## Problem
A user reported the same bank transactions appearing twice.
Investigation in prod showed this is a systematic dedup bug in the
EnableBanking sync affecting a few hundred rows across several
users/accounts.
## Root cause
The affected banks don't return a real `transaction_id`; their only id
is a **positional** `entry_reference` of the form
`{booking_date}.{index}` (e.g. `YYYY-MM-DD.0`). That field is **null the
day a transaction first appears** and only **populated on a later
sync**.
`TransactionFingerprint::for()` preferred `entry_reference` when present
and fell back to a content hash when absent. So the same transaction
produced two different fingerprints:
| | First sync (same day) | Later sync |
|---|---|---|
| `entry_reference` | `null` | `YYYY-MM-DD.0` |
| `dedup_fingerprint` | content-based | id-based |
| `external_transaction_id` | `null` | `YYYY-MM-DD.0` |
Neither the fingerprint nor the `external_transaction_id` dedup path
matched across the two syncs → duplicate row. The one-shot historical
first sync has no duplicates; the duplicates start with the daily
incremental syncs.
## Fix
Treat a positional (`^\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}\.\d+$`) `entry_reference` as "no
stable id" and fall through to the content hash, which is identical on
both syncs. Genuine `transaction_id` and non-positional
`entry_reference` keep keying exactly as before.
## Trade-off (accepted, follow-up tracked)
The positional index is also the only field that distinguishes two
genuinely-distinct same-day transactions with byte-identical content.
Falling to the content hash collapses them to one fingerprint, so only
the first is kept — a rare silent under-count. We accept it here over
the systematic duplication it fixes; **existing rows are unaffected**
(their distinct positional value is still stored in
`external_transaction_id` and caught by the fallback dedup path on
re-sync). Fixing both cases needs occurrence-aware dedup in the consumer
(a schema change) — left as a follow-up and documented in the code.
## Tests
- Regression: a positional `entry_reference` matches the same
transaction seen earlier without one.
- Boundary: non-positional references still key on `entry_reference`.
- `php artisan test
tests/Unit/Services/Banking/TransactionFingerprintTest.php` → 6 passed.
`pint` clean.
## Data cleanup (separate, after deploy)
The already-duplicated rows still need a one-off cleanup (soft-delete
the later copy per group, keeping the content-fingerprint original). It
must run **after** this fix ships, otherwise the next daily sync
re-creates them. Not included in this PR.
