I don't believe it is "globally" unique -- it is shared across all the
history of a particular transaction.

You can easily do that using the xaction_id with something that looks
like:
        SELECT (*) from transaction where xaction_id=AAAA and status=A

Which should retreive one and only one response (since you should only
have one 'A'ctive record).

Hopefully David Merrill will correct me if I am wrong. ;)
