Generate a random number as an order number?

    Hello,

    Is there a way to generate a random number, like 5 to 8 digits, as an order number for sending notification on the email subject line?

    Thanks

    Unfortunately, there is no way to generate random number. MachForm only generate unique incremental numbers.
    If you would like to customize the email subject, a simple workaround is by adding some random numbers as the prefix and use the {entry_no} template variable.

    For example, use this within your subject:

    Order #84713{entry_no}

    That would generate something like these:

    Order #847131
    Order #847132
    Order #847133
    Order #847134
    Order #847135
    and so on.
