CCP numbers belong to a plan. They count that plan's CCPs in the order of its flow. Here, is a prerequisite in one plan and CCP 3 in another, and isn't in the burger plan at all. Quote a CCP with its plan, never on its own.

Your own numbering stays with your plan. A standard or customer may set its own CCP numbers, in which case use those in your plan and keep the step number beside them. Standards change their minds too: the airline catering guideline, IFSA, listed food processing as a CCP in an earlier version and moved it to an OPRP in version 5.
