When you add a new company or a new shop in your app, assign a random code to it, then use this code for any order made by the customers.

This will generate a code between 2000 and 9000 randomly and you can assign this code to the company in your spreadsheet.

If you are in a big hurry, you’re probably not going to solve this problem quickly. What you’re asking is going to take a lot of work and a lot of time on your part.

How soon do you need to finish this?

Also, most of the people answering questions here are users just like you. We’re volunteering our time to help you. But you’ll need to be patient and do the work to learn how to make the app you want.

Suggestion: Forget about code for a minute. Suppose you were making a spreadsheet that recorded all this information. What columns would you need in your spreadsheet, and how would you know the answer to your question.

When you’ve figured out what that looks like, you’ll be much closer to being ready to code it in blocks.
