Frequently asked questions
Will this show the order count before or after the current purchase?
The workflow shows the total order count including the current purchase. So if someone is placing their 3rd order, the note will read "Customer's 3 order" reflecting their complete order history with your store.
What happens if I already have notes on an order when this runs?
The customer order count gets appended to existing notes rather than replacing them. Your manual notes will remain intact, and the order count information will be added at the end.
Can I customize what information gets added to the order notes?
Yes, you can modify the "Update Order Notes" step to include additional customer details like their account creation date, total spend, or average order value by editing the note template.
