TransPart is a term used in HyperMoney to describe each of the effects of a transaction. In a hypothetical transaction where Alan buys $30 of groceries for Betty:

  • Change to source - Alan loses $30
  • Change to target - the grocery store gets $30
  • Change in equity - Betty owes Alan $30

Each of these three items creates a TransPart record, with the same master transaction ID (TrxPart.ID_Trxact). Additional TransPart records may be generated to track the transaction's Topics assignments.

See HyperMoney: Flaws in Other Software#Technical_Interpretation for more explanation.
