Two processes, salary credit process (SCP) and interest credit process (ICP), were updating the same row of a table.
SCP credited a person's account with 1000 to increase it from 2000 to 3000 for the month's salary.
Before SCP could commit this change, ICP read the uncommitted value, added 1% interest credit of 30 to the account to make it 3030 and committed the change.
SCP whose processing was not done yet, added a further allowance of 100 to the account in lieu of employee's overtime time to make it 3130 and committed the change. So, this amount of 100 left unprocessed by ICP.
