Pulling Sales Older than 90 Days w/ getTransactions vs pulling sales with getOrders?

I originally started building my tool by pulling orders via the getOrders call. I pull the last 90 days, in 30 day increments, since 30 days is the max time frame I can pull for, and 90 days is as far back as I can go. Every order has an ebay item id, which enables me to match orders to my inventory records in my database as long as each item in the inventory has an ebay item id attached. This has worked well so far, but I noticed that getTransactions has SALE transactionTypes, and it allows for pulling data as old as 3 years. The issue is they don't all seem to have the item id of the sold item.  Am I correct in the way I am pulling orders via the trading API rather than finances API based on my needs, or is there a way I can still link older sales to items while pulling from the finances API?

 

I just want to make sure that I'm not limiting myself to only pulling the last 90 days of sales for no reason.
