Goodday.

About the Order Id; What is the logical numbering of this.
To my opinion it doesn’t make any sense, my latest numbers within one day
496703
496668
496636
494383

Is there a way to change this?
For the administration I really would like if it goes up with a value of 1
Can I change this somewhere?

Thanks in advance.

The order ID is the (unique) EntityId associated with the order; lots of entities are created including one for each item in the cart every time you visit the "confirm" page, whether or no the order is paid for, so the number jumps a lot each time. It also goes up a lot every time you upload new photos. That's just the way it works. There's no facility for sequential order numbers, sorry.
