Adobe Commerce 2.4.6-p3 release.

The B2B v1.5.0-beta release includes new features, quality improvements, and bug fixes.

New Improvements to quoting capabilities help Buyers and Sellers manage quotes and quote negotiation more effectively.

  • Save Quote as Draft—When creating a quote request from the shopping cart, buyers can now save the quote as a draft by selecting Save as Draft on the Request a Quote form.

    The draft quote does not have an expiration date. Buyers can review and update draft quotes from the My Quotes section of their account dashboard.

  • Rename Quote—Buyers can now change a quote name from the Quote detail page by selecting the Rename option. This option is available to authorized buyers when they are editing the quote. Name change events are recorded in the Quote History Log.

  • Duplicate Quote—Buyers and sellers can now create a new quote by copying an existing quote. A copy is created from the Quote detail view by selecting Create Copy on the Quote detail view in the Admin or the Storefront.

  • Line item discount locking—During quote negotiation, sellers can use line item discount locking for more flexibility when applying discounts. For example, a Seller can apply a special line item discount to an item and lock the item to prevent further discounting. When an item is locked, the item price cannot be updated when a quote-level discount is applied. See Initiate quote for a buyer.

New Company Management—Merchants can now view and manage Adobe Commerce companies as hierarchical organizations by assigning companies to designated parent companies. After a company is assigned to a parent, the parent company administrator can manage the company account. Only authorized Admin users can add and manage company assignments. For details, see Manage company hierarchy.

  • On the Companies page, a new Company Type field identifies parent and child companies. Merchants can filter the company view by company type, and manage companies using line item or bulk actions.

  • Merchants can add and manage company assignments from the new Company Hierarchy section on the Company Account page.

  • API Developers can use the new Company Relations REST API endpoint /V1/company/{parentId}/relations to create, view, and remove company assignments. See Manage company objects in the Web API Developer Guide.

Fixed issue Merchants clicking the Print button in the Quote detail view in the Admin are now prompted to save the quote as a PDF. Previously, merchants were redirected to a page that contained quote details.

Fixed issue Previously when sending a customer quote with 0 percentage and changing quantity, the admin throws an exception but saved the quantity. After this fix applies, for the 0 percentage proper exception with a message will be thrown.

Fixed issue During quote negotiation, a seller can now specify a 0% discount in the Negotiated Quote quote discount field and send the quote back to the buyer. Previously, if the seller entered a 0% discount and sent the quote back to the buyer, the Admin returned an Exception occurred during quote sending error message.

Fixed issue ReCaptcha validation now works correctly during the checkout process for a B2B quote when ReCaptcha V3 is configured for storefront checkout. Previously, the validation failed with a recaptcha validation failed, please try again error message.

Fixed issue Purchase orders can no longer be placed by a user associated with the company after the company has been blocked. Previously, a user associated with the company could place purchase orders when the company was blocked.

Fixed issue Company administrators can now add company users from the storefront. Previously, Commerce logged an error when an Admin user tried to add a new user: CRITICAL: Error: Call to a member function __toArray() on null in app/code/Magento/LoginAsCustomerLogging/Observer/LogSaveCustomerObserver.php:123.

The B2B v1.4.2 release includes quality improvements and bug fixes

Fixed issue If a Seller creates a buyer quote that includes a product SKU not available in the shared catalog associated with the buyer company, the system displays the error message The SKU you entered is not available in the shared catalog. Please check the SKU and try again. The Seller cannot save the quote until they remove the product that is not available. Previously, the quote was saved with the unavailable SKU included, and the quote failed to load on the storefront.

The B2B v1.4.1 release includes quality improvements and bug fixes.

Fixed issue Purchase orders can no longer be placed by a user associated with the company after the company has been blocked. Previously, a user associated with the company could place purchase orders when the company was blocked.

Fixed issue Product backordered status is now displayed correctly on the storefront. Previously, products that were available for shipment were incorrectly identified as backordered.

Fixed issue If the company registration form includes a customer file type attribute, the file uploaded during the registration process is now included in the account information for the Company Administrator after the company is created. Previously, the attachment was missing.

Fixed issue The swatch selector for a configurable product is now displayed as expected in the requisition list item configuration page. Previously, the swatch selector was displayed as a dropdown field in the requisition list item configuration page.

B2B v1.4.0

June 13, 2023

Supported
Supported

Supported on Adobe Commerce 2.4.6-p1. Compatible with Adobe Commerce 2.4.7-beta1

This release includes new capabilities and enhancements for B2B negotiable quotes and multiple bug fixes.

New Added compatibility with Adobe Commerce 2.4.7-beta1.

