Hi ,
I m facing a problem ,need your help.
I have a payment process which is called from various processes
this process posts payment of customers.in multi user environment I need to maintain the consistency means no two payments should be posted for the customer concurrently.
I was using 'for update' in table for customer but while posting through batch processes,table gets locked while i process in loop.
Please suggest any alternative.

Regards,
Navneet

Without having your model no one can help you.
What are your tables?

What exactly do you mean by

Two things won't happen at the same time - the database will always do one of them before the other one.

What situation are you trying to avoid?

Not so - this sounds like the sort of problem that can be solved without a create table statement - I reckon it's either a non-problem, or something that a bit of simple locking will fix.

The solutions are different if payments and customers are in one or two tables.
If model is in 3NF it should be in 2 tables.
