Yes, this is sometimes shown as SEQ. I have seen cases (family) where pax are auto-allocated a number seemingly ahead of those who have physically checked in earlier. Also folks with connections 12-16 hours earlier who check-thru may have a low SEQ - eg pax LHR-SIN-AKL may have lower SEQ than oax flying SIN-AKL.
I have a few BPs with SEQ01, and some with huge number if upgraded or re-seated.
A last minute lounge change to an earlier flight AKL-WLG on 26 Jan saw me 177 - just made the flight.
Was a FlexiRefund but since it was married segment NPE-AKL-WLG it was not manageable on the app/web.
