Account Numbers

It is completely possible I am losing my mind here, but where is the most basic feature for customers called an... account number? Instead of asking for email addresses, there should be a little search box, type in either an account number or a "priority code" attached to either an account or an order, and bam, up pops the customer or order. Anyone implemented something similar?

You need to create either a new user setting and then use your custom query to list records depending upon that setting or you can use the NickName field as a workaround. Have a look at the following thread viewtopic.php?f=42&t=10074

Ok, what about an autogenerated account number? I should have clarified that.

Then you would use their UserId. In our referral program code, I display it in various places.

Aha!, I didnt try to look for that field in the database because it wasnt in the Admin anywhere. Thanks!
