During Testing I found a post here in the forums that would allow me to change the order id. Example:
ALTER TABLE `oc_order` AUTO_INCREMENT = 3000
I executed this SQL on the test site.
Now that I've converted all my orders into OpenCart - I would like it to start incrementing from the next order number. For example:
the last order number is 2124. I tried running the SQL
ALTER TABLE `oc_order` AUTO_INCREMENT = 1
ALTER TABLE `oc_order` AUTO_INCREMENT = 2125
But the order numbers are in the 7313 range.
Any suggestions on how to set the order number so when I place a test order it will be 2125?
It seems like you are trying to reset the AUTO_INCREMENT value for the 'oc_order' table in OpenCart. Since your orders are already in the 7313 range, setting AUTO_INCREMENT to 2125 won’t work as it can't be set to a value less than or equal to the highest current ID in the table.
Instead, if the highest order ID in your table is 2124, and you want the next order ID to be 2125, you don’t need to alter anything. If the order IDs are in the 7313 range, and you want the next ID to be 2125, you will first need to adjust the existing IDs in the table, which can be complex and risky as it might break relationships with other tables.
Please ensure to back up your database before making such changes, and consider consulting with a database administrator or a professional with experience in OpenCart to avoid any unintended consequences.

What if I delete the entire order database again before the conversion. Are you still saying it can't be reset to 1?KrewNoah wrote: ↑Fri Sep 22, 2023 3:02 pmIt seems like you are trying to reset the AUTO_INCREMENT value for the 'oc_order' table in OpenCart.

If you delete the oc_order table, then you should also deleted the correspong entries in all the related tables. It's best to do it via the OpenCart admin backend at Sales > Orders. After that, it should be safe to reset the AUTO-INCREMENT.
