Magento – How to find missing orders in Magento

magento2.2.3orderssales-order

When I check the orders were placed on our site in the Magento admin panel, some of the order numbers are missing or we can say there's no sequence in order number.

Example: Magento was at number 100034468 and the next order number that came in was 100034470. The number 100034469 is missing.

So I don't know what happened to that missing order number. I have read some of the posts in Magento community, they are all saying that this can happen If there is session error or the transaction was declined to the order. Because of this, the order number will not be used again.

Unfortunately, there's no payment log under the var folder in order to check about the failed transaction. I want to know what happened to the missing order number.

I hope that I will get a satisfied answer from you. Looking forward to your comment. Thanks.

You will simply not get those orders,

because they are not exists

whenever some customer initiate the checkout process a unique order incrementid is assigned to them

but if they fail to put order and in mean time some other customer place the order that order increment id will be skipped

and you will no longer see that order increment id's order.
