--- Comment #9 from Martin Renvoize <martin.renvoize at ptfs-europe.com> ---
First comment is that I think I prefer the term 'reconcile' to the term
'normalize'.. 

To me reconcile means to apply one action against each other to tend towards a
'happy place', i.e. apply credits against debits to work towards balance zero,
in the accounting sense... whereas normalize means to 'make the same for
comparison' so you can continue with calculations, so the accounting example
here would be to convert all accounts in various currencies into one
'normalized' currency before doing calculations upon them.

Hope that makes sense.. maybe it's just my scientific background speaking out.

Second comment is a question.. do we need to do anything logical in terms of
the order of application of credits against debits.. i.e. should it be oldest
debts first, smallest debts first, blocking debts first for example?
