Concern about Shopify order numbering after test orders before launch. The poster plans to cancel and delete all test orders ahead of going live.
Key question: Will the order numbering sequence (the sequential IDs Shopify assigns to orders, commonly starting at 1001) automatically reset to 1001 after deleting test orders?
If it does not reset, the poster requests a workaround or process to clean up the numbering so the live store starts with a fresh sequence.
Objective: Ensure a clean, professional order number series at launch without remnants from testing.
Status: No responses or confirmed solutions yet; the discussion remains open with the main question unanswered.
Hi All,
We’ve been creating test orders and are about to go live next week. We will cancel and delete all of our test orders before going live. However, will our order numbering sequence start from 1001 again automatically? If not, is there a workaround or process to get it cleaned up?
Thanks,
Chet
