To show order history number in current order detail page of Shopify Admin Dashboard

A developer wants to customize the Shopify Admin Dashboard to display order history information directly on current order detail pages, specifically showing previous order numbers for repeat customers.

Key Requirements:

  • Add custom text to existing Admin Dashboard buttons (example: modifying “Create order” button)
  • Display order history/previous order numbers when viewing a repeated customer’s current order
  • Customization needed only in Admin Dashboard, not the storefront theme

Current Status:

  • User is seeking guidance on whether this customization is possible
  • Requesting recommendations for third-party apps or alternative approaches
  • Includes a screenshot reference (though image details not visible in text)

The question remains unanswered, with no solutions or app recommendations provided yet.

Is it possible to customize Shopify Admin Dashboard to add some custom text (eg. Create New Order) to the existing button of Shopify Admin Dashboard like “Create order”.
Especially I want to show order history number (previous order number) in current order (repeated order) detail page in Shopify Admin Dashboard.

And then is it possible adding another button or text not in theme and only in Admin Dashboard. If so, please can someone assist me possible ways or recommend third-party app?
