Order Number not Forwarded to PayPal

[gabstero]

Hello!

Quick question. All works fine paying with PayPal Express Checkout, etc.,.
The only problem is that the order number is not forwarded to PayPal. Only the item title.

It would be very helpful to have the order number associated with my PayPal transactions (on the paypal site side) for later adding in my books, etc...

Is there a setting I am missing?

Thanks!

An estimated order number (ie: the "next" number in sequence) is supplied with Express Checkout transactions.
However, if you're using Website Payments Standard (IPN), no order number is supplied since the order number is not determined until after the notification is completed.
