Order prefix/suffix

How about to be able to prefix or suffix a Order ID. (ex 2010-ORDERID)

Lot of my clients asking for this. (wich currently means (ubercart) hacking some places for it to show)

Yep, this is currently possible b/c we're maintaining a separation between the Order ID (always a serial numeric value) and the Order Number (defaults to the Order ID but can use any Token pattern). The UI for Order Number patterns just hasn't been implemented yet. ; )

I´m interested in this too.

I need to have customer id´s like WhoIsIt-UniqueID
and order numbers like WhoIsIt-UniqueID-UniqueOrderID. (numeric)

WhoIsIt: we decide between end customer and retailer
UniqueID: should start at 1 for both so the first end customer got the 1-0001 for example
and the first retailer the 2-0001

And then the UniqueOrderID starts like the UniqueID everytime at 1 as well so we will see if its the first order of this customer

In my opinion the whole id thing should be more flexible to easier fit different needs.

I appreciate every hint :-)
