Ref Field Constraint

We work with A LOT of different systems and run into all kinds of crazy stuff. Feel free to email us your Dumb Things We Saw Today. Here is another gem:
We were working with a vendor energy trading system and inputting an exchange Order ID into an Order ID Ref field. Kudos to the vendor for having an Order ID Ref field at all.
