Order Numbers

Hello,

Order numbers have now started using M as a prefix instead of L, and the numbers are back down to six digits. We will now attempt to keep the number component six digits long and increment the letter, which makes the order numbers easier to transmit and validate verbally, as they will always* be A nnn nnn. (* Apart from the L numbers that have unfortunately gone over 1000000 before we managed to complete this work, but they will soon vanish into history).

There is no significance to the L or M or other prefix letter.

Thank you

Danny Scroggins
