Using Submission ID as an Order Confirmation Number

643 views January 1, 2019 September 1, 2019 admin 17

From v1.7.2,  you can generate custom submission numbers (Eg. “ORDER-0001”) and use it with the placeholder: {{submission_number}}.

Every submission in Easy Forms has assigned a unique submission ID, which is unique to the entire Easy Forms system, not just a specific form or account. These numbers are never repeated, so you can use them for a variety of purposes. One thing our customers have used this ID for over the years is for an order or reservation confirmation number.

You can view the Submission ID for each submission by clicking on an individual submission on the Submission Manager of your form. The Submission ID can be inserted into notification or confirmation emails, as well as well as custom messages that appear after the form is submitted.

To insert the Unique ID into an email, go to Forms -> Actions -> Settings -> Confirmation Settings / Notifications Settings -> And enter the Submission ID placeholder into the message.

{{submission_id}}

When the user submits the form, the variable for Submission ID will be replaced by the actual number that Easy Forms generates.

Note: To use this feature, your form must have the “Save To DB” option enabled.
