Order ID Schemes

There are two orderID schemes to choose from: "Date and Time based" and a sequential "Numeric" scheme.

Date and time based

The date and time based scheme is the default order ID scheme used by UltraCart when you create your account.

Info
  • UltraCart recommends selecting a significantly high starting number and a width of at least ten digits. Selecting a low starting number might give customers the indication that the online store has not been around for a long time or does not have a large volume of business.

 

  • Merchants should never reset the starting number lower than an existing order ID or a collision will occur.
