March 22, 2022 — 1.2210 Service Update

Internal Release Notes

Production Tenant Features

Client-Facing Updates

• Shipment Notes in Fulfiller UI (FFMT-3007): The internal shipment notes that can now be added to shipments via API (per Version 1.2206) are now displayed when viewing shipment details in the Fulfiller UI. These notes are only displayed on the shipment that the note was applied to, not any child shipments or at the order level in the Order Admin. You cannot create or edit notes in the interface.
• Campaigns UI Updates (CAM-283, CAM-282, CAM-277, and CAM-276): A few adjustments have been made to the Campaigns feature added in Version 1.2206. The cancel button font size has been increased to match the other buttons on the page, the cancel button on pop-ups now uses the correct styling, the master and child catalog list in the header is displayed in the proper font size, and the calendar pop-up for selecting the start/end dates of a campaign is now sized better.
• Multiple Partial Capture (COM-4767, COM-4766 and fixes CHAR-3132's outstanding issue): The behavior for capturing payment when a customer places multiple orders at once (such as in the case of multiship) has been improved. When one order gets captured and the other does not, a credit on the captured order will be performed with the gateway of the capture associated to that order. In other words, this ensures that the correct capture is always referenced when crediting and performing a credit will not prevent the other order(s) from being captured later. Additionally, multiple orders can now be auto captured at once with the same authorization when the "Force Capture on First Shipment Capture" payment setting is enabled. In this case, a totalCount is provided in the custom data when making the capture call to indicate how many captures will be performed under that authorization.
• Search Settings UI Updates: Additional updates have been made to the Search UI:
  • (SU-2028) The Search Redirects page title has been changed to “Search Term Redirects.”
  • (SU-2159, SU-2043) The _ta (type ahead) analyzer option is being removed from Site Search and a migration has been performed so that functionality is not broken by clients updating fields/analyzers that were allowed but should not have been. It is still valid for Product and Category Suggest.
  • (SU-2181) The Search Settings header now says "Search Configurations" when editing a configuration or after clicking Search Configurations in the navigation menu.
  • (SU-2153 and SU-2225) The Merchandizing Rules page now has a new layout.
  • (SU-1943) The bury values on the configurations table of the Search Settings page now has the proper styling to match the bury values on the campaigns table.

Internal Updates

The following enhancements are internal-only and not exposed to clients.

• FFMT-2975: Additional back-end work was done to support the 1.2206 fix that prevents multiple users from editing the same shipment at once, which had resulted in tracking numbers being removed from the shipment.
• COM-5396: To reduce downtime, single customer account retrieval calls now avoid accessing the temp table.
• CHAR-3610: Annotations have been added to container tests to indicate which containers are used, so that only the appropriate ones for the test are started.
• CHAR-3609: Tests that verify whether database connection pools are being re-used were disabled due to failures, which have now been investigated so that the tests may be used.
• CHAR-3530: Testing was done to verify that APIs implement all required auth checks for KCCP services, ensuring that unauthorized access is not possible and the appropriate headers for authentication must always be provided for security purposes.
• CHAR-3492: Some logs from the API Transform service were missing correlation IDs, so enhancements have been done to ensure that this service always logs correlation identifiers.
• CHAR-3468 and CHAR-2857: The inventory_log table has been cleaned and performance tests performed. Previously, the size of this log caused slow refresh jobs for implementations with a very large amount of records.
• CAT-1224: Product indexing has been optimized to improve performance of the product services.
• CAT-1168: Mozu.ShippingAdmin localization has been improved.

Production Sandbox Features

Client-Facing Updates

• Pickup SMS Updates (COM-2920, requested by Cost Plus World Market and PGA): The default SMS template of the Ready for Pickup notification did not include the external order ID or the store's number, address, and phone number. This template has been updated along with the Ready for Pickup Reminder and Partial Ready for Pickup notifications as well.
• API Performance Optimization (CAT-1248): Some updates have been made to the Catalog and Product APIs to improve performance, specifically by adjusting how internal audit logs were tracking changes.
• Default Buttons for Custom BPMs (FFMT-3096): Adjustments have been made to the fulfillment process buttons in custom BPM flows to allow them to better support different BPMs. These buttons now use generic verbiage by default ("Return to Previous Step" and "Proceed to Next Step") which means they will always correctly represent that steps that they navigate the user to. These buttons may be customized in the FFUI theme to edit this text as needed.
• Advanced Filter Update (FFMT-3052): The Advanced Filter on the search bar of the Fulfiller UI now returns an exact match of the term entered using the search syntax. For example, entering "Smi" as the customer last name will only return results for "Smi" and not include "Smith."

Internal Updates

The following enhancements are internal-only and not exposed to clients.

• VAMP-1452: Some JavaScript errors were encountered when using the Discount Folders dropdown introduced from merging a branch, which have now been fixed.
• TECH-651: Some features including SiteBuilder and Search Configuration were not working with the custom en-AE locale. Support has been extended to these elements.
• TECH-420: An internal API has been created to manage the supported tenant types on developer accounts in AppDev.
• CHAR-3645: The translated Change Gift Information API was never actually built. This has now been created so the documented API can be used to update gift details.
• CHAR-3613: The pending items handler sometimes caused never-ending cycles to occur when inventory was out of sync. This process has been improved to reduce this in the future and improve pending item performance.
• CHAR-3464: Inventory update events have now been fully implemented so that they will properly update the cache to reflect a new inventory quantity after changes are made.
• CAT-1246: The Mozu.Events retry logic has been updated to change retry delays by queueing the next execution date for 5 minutes, 1 hour, 6 hours, 24 hours, and 24 hours again.
• CAT-1110: QA has now been completed on the Bulk PriceListEntries API that allows updating 5000k price entries at a time.
• I18N-794 and I18N-777: Improvements have been made to the Mozu.Content and AdminUser APIs to support localization.
• Various schema and database builds have also been created: TECH-599, TECH-551, TECH-550, TECH-549, and TECH-546.
