                  You deploy a new server that has SQL Server 2012 installed. You need to create a table named Sales. OrderDetails on the new server. Sales.OrderDetails must meet the following requirements:
                  Write the results to a disk.

                  INSERT INTO Transactions SELECT TransactionID,AccountNumber,Amount,TransactionDate FROM inserted WHERE AccountNumber IN (SELECT AccountNumber FROM LoanAccounts UNION SELECT AccountNumber FROM SavingAccounts)) END
                  B. CREATE TRIGGER TrgValidateAccountNumber ON Transactions INSTEAD OF INSERT AS BEGIN
                  IF EXISTS (
                  SELECT AccountNumber FROM inserted EXCEPT
                  (SELECT AccountNumber FROM LoanAccounts
                  UNION SELECT AccountNumber FROM SavingAccounts))
                  BEGIN
                  ROLLBACK TRAN
                  END
                  END
                  C. CREATE TRIGGER TrgValidateAccountNumber ON Transactions INSTEAD OF INSERT AS BEGIN
                  INSERT INTO Transactions SELECT TransactionID,AccountNumber,Amount,TransactionDate FROM inserted WHERE AccountNumber IN (SELECT AccountNumber FROM LoanAccounts UNION SELECT AccountNumber FROM SavingAccounts)) END

                  BEGIN
                  ROLLBACK TRAN
