Hello, I''m interested in learning what folks in the Rails community do when they need to generate permanent unique numbers for tracking objects such as packing slips, inventory items, customers, employees, etc. It''s tempting to use the autogenerated id, but they''re not pretty enough for human consumption and it can be problematic having assigned ids if tables ever need
