Event to use to fetch Order Id and not Increment Id

Question

I am using the event <sales_order_place_after> in my observer to perform some action. I am inserting the Order ID in my custom table. But what I observe is that it does not give me Order ID but instead Increment ID, which I am fetching using getReservedOrderId().

Now to fetch Order ID from Increment ID I can use,

$order = Mage::getModel('sales/order')->load($incrementId, 'increment_id');

but I need to insert the data at the time of order placed, instead of fetching it again.

Observer Code;

$order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder(); //returns null

So I am using

$order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder()->getQuote();

Which event should be used in order to get all order details after an order is placed or on order success ?

Answer 1

There are lot of event in magento order place.

I have preferred checkout_submit_all_after event which is give Order and Quote in there Observer.

This event is occur for both frontend and backend.

Example:

<global>
        <events>

                <checkout_submit_all_after>
                    <observers>
                        <awesome_example>
                            <class>yourmodel/observer</class>
                            <method>SyncWithInfusion</method>
                        </awesome_example>
                    </observers>
                </checkout_submit_all_after>
            </events>
</global>

and Observer code is

public function SyncWithInfusion(Varien_Event_Observer $observer)
    {
        $order = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder();
    //get order
    $order->getId();
        $Quote = $observer->getEvent()->getQuote();


    }

Answer 2

To get the Increment Id from the order observer use:

$increment_id = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder()->getIncrementId();

To get the order id use:

$order_id = $observer->getEvent()->getOrder()->getId();

Answer 3

As you figured, you cannot get the ID before the order is saved. sales_order_place_after is dispatched before the order actually gets saved to the database (right before the transaction is committed). The very first event that is triggered after the transaction is submitted is sales_model_service_quote_submit_success.

Answer 4

In case of magento 2.*

create a events.xml for

1.sales_order_save_after

2.sales_order_save_before

1. events.xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="../../../../../../lib/internal/Magento/Framework/Event/etc/events.xsd"> <event name="{event_name}"> <observer name="{class name}" instance="{namespace of class}" /> </event> </config>

2. observer code

   use \Magento\Framework\Event\ObserverInterface;

class Orderpush implements ObserverInterface {

protected $_class_scope_config;

public function __construct(
    \Magento\Framework\App\Config\ScopeConfigInterface $scopeConfig
) {
    $this->_class_scope_config = $scopeConfig;
    // parent::__construct();

}
public function execute(\Magento\Framework\Event\Observer $observer)
{

$order = $observer->getOrder(); $order->getId();

} }
