Zusammenfassung:Conflict avoidance and conflict detection and resolution methods are provided for transaction processing in a distributed computing system. For conflict avoidance, first data for a transaction is generated in a first computing system and is used in executing a dependent process for the transaction in a second computing system that is integrated with the first computing system by an asynchronous messaging system. The first data is sent to the second computing system in a first asynchronous message. The first computing system receives from the second computing system a second asynchronous message with second data that identifies when a predefined event of the transaction, dependent on the first data, is to occur. User alteration of the first data for the transaction in the first computing system is then prevented after a preconfigured time period before when the predefined event is identified to occur.
