I agree that the booking date may play a role in your number assignment within a group (BS, AP, A, EBCI), but your absolute number assignment occurs at T-36 and qualitatively seems to have many factors including recent activity.
We're not talking about that, the OP is asking if his A bookings will transition automatically to A+ bookings for a better boarding position. In certain circumstances with SWA, a booking that is made before one attains status remains the same. You have to call and have the agent recode the booking with your status level for you to get the benefits (boarding, extra pts, etc.)

I hit A list preferred last weekend, but my future flights show the red icon A.
My account shows I am A list preferred, but the future flights show A.
My A-list bookings usually have a green A if I remember correctly, maybe the red A indicates it has switched to A+. I think it goes green for A, yellow for EB, and blue for biz select. Maybe an A+ can chime in here for confirmation?
