A transaction management platform is provided that is configured to perform end-to-end tracking of transactions including messages. The messages may be tracked using universal message identifiers that are generated and associated with messages. The universal message identifiers are generated based on a message list received from a source node. A predicted path is determined for each message based on a message type for each message. The movements of a particular message are tracked by sending queries requesting message statuses to each node within the particular message's predicted path. A record associated with the particular message is updated after receiving query responses.
