the element and segment numbers in EDIFACT message definitions are mainly there to be able to reference them clearly in documentation. When two sides are negotiating a message contract, it can help to be able to just reference composite C040 or element 3127. The numbers don't have any meaning other than being unique within the given EDIFACT standard (e.g. D96A).
