Event code and VIN
At what stage in the event code( e.g. 2000-3000) would a Vin become available?

Somewhere around 3800 I believe...
1100, Preliminary order accepted
2000, Order accepted by GM
2030, Order re-edited (if necessary)
2051, Order changed thru Web
2500, Order preferenced
3000, Order accepted by production control
3100, Order available to sequence
3300, Order scheduled for production
3400, Order broadcast
3800, Order produced
4000, Available to ship
4104, Bailment Invoice
4200, Shipped
4300, Intermediate Delivery
4B00, Bayed
5000, Delivered to the dealer
6000, Delivered to the customer
9000, Order Cancelled

Becomes available at 3800.
I believe it is created at 3300 but is definitely created for 3400 because that is when the stickers etc. that have the VIN need to be created.
Dealers can sometimes get it after 3400 but before 3800 but I am not sure how they can do it.
But at 3800 it is on the general server that CCS accesses as well as others such as BeckyD at Corvette7and mpuzach here.

I went back and looked at my saved conversations with Chevy chat. They gave me my Vin at 3300, and my salesman emailed me the same two days later.
