Putting checks in the EJB's will give you much better information on
exactly what has gone wrong. Adding checks in the DB as well can't hurt,
but without the EJB checks it might be hard to know what action to take in
the face of a generic SQL

You don't want to put logic in Entity beans. Entity beans should only
serve as models for the database.
Put the logic in the Session beans that will call setBalance and any other
methods you have. You can make all those methods one atomic transaction by
declaring it in the descriptor as well.

I frequently hear this mantra repeated, and while it is largely a good
idea, I have difficulty seeing why it should be adhered to dogmatically.
There is value in being able to define side-effects of setters and
getters or minimal bean-specific business logic. As a trivial example I
