TOPIC:

Hi, I'm using the VM order plugin on VM3. The setting for both order numbers and invoice numbers is [year2][month]#. The output for the invoices is as expected (e.g. 15020007) but the order number has a trailing -1 (e.g. 15020007-1). Where does the -1 come from and how do I get rid of it? Thanks for the information,

Peter

Do you already have an order with number 15020007 in your database? VirtueMart then automatically appends another running number (in VM2 it was even worse: It appended the current date+time!).
This is done by VirtueMart itself.

One reason to have duplicate numbers is if you try to reset the counter after a few test orders. In particular, you need to remove the entries from the invoices database table (just removing the orders will NOT suffice). That can only be done in the database...

Best regards,
Reinhold

Thanks! I'll give it a try ...

Problem solved.
