Take a look at class QUuid(). I doubt that you want to use this as a (visible) 
ID in the invoice and the payment. The numbering scheme for printed invoice 
numbers might differ from locale to locale, but a unique ID does not.

In order to match a transaction to an invoice, you need more than the unique 
ID. It might be presented wrong in the payment.
