2. How to Use Start Counter, Counter Step and Reset Counter

  • Start Counter: The Start Counter option is used to change the starting number of the order/invoice/shipment/creditmemo. Once you change the start counter and save the changes, the next number generated will start from that value.
  • Counter Step: This option determines the difference between two numbers. For example, if you set the Start Counter to 100 and Counter Step to 5, the subsequent numbers will be 100, 105, 110 and so on.
  • Reset Counter Time: With this feature, you can define the time interval at which the Order, Invoice, Shipment, and Credit Memo numbers will be reset to the value specified in the Start Counter field. You can set it to reset every day, week, month, or year.
  • Reset Now Button: The Reset Now button is used to immediately reset the order/invoice/shipment/creditmemo number to the value defined inside the Start Counter field.
