ABSTRACT:
A method, system, and computer instructions for using MD4 checksum to link transactions across machines. Transaction information is received, wherein transaction information comprises a checksum and topology information, and wherein the checksum serves as a unique identifier of the current transaction. A first data structure is populated with the checksum and attribute information for the current transaction. A second data structure is then populated with the checksum and topology information for the current transaction, wherein populating the second table preserves a root/parent/current transaction relationship. Preserving the root/parent/current transaction relationship allows for automatically linking a transaction to its related transactions when the transaction is uploaded from a client to a transaction database.
