- Shipping Manifest Error Message: When an attempt to create shipping manifests for Canada Post fails, the error response will now include a list of affected shipment(s) that are causing the issue. Previously, you would have had to test generating the manifest for one shipment at a time to determine which were at fault. The error message also now prompts you to refresh the page, which is the recommended action in this scenario.
- Fulfiller UI Advanced Search: Additional search parameters have been added to the Advanced search options of the Fulfiller UI for Shipment Number, Order Number, and UPC (which maps to the Product Code). While you could already search by shipment and order numbers in the quick search, adding them to the Advanced menu allows for more fine-tuned queries. For instance, using the Advanced menu to filter by Shipment Number will restrict the results to only those with a matching Shipment Number but the quick search may have returned matches from other fields as well.
- Subscription Enhancements: More enhancements have been made to Subscriptions.
- When a subscription is created from an order, the initial order is saved as parentOrderId in the subscription data.
- Validation has been added to ensure that if an item is set up as subscription-only, then it cannot be bought as a one-time purchase and attempting to do so will result in an error.
- Item-level and order-level subscription discounts are now appropriately displayed in subscription details in a similar format to B2B quotes, including the discount name.
- When editing a subscription from the Customers page and adding a configurable product, a modal will now appear that allows you to select a product variation.
- Validation has also been added to product attributes to ensure that the Separate Product Extras During Subscription Creation attribute used for configurable bundles can only be enabled if Distribute Pricing to Extras on Shipment Creation is also enabled. This may also be called “Split Extras in Subscriptions.”
Production Sandbox Features
eCommerce & Order Management Functionality
- Alternate Pickup Contact: BOPIS and Curbside orders can now support multiple pickup persons, allowing the customer to designate a second contact who can pick up the order at checkout. This additional contact is displayed with the order/shipment details in the Order Admin and Fulfiller UI, though it can only be edited in the Admin. The alternate contact will receive fulfillment emails and SMS about the order, including Order Confirmation and all Curbside notifications, in addition to the primary contact.
To support this, analternateContactobject that includes thefirstName,lastNameOrSurname,emailAddress, andphoneNumbersfields is now available on the Order API so that this information can be set when creating the order. There are also new endpoints to update and remove the alternate contact on an order. ThealternateContactobject is passed to the Shipment API data as well, though the Shipment API schemas are not yet updated in documentation. - Unique Shipment Notes in Order Admin: Shipment-level notes can now be viewed and edited in the Order Admin. A new “Internal Shipment Notes” tab is displayed when viewing shipment details on an order and will include a table of internal notes with a button to add a new note to the list. These are similar to order notes, but recall that they are unique to the individual shipment and will not carry over to the order level or other shipments on the same order.
- UPS SurePost Validation: In location group shipping settings, validation has been added to ensure that imperial unit types are used for UPS SurePost packages. If unit types are not set to imperial, then an error will be returned and a message will prompt you to update the units.
- Subscription Core Theme Updates: The core theme has been updated to include sections in storefront page templates for subscription functionality. The subscription pricing and supported frequencies are now displayed on product details pages along with a Subscribe option that adds the item to the cart (and can be toggled between Subscribe and One-Time Purchase, in which case the subscription price and frequency will not be displayed).
- Order Admin UI Enhancement: Clickable links are now highlighted in green instead of black to make them more clearly visible in the Order Admin UI.
Fulfiller Functionality
- Shipment Manifest Window: The window of time in which the system looks for shipments to manifest has been extended from one day to one week, with approval from Canada Post and EasyPost. For example, this means that you are able to print a manifest on Monday that includes shipments that were fulfilled on Friday through Monday morning. You can select the range of time between 1 and 7 days that you wish to generate a manifest for on the Create Manifests page of the Fulfiller UI.
- Fulfiller Settings Update: The “Action on BOPIS Reject” fulfiller configuration in the general site settings has been renamed to “Action on BOPIS/STH-C Reject” in order to support STH Consolidation. This setting determines whether items rejected during customer pickup or STH consolidation should be cancelled or sent to Customer Care.
- Grouped Pick Wave Items: The Fulfiller UI will now display pick waves with similar items grouped together across shipments. Similar items will be listed under a collapsible parent row, with a child row for each shipment. For example, if 5 shipments have 1 quantity of Product 123, the pick sheet will show one parent row for Product 123 with a quantity of 5 and display child rows beneath it for each individual shipment that has a quantity of 1. This makes picking items more efficient and the sheet easier to reference.
