If your system cannot respond to the JIT Funding request, the Marqeta platform makes a decision in your place based on defined business rules. The Marqeta platform stores any unsent webhooks for later transmission, ensuring that the card state and account balances on your system correspond with activity that occurred while Commando Mode was in effect. You can identify transactions that were funded while Commando Mode was in effect by examining the `subnetwork` field of the transaction record. * A `subnetwork` value of `GATEWAY_JIT` indicates that the transaction was funded through normal Gateway JIT Funding and that Commando Mode was not in effect at the time. * A value of `MANAGED_JIT` indicates that the transaction was funded while Commando Mode was in effect. In addition, the `standin_approved_by` field has a value of `COMMANDO_AUTO` or `COMMANDO_MANUAL` when Commando Mode is enabled for a transaction. When `COMMANDO_MANUAL` is configured, all transactions are processed via Commando Mode. When `COMMANDO_AUTO` is configured, Commando Mode is enabled only when a transaction times out or encounters an error. While Commando Mode is a form of Stand-in Processing (STIP), it is different than network STIP. Network STIP occurs when the card network cannot communicate with the Marqeta platform. Transactions handled by network STIP include the `standin_approved_by` field with a value of `NETWORK`. Commando Mode and Managed JIT Funding are functionally equivalent. See [About Just-in-Time Funding](/developer-guides/about-jit-funding/) for more information. **Note**\ Commando Mode requires additional configuration. To configure Commando Mode control sets, contact your Marqeta representative.

For example, a `velocity_window` of `DAY` is one calendar day starting at 00:00:00 UTC. If a Commando Mode event occurs at 11:59:59 UTC, the `DAY` window includes all transactions that occurred between 00:00:00 and 11:59:59 on that calendar day.
