.net Multiple Forms On one page issue

I have a view with multiple forms

@using (Html.BeginForm("Withdrawal", "ATMControl", FormMethod.Post, new {})) 
{
 //code   
}

@using (Html.BeginForm("Deposit", "ATMControl", FormMethod.Post, new {})) 
{
//code
}

@using (Html.BeginForm("transfer", "ATMControl", FormMethod.Post, new {})) 
{
//code
}

in my controller:

//this works
 public ActionResult Index()
        {
                SetViewBagAccounts();
                return View();
        }

//this doesnt

        [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult Withdrawal(ATMModel model)
        {
            //do your login code here
            return View();
        }

what i am trying to do is process withdrawal, deposit and transfer indiviually in this controller. i keep getting this error

The resource cannot be found.

use /ATM/Withdrawal/ if your controller name is exactly ATMController, which mean 

RouteName + Controller =RouteNameController

then 

/RouteName/ActionName

When referencing a controller by it's name, you should not include the "Controller" part of the name. For example, if your controller class is called ATMController, then you should reference it using just "ATM", like this:

@using (Html.BeginForm("Withdrawal", "ATM", FormMethod.Post, new {})) 
{
}

This will translate to the following URL: /ATM/Withdrawal

I cannot find a link at the moment to povide you with more information about why this works this way, but you should be aware that the MVC framework will implicitly include the "Controller" part of the name when determining which class is appropriate.

There is no problem using more than a Html.BeginForm() in a page.

Your code looks good, so if your controller is named ATMControlController you should not get a 404.

Try to use the BeginForm overload without the last argument, that is useless in that case.

Make also sure to build your project. It is a trivial suggestion, but it is a common mistake to save only the View (like in ASP.NET WebForms).

Please post more code for further help.
