The problem is that the transactions can end up with an essentially arbitrary ordering, and the order they clear (and even the <em>date</em> they clear) is not necessarily under my direct control.</p> <p>One answer to this is: stop caring about the ordering of your transactions! That&rsquo;s a decent answer, except that not addressing the ordering issue means that you can only ever have &ldquo;end-of-day&rdquo; consistency. This means you need a different report to reconcile the transactions.</p>
