If scheduling modifies your pairing it gets a letter at the end...

For instance a Cleveland pairing would be V5038.
If scheduling adds to it or mods it, it is changed to V5038A
The more letters you go through the longer and saltier the pairing becomes.

"Hello This is crew scheduling. We have some modifications to your pairing and I think you'll like them".
