Hello Acquisitions friends, Today we received our monthly Amazon statement and noticed a major change Amazon has made. On the statement they are no longer providing the order/invoice numbers that we see when we order books and that we print for our records. Instead they are listing invoices using a mix of upper and lowercase letters. We have always verified receipt and matched invoices with numbers, which Amazon's new system seemingly makes impossible. Has anyone had this happen yet and do you have suggestions on how to proceed? In part because of Amazon's lack first of packing slips and now of actual invoice numbers, we have questioned Amazon's value to us as a vendor. Years ago they provided normal paperwork and invoices; now they continue to make normal library processes difficult from a receiving and bookkeeping perspective. Thank you for your time, Michael Schillace Technical Services Norman F.
