharmacy credit card had a limit of $400.
