Well, no, not actually. Usually true in practice though. The X12
standard is silent on your question - it only says that the transaction
set control numbers should be unique within the functional group. I
don't have the ISO 9735 spec in front of me, but I'm pretty sure EDIFACT
is the same.
That begs a question though - why do you care which is the most recent?
