New Orders

Does the system notify the store owner of new orders via email and is there any add-on that provides sequential order #'s for each new order?

Posted

there is the option of setting 'Send extra order emails' which will send a copy of the order to your email address.

 

The order numbers will be sequential 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc

for the email look in 'Configuration>My Store'

 

the order numbers are automatically generated and are visible on invoices, packing slip etc

I would like the order # to appear on the final "checkout success page", in the subject of the emails that are sent to the customer and the store owner, and also in the Admin "Orders" section. And I'd like 0's to be prefixed in front. For example, Order 0001, is all that possible?

As a store owner, I am not getting any emails about new orders. But as a customer, I get them.

Even with the option set for extra order emails.

 

Edit: Nevermind, I did not follow the correct format for the extra email section.

If you can find the place(s) where it's outputting the text "Order n", if it's something like

...$text['order'].' '.$n...

(I can't look at the code right now)

 

You can specify a more elaborate print formatting:

...$text['order'].' '.sprintf("%05d", $n)...

which will give you a 5 place number with leading 0's.

 

By the way, the order number is the database order_id, which starts at 1 and is auto incremented with each new order record inserted into the table. The number will never be reused, even if an order is deleted, which could lead to skips/discontinuities in the sequence.
