values for both credit and debt in a line, this indicates transfers yet to be entered.
Using the sqlite3 database purposefully means two things:
1. Keep `ReconstructedBankStatement` view in sync with the actual statements received from your bank
by entering the incoming and outcoming bank transfers in the Credit or Debit table, respectively,
best as soon as they show up.
2. Ideally, all records in the `Balance` view must be 0 in each of debit, credit and promised
columns. If neither debit nor credit is zero in the same record, you need to make internal transfers
linking records from the `CurrentDebts` and from the `AvailableCredits` tables. Otherwise,
ensure that members make the transfers they are obligated to and return any money that is paid
too much unless the indicated purposes, if any, also refer to dues in certain future.
