RE: "Reference #"

If you MUST use a timestamp, then do a UTC timestamp.   That way it
doesn't matter if your clock gets set back (assuming that you also change
QUTCOFFSET) and it doesn't matter if you move to a new time zone, the code
will continue to work.

Also, if you must use a timestamp, make sure that you verify that the
number is in fact unique, and if not, increment it.

But really, I don't see why you'd use a timestamp.
