Order numbers being assigned non-chronologically

For the Neil Armstrong auction, Order #114 was assigned to a Free Bid placed after bids numbered 115-135.

Also in that same auction, Order #114 is listed on the All Orders dashboard page as occurring on 4/14/24 when it actually occurred on 4/15/24.

Here’s Claire’s most recent explanation:

@anne_marie_cruz pointed out that Order numbers and Dates aren’t always sequential, and this is why. If a User has a “Draft” order, WooCommerce will (sometimes) use that for a new Order. WooCommerce won’t let us subvert their “abandoned cart” functionality, so we may not be able to fully solve for sequential order numbers, but ideally we’d like to figure out a way to at least have orders dated based on when they were paid vs. when they were created.
