Masterdata status & settings

Masterdata status checks if there are any expected masterdata values or field values. You define expected masterdata under Masterdata settings, and expected field values in Visibility settings. The status will be set to complete if none of these are specified. If specified, the status will first be set to incomplete. A scheduled job will then set products to complete if they fill your set requirements.

Resend invoices to external systems

There may be special occurances occurrences where there is a need to resend an invoice to an external system, although the invoice already has been send. We have therefore implemented the possibility to do this by resetting the export flag on the invoice. You can perform this action when editing an invoice in the invoice list. As this should only be performed in certain instances, this feature demands special rights. 

Administer scheduled jobs in the Settings menu

We have created a new page in the Settings menu where you now can administer scheduled jobs. This means that you can see which jobs are active on your client, see the history of when the job has been run and force the job to be run though this page.

Search by GTIN / EAN in the order booking page

When booking an order you can now through the product search feature search for products by GTIN / EAN number. In the table you will now find four different columns displaying the different GTIN / EAN numbers available per unit for the products. You can show or hide these columns by pressing the cog wheel icon in the table.

You add the GTIN / EAN numbers to a product through the product menu.

New webhook page with improved functionality

With this new webhook page you can configure which hook events should be sent to an integrating party, avoiding event flooding of receiving side.

Error log & Process log gets a new look

With this release you will find that the error log as well as the process log has gotten a new, fresh look.

Pre-defined order notes can now be found under General Settings

Pre-defined order notes could previously be found in the Settings menu (cogwheel) under Order settings. The page has now been moved to General settings under Order settings where other order-related settings can be found.

Creating warehouse transfer orders without available balance can now be turned on or off

Last year we added support for creating warehouse transfer orders with no available balance. We have now added a configuration to turn on or off this feature to enable the choice to allow creation of warehouse transfer orders without available balance or not.

Screen responsiveness improvements to better handle bigger screen sizes & utilize more space for new pages

We have made improvements on new pages in regard to screen responsiveness. It is now possible to use bigger and wider screen sizes, such as curved wide screens. With this change, we have also made changes to utilize more of the space available for all screen sizes, which for examples enable thes users with bigger screens to add more columns to tables, creating a better experience.

API throttling

Starting from version 7.2, the the  Extend Commerce API will use API throttling. The system will run in monitoring mode, analyzing API loads. Integrators extending API throttle limits will be contacted after end of analyzis analysis and will be forced to implement throttling handling mechanisms.

Failed to process orders through WooCommerce will now be found in the integration files error page

When an order originaing from a WooCommerce site fail to process in in  Extend Commerce Backend, the error will now be logged once and the order can be found on the Integration files error page in the Settings menu where you can adjust the order. Previously the order had to be corrected in WooCommerce in order to be processed.

Create customers through the API

It is now possible to create customers through the POST Customers through the API. Through this you can also connect the customer to customer groups customer classes etc.. This functionality makes it possible to book orders against the customer.
