When the wrapper prints, there is a request ID under the sender's name.  What is it used for or its purpose? Just naturally curious. Inquiring minds (like mine) want to know.

I don't know, but if you order a book from me, I'll print out the label and figure it out.  ; )

I believe every transaction is given a number just for the sake of keeping records.  Right? :-}

One use of the request ID is for those who use the PBS office in Georgia as their return address -- if the package somehow gets returned to "sender" (sent to the PBS office), they can use the ID to figure out the transaction, etc.

It is also a unique identifier for the transaction, so if you need to communicate with R&R, you can say it is about "Transaction 12345" rather than "The paperback version of Cat in the Hat which I sent to Joe Smith in Chicago", etc.

Cheers,
