The following options can be set: ![Toret Order Numbers Plugin - plugin settings](https://documentation.toret.cz/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/vlastni-cislovani.png "Toret Order Numbers Plugin - plugin settings") ### Initial Number of Custom Order Number Series Right at the beginning, it should be noted that if you do not set an initial number, the set number series will start from 1. So it is not necessary to set an initial number if you want to start counting orders from 1. The initial number can serve if you are migrating to our plugin from another numbering plugin and want to continue numbering. You set the number series in the plugin and choose a value, e.g., 200, as the initial number; with this setting, the first order number will be in the format 200. If it were to happen that an order with the same number including format exists, this number will be skipped. > Example: If order 2021-00122 already exists and you set the initial number from 122, the order number 2021-00122 will be skipped and the next number 2021-00123 will be created. ### Basic Number Series Settings **Prefix: **If you want to use a prefix in the number series (prefix before the number series), fill in the prefix value in the field. You can fill in a fixed value e.g. OBJ, 2021 or you can fill in a variable value e.g. {year}. Example: You fill in the variable {year}- in the prefix. The number of the first order in 2021 will then look like this: 2021-0001. **Suffix: **In addition to the prefix, it is possible to set a suffix for the number series. Just like with the prefix, you can fill in a fixed or variable value. > Example: With the suffix value set to “Toret”, the order number will look like this: 0001Toret **Number series length (Délka číselné řady): **Here you set how many characters the number series will contain. E.g. if you set the value to 4, the number series will be in the format 0001. **Number from one at the beginning of the new year (Číslovat od jedné na začátku nového roku): **If you check this setting, numbering will always start from the first order on January 1st (according to server time). **Reuse generated order number when deleting order (Opětovné použití vygenerovaného čísla objednávky při smazání objednávky):** If this setting is active, then when an order is deleted, its number will be used again for the next order. You can check the settings you have made in the row **Defined series (Definovaná řada)**. Here you always see what your number series looks like when filling in the settings. Finally, it is **necessary to activate the set number series** by checking the box. ![Toret Order Numbers Plugin - activating custom number series](https://documentation.toret.cz/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/vlastni-cislovani-aktivace-rady-1024x432.png "Toret Order Numbers Plugin - activating custom number series") ### **Number Series Settings for Free Orders** The plugin contains a function where it is possible to set a separate number series for orders that are free. It contains the same setting options as listed above. Thus, you can set Prefix, Suffix, Number series length, and Numbering from one at the beginning of the new year. > Example: 2021-0001-free ## Deleting Plugin Settings **Attention! Deleting numbering settings is irreversible.** ![Toret Order Numbers Plugin - delete settings](https://documentation.toret.cz/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/toret-vlastni-cislovani-objednavek-smazani-nastaveni-980x262-1.png "Toret Order Numbers Plugin - delete settings") After clicking the “Vymazat celé nastavení” (Delete all settings) button, a pop-up window opens with a warning that **deleting settings is irreversible and numbering for already created orders will also be deleted.**These orders will again have the number assigned by WooCommerce. Deletion must be confirmed in this window by clicking the “Ano, vše smazat” (Yes, delete everything) button. ![Toret Order Numbers Plugin - confirm deletion of settings](https://documentation.toret.cz/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/toret-vlastni-cislovani-objednavek-potvrzeni-smazani-nastaveni.png "Toret Order Numbers Plugin - confirm deletion of settings") ## Plugin testing For testing purposes, you can use: - the subdomain “dev.domainlicense” (with the same license as for the production website) - localhost (127.0.0.1) Purchased plugins will also work in these locations, and you can test their implementation and compatibility here before deploying them to the website and during its use.
