    Hello Mohit,

    Each character can be one of 62 possible values:

    1. a lowercase letter (a-z) - 26 values
    2. an uppercase letter (A-Z) - 26 values
    3. a numeric digit (0-9) - 10 values

    Hello,

    The first 3 digits are a prefix that specifies the type of sObject.

    I believe the rest of the Id is reference to the record itself. I should also add that the ID's are 15 digits long but can be 18 digits long with the last 3 digits for error correction making the the Id case-insensitive.

    So:

    3 Digits (Object) / 12 Digits (Record) / (Optional) 3 Digits (Error Correction)

    Thanks.
