Adding the order number on the shipping email.

[Yanni]

I would like to use the order number on the "Order Shipped Email" as a tracking number. Just to make it a bit clearer.

I use City-Link as my courier that allows me to use any reference as a tracking number. Is there a way of adding just the order number on that email so that I use it as a tracking number.

So if the order number is MP43RJ10000003, this is what I want the email to say:

You can track your order under www.city-link.co.uk, your tracking number is :
MP43RJ10000003.

However, I want this to happen automatically rather than me having to edit every single "Order Shipped Email". Is there a variable I can add on that email to do so ? I have tried variable "OrderData" but it contains other things too apart from the order number. Also tried "OrderNumberText" and "OrdernumberOnlineXML" with no success.

I know I can say: Your tracking number is your order number, see section above under order status section, but I'm trying to make it easier for the customer.

Specific help please if you can...thank you.

You can add the variable <Actinic:ORDERNUMBERONLINEXML/> to the layout for the email and that should insert the order number for you.

Kind regards,
