Hello Kim,
Sorry for the confusion with this "feature" of OpenCart. It's definitely hard to see because of WHERE you must go in order to see the invoice number. You will need to be logged into the Administrator, then you need to go to Sales, then click on Orders. Now in order to see the Invoice number (based on what you've defined), you need to select the order, and click on VIEW. You will then see an option in the order to GENERATE INVOICE NUMBER. Such a vague place to find this option, right? You can also purchase extensions which replace the order numbers in the invoices. I hope this helps to explain the issue! If you have any further questions or comments, please let us know. Regards, Arnel C. |
