OPC numbering set incorrect?

[retrogamedealer]

Hi there,

So I wanted to enable the custom OPC numbering so the order and invoice numbers will be something like 2015000001, 2015000002, 2015000003 instead of virtuemart default numbering (1a4f023, 7445024, 9a21025).

To make this work I first went to:
-Configuration of RuposTel One Page Checkout---> OnePage Extensions

and installed
-plg_system_opc One Page Checkout for VirtueMart 2

Then I went to:
-Configuration of RuposTel One Page Checkout---> After checkout ---> OPC Numbering

and clicked on the dropdown menu of the order numbering and choose "new"

A new menu opened

The available format codes suggested that I use
-E-ORDER{YYYY}{nnnnnn} to generate the number E-ORDER2015000001 on the order

So I did that for the order and used E-INVOICE{YYYY}{nnnnnn} for the invoice.

Look at the picture below for the settings I used


But now when the customer makes an order, the order number looks like this
-E-ORDER{YYYY}{nnnnnn}

instead of
- E-ORDER2015000001

question 1:
What did I do wrong or forget? How can I make sure the numbers will be E-ORDER2015000001 instead of the joomla default?

question 2:
Also, lets say I want the order number to start from E-ORDER2015000055 instead of E-ORDER2015000001, how do I fix this?

Best regards,

hello, this is a very new feature in OPC and any sort of feedback or bug report is very welcome here.

i noticed that VM asks for the numbering BEFORE the order is actually stored within the database which makes is more complicated, but still possible, so maybe a few more lines are needed to finish this to the perfection.

i will try to add a "next autoincrement" value option into the new opc view.

i will send you an update in this matter after i do a few more tests for this.

Well thnx Stan I am looking foward to the solution of this problem

To give u some more feedback on this matter:

- As you know I set the numbering to: {YYYY}{nnnnnn}
- Allthough before I mentioned that the tool numbering displays the orders as YYYYnnnnnn, the order that I made after that one got number YYYYnnnnnn-1, YYYYnnnnnn-2, YYYYnnnnnn-3, YYYYnnnnnn-4 ect ect

Hope this information helps you

hello, thanks for further feedback, i am going to further test

for now, please change it to:
{ITm}nnnnnn

i need to re-test the logic of the wrappers ({ } ) and see on what would be the simplest and cleanest solution for this.

best regards, stan
