Absolutely. It even used to be documented before the docs restructuring... 8-\

It is not used at all to determine anything, other than to create
key values for database inserts. In other words, nothing in the core
code depends on it. All uses (in the demos) are in etc/log_transaction,
etc/receipt.html, and etc/report.

All you have to do is use the order routing function, and sometime before
the first route kicks off do:
[perl]
$Session->{mv_order_number} = &your_function;
[/perl]
For instance, you might use a sequence from a database or another
counter function via UserTag.
