Abstract: Let K be a global function field together with a place infty, and A the subring of functions regular outside infty. In this paper we present an effective method to evaluate the (locally free) class number of an arbitrary hereditary A-order in an arbitrary definite central simple K-algebra. We also show that the class number of any non-principal genus for a hereditary order in D can be reduced to that of the principal genus for another hereditary order in D.
