How can I change the order number for orders being placed through the online store? (not manually sending invoices).

When a customer places an order, they will see "Sales Order S00001", "Sales Order S00002" etc but being a new website with very few orders, it's not going to look very good when they see their order is number 8 compared to seeing if their order was number 428.

Basically I want to start order number 1 as "Sales Order 500" for example. So all future orders will continue to count 501, 502, 503 which will make the website look more mature.

That can be done by changing he sequence for sales orders...

Going to the settings app...

Settings -> Sequence & Identifiers -> Sequences 

Select the sale.order sequence

The next number below sets the number it will start at.

What are the potential consequences of modifying the order numbering sequence in an online store, and are there any potential drawbacks to starting the order number at a higher value, such as 500, instead of 1?
