Announcement: FFUI Dashboard and Returns
In 2024, Kibo made a new version of the Fulfiller UI dashboard available for enablement, which also enables you to implement Fulfillment SLAs if you want to use them. Another update in which the Admin UI’s return dashboard is embedded within the Fulfiller UI was added to sandboxes as of Version 1.2510, giving fulfillers more robust return management. As of April 30, both of these updates are enabled in all sandbox environments. Please begin testing these features. Most implementations will be switched over to see these updated interfaces in all environments on June 16 unless you have arranged for an extension with Kibo. Please contact Kibo Support if you have any questions.Production Tenant Features
This production release is being postponed by two weeks, meaning that the updates listed here will be pushed to production tenants alongside the new sandbox updates on Tuesday, May 27.Catalog
- Rules Performance Enhancement: When accessing product rules for Return Rules, Safety Stock Rules, and Purchase Limit Rules, the data will now load faster.
Fulfillment
- Digital Shipment Update: Digital shipments will now be marked as Fulfilled when their order is moved to the Accepted status, instead of immediately upon order creation.
- Shipment API Extensions: New before and after API extensions have been added that can interact with the Get Shipment and Get Shipments APIs. This allows you to leverage custom tasks such as rewriting shipments to display a total bundled quantity instead of the individual quantities within a bundle.
Production Bug Fixes
Production Sandbox Features
Catalog
- Category IDs in Google Feed: Additional category data related to Category IDs, such as those of parent product categories, are now included in Google Feed exports.
- Dynamic Category Expression Update: When configuring dynamic category expressions via the UI, the
productNamefield now supports using CONTAINS.
Commerce
- Custom Returns Error Message: If an error message is specified via the returns.actions.before API Extension (using
throw new Error('MESSAGE HERE')), then the custom text will now be displayed on the Admin UI’s error notification banner when triggered.
Fulfillment
-
Partial Consolidation Fulfillment: When an STH or Delivery consolidation shipment contains both available items and items awaiting transfer, you can now fulfill the available items right away. Once enabled in your consolidation site settings (“Allow Partial Fulfillment”), call the POST
.../api/commerce/shipments/{{snipmentNumber}}/itemsReadyForPackAPI endpoint with a list of line item quantities, such as in the below example. This will move those items to a new shipment that can immediately continue with fulfillment. The transfer items will remain in the original Waiting for Transfer shipment until they arrive and can be fulfilled. The ability to do this through the Fulfiller UI instead of an API call will be added in a future release. { “items”: [ { “lineId”: 1, “quantity”: 2 }, { “lineId”: 2, “quantity”: 1 } ] }
Search
- Similar Products in Vector Search: The vector search now supports a query where, if a specific product is specified, the results will return other similar products. This query is formatted with the starting pattern “products like productCode:{CODE}” where a valid product code is provided and the search settings have vector search enabled.
