>>Just found that my current client matches transactions and income from its online transactions handler (a 3rd party) with a report produced by the online transactions handler. And guess what, they always match up.

Its the weirdest place. They get these orders from their web site into their system but they don't match that with the income stream from the payment handler, instead they match what the handler tells them with one hand with what the handler tells them with the other hand. And these people are accountants !
