Sequential Order Numbers Pro for WooCommerce lets stores pick where their order number sequence begins and add identifying text around each number. For example, a store could use formats such as WT101UK and WT102UK.

Set a starting number

Choose a starting number higher than the most current order number. Existing orders inform the numbering logic, so review the order history before choosing a starting point.

Test orders count toward the sequence. If they should not affect a sequence intended to begin at a particular number, move them to the trash and permanently delete them. Trashed orders continue to count in case they are restored.

Format order numbers with text

Add a prefix before the sequential number, a suffix after it, or both. These markers can help teams recognize order references in shop communications and internal workflows.

Use the WooCommerce order number

Developers and connected extensions should use the WooCommerce order number when storing or displaying order data. An extension can filter the order number; the order ID remains the post ID.

Set up the sequence

The website must use WooCommerce 3.9.4 or newer. Install and activate the plugin, then set the starting number and any prefix or suffix to match the shop's numbering requirements. Review existing orders before choosing the starting point. After saving the format, place or review an order to confirm its number follows the intended sequence and format.
