How to get the Customer & Order number starting at a higher #


Recommended Posts

Good morning,

 

I have just had a look at my cpanel and found what your looking for.

 

But not sure how I found it, anyway, goto the landing page of your cpanel and click on phpmyadmin, you should then see a list of 1 or more databases, click on the one that is relevant, scroll down the page until you find _ customer then click on structure ( to the right )

 

you should then get a page with id customer at the top, goto the right and click change, you should then get another page you then click operations

 

I hope this is clear

 

Paul

 

ps, I have tried to attach image but for some reason it won't let me

Good Morning,

 

I believe you are looking to increase the auto_increment value see here as per the instruction from Bruno Leveque.

 

So, changing the:

 

Invoice Number is done via back office.

Delivery Note number is done via back office

Order ID is done via cpanel phpmyadmin auto_increment

Customer ID is done via cpanel phpmyadmin auto_increment

 

I am assuming that increasing the auto_increment value/number will increase the order/customer ID value

 

I have read on the forum that the actual customer does not see there customer ID

 

If I were wanting to do this I would I would increase the order ID and then make a couple of test sales in my shop and see what happens

 

Hope this helps

 

Paul

Hi Paul

 

OK I will increase the order ID but looking at the photos that I send can you talk me though it. As you can see my photo is not the same as yours and I don't know what Button to push to increase the order ID.

Good Morning Nate,

 

OK I will try but I am not an expert, so

 

Go back to the page where you found id order ( dbimage1 ) and click on the pencil icon/change

 

You should then be taken to a new page (dbimage2) click on the spanner icon/operations

 

You will then be taken to another page (dbimage3) where you will see auto_increment

 

I assume you change this number

 

Hope this helps

 

Paul
