WooCommerce Sequential Order Numbers Pro GPL Order Number Start

This is the starting number for any newly placed orders. This can be used to start order numbering at an arbitrary point (ie 1000) as long as it is higher than the current largest order number, or can be used to advance the order number in a shop with existing orders. For instance, if the current highest order number is 24 and this is set to 500, the next orders placed will be: 500, 501, 502, etc.

You can also control the order number minimum length by including leading zeroes to pad your order numbers with at least that many zeroes and achieve a fixed length. For instance, setting the order number start to “00001” will result in the following order number sequence: 00001, 00002, 00003, etc.

Changing this setting does not affect existing orders!

Order Number Prefix

Allows you to set a custom order number prefix; this can contain any combination of characters, or patterns as described below. Setting this does not affect existing orders.

Order Number Suffix

Allows you to set a custom order number suffix; this can contain any combination of characters, or patterns as described below. Setting this does not affect existing orders.

Skip Free Orders

With this enabled, orders with only free products and no additional fees or costs will be excluded from the paid order sequence. Useful when required by certain accounting rules.

Free Order Identifier

This option is only available when the Skip Free Orders option is enabled. This allows you to set a prefix for the free orders numbering sequence so you can have for instance: FREE-1, FREE-2, FREE-3, etc.

For example, if the starting order number is set to 1000, Order Number Length is set to “5” by making the order number start “01000”, Order Number Prefix is set to “AA-” and Order Number Suffix is set to “-ZZ”, order numbering will be as follows: AA-01000-ZZ, AA-01001-ZZ, AA-01002-ZZ, etc.

WooCommerce Sequential Order Numbers Pro GPL Merchant Usage

There are two different scenarios to consider: activation in a site with existing orders, activation in site with no orders.

When activated in a site with pre-existing orders, the existing order numbers will be unaffected, and order numbering for newly placed orders will directly follow the largest existing order number, or the configurable start number, whichever is bigger.

When activated in a site with no orders, the first order number will be 1; this value can be configured as explained in the Configuration section above.

WooCommerce Sequential Order Numbers Pro GPL Prefix / Suffix Patterns

The following patterns can be used within the order number prefix/suffix fields to add special values to the custom order number. For instance, they allow you to have the current day, month, or year within your order numbers. Any number of patterns can be used, and in any order, and new patterns will continue to be added as they are requested.
