Custom Order Numbers for WooCommerce

WooCommerce assigns order numbers based on the WordPress post ID, which means they aren’t always sequential and can contain gaps caused by deleted posts, pages, or other content. This can make order management, accounting, customer communication, and reporting more difficult. Custom Order Numbers for WooCommerce gives you complete control over how order numbers are generated. Create sequential order numbers, use the WooCommerce order ID, or generate pseudorandom order numbers based on a CRC32 hash. You can also add prefixes, include the order date in the order number, choose a custom starting number, and automatically reset the numbering sequence on a daily, monthly, or yearly basis. Key Features Generate Order Numbers in a Sequence Choose how new order numbers are generated. Use sequential numbering, WooCommerce Order IDs, or pseudorandom (CRC32 hash) values depending on your business requirements. Continue Your Existing Numbering Sequence Migrating from another platform? Starting a new financial year? Choose the number you’d like WooCommerce to begin using for future orders. Automatically Reset Order Numbers Restart your numbering sequence automatically to match your business workflow. You can reset order numbers: * Daily * Monthly * Yearly This is particularly useful for accounting, financial reporting, and yearly record keeping. Add Meaningful Prefixes Make order numbers easier to identify by adding: * Custom text prefixes * Order date as a prefix For example: WEB-10025, 2026-10025 Renumber Existing Orders Already have WooCommerce orders?
