Setting up a system that sorts out the orders based on specific values in order to help identify and process them is mandatory for every commercial activity. Having a quick way to check and action the order ID allocation can make the entire process more efficient and easy to use.
Activate System through the Checkbox next to section title and Save Changes.
You can use the following parameters for ID formatting:
– {HH} > this parameter will add a 24h format order time
– {DD} > this parameter will add current day
– {MM} > this parameter will add current month
– {YY} > this parameter will add the last two digits of the current year
– {YYYY} > this parameter will add current year
In order to increase Order IDs length, you can add as many zeros as you want inside the Number Width input field.
