rollid

RollID is a term used in multiple domains to refer to an identifier associated with a roll or rolling process, event, or item; there is no single standard definition.

In manufacturing and materials processing, a Roll ID is the unique label assigned to a roll—such as a steel or paper roll—to track its use, maintenance, and history. Roll IDs enable traceability across production lines, inventory management, and quality control, allowing operators to record when a roll was used, replaced, or retested.

In data processing and software, RollID can refer to a rolling identifier scheme, where IDs are generated in a way that associates events or records with a moving window or batch. These identifiers commonly incorporate a timestamp and a counter to maintain uniqueness across shards or partitions, and they may be used in logging, event streams, or batch processing to group related records.

In gaming or recreational contexts, RollID may be used informally to denote the identifier assigned to a dice roll or an outcome in chat logs or replays, aiding auditing or sequence reconstruction.

Because RollID is not a single standardized concept, the precise meaning depends on the domain and project. See also: UUID, GUID, ROWID, rolling hash, identifier.
