I've just found the same problem.

I'm using MV 4.04 & MySql.

I checked the MySql logs to see what is going on with this value.  It seems 
that the '[data
         table=userdb
         column=order_numbers
         key="[data session username]"
         value=" [value mv_order_number]"
         append="1"
         ]'

tag in 'log_transaction' is appending & writing out the new order number 
for each order as it should.

But, some other part of the checkout process (that happens before the code 
in 'log_transaction' is run) keeps re-writing the order_numbers field back 
to the value that was read from the database when the user first logged in.

Has anyone found a solution for this?

Thanks.