New Seller initiated quotes—Sellers can now initiate a quote for a buyer directly from the Quote and Customer grids in the Admin. This capability streamlines the quote process and reduces complexity for customers. If a customer has not initiated an order, a seller can quickly create a quote on behalf of the customer and start the negotiation process. Previously, quotes could only be created from the storefront by the buyer, or by a seller logged in as the customer.

New Line item discounts and negotiation Within a quote, B2B buyers and sellers can now negotiate at the line item level, applying discounts and exchanging notes until an agreement is reached. Note creation and updates are included in the line item and quote history to track communication. Previously, buyers and sellers could only exchange notes and apply discounts at the quote level.

Fixed issue Adobe Commerce now displays correct details during payment when the Purchase Orders option is enabled and a virtual quote that was created with the PayPal payment option has been selected. Previously, totals were displayed as zero under these conditions.

Fixed issue Validation errors no longer occur when you try to save a company with a credit limit that exceeds 999. Previously, for company credit limits greater than 999, Adobe commerce inserted a comma separator, which caused a validation error that prevented updates from being saved.

Fixed issue The selected shipping address now remains unchanged when you place an order with a negotiable quote. Previously, when you placed an order, the selected shipping address was changed to the default shipping address.

Fixed issue In the Store Configuration settings for B2B Features, the Enable Shared Catalog direct products price assigning field is now disabled automatically. On the storefront, it is hidden when the Enable Company setting or Enable Shared Catalog setting is set to No.

Fixed issue When creating a company account from the storefront, Commerce now validates the email address before processing the company registration. If the email address is invalid, the operation fails and no account updates are processed. Previously, a customer account was created even if the request to create a company account failed because of an invalid email address.

Fixed issue Product SKUs that include double quotation marks in the Shared Catalog and pricing structure no longer cause errors in the Admin.

Fixed issue Updated the Varnish configuration for the Commerce application to prevent Guest users from seeing data from other customer groups.

Known issue

If you install or upgrade B2B 1.4.0 on Adobe Commerce version 2.4.6-p1, the following error occurs:

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.

  Problem 1
    - Root composer.json requires magento/extension-b2b 1.4.0 -> satisfiable by magento/extension-b2b[1.4.0].
    - magento/extension-b2b 1.4.0 requires magento/security-package-b2b 1.0.4-beta1 -> found magento/security-package-b2b[1.0.4-beta1] but it does not match your minimum-stability.

Installation failed, reverting ./composer.json and ./composer.lock to their original content.

You can fix this issue by adding manual dependencies for the B2B security package by adding manual dependencies for the B2B security package with a stability tag. For instructions, see the Adobe Commerce Knowledge Base.

Fixed issue Adobe Commerce no longer fails with an out-of-memory error when executing the app/code/Magento/PurchaseOrder/Setup/Patch/Data/InitPermissions.php::apply method during bin/magento setup:upgrade.

Fixed issue Adobe Commerce now saves custom customer attribute values for B2B users as expected.

Previously, Adobe Commerce did not process the reorder and displayed this error: The product has required options. Enter the options and try again.

Fixed issue Order history now loads as expected in a company administrator’s account dashboard page in deployments with a B2B company hierarchy that contains many customers (greater than 13000). Previously, order history loaded slowly or not at all, and Adobe Commerce displayed a 503 error.

Fixed issue New and duplicated products are now visible as expected on the category page when B2B shared catalogs are enabled.

Fixed issue Adobe Commerce now saves a grouped product to a requisition list as a list of simple products in the same way as it adds a grouped product to a shopping cart. Previously, due to how Adobe Commerce saved grouped products, the link for a grouped product from the requisition list always redirected to simple products and not to the grouped product.

Fixed issue Adobe Commerce now displays this message on the product page when you submit a product review from a requisition list: You submitted your review for moderation. The review also appears on the Pending Reviews page (Admin Marketing > Pending Reviews). Previously, although Adobe Commerce added the review to the list of pending reviews, it threw a 404 error on the product page.

Fixed issue The performance of the sharedCatalogUpdateCategoryPermissions consumer has been improved. After creating a shared catalog, the catalog permission indexer now uses only the customer group ID from the shared catalog, not all customer groups.

Fixed issue Custom customer address attribute fields that are associated with a shopper’s non-default address are now saved as expected in the storefront checkout workflow.

Fixed issue Orders for products that belong to a store’s default shared catalog can now be placed for shoppers through the Admin REST API (rest/V1/carts/{<CART_ID>/items) as expected. Adobe Commerce now checks if the product was assigned to a public catalog before shared catalog permissions validation in \Magento\SharedCatalog\Plugin\Quote\Api\ValidateAddProductToCartPlugin::beforeSave. Previously, Adobe Commerce did not add the product to the shopper’s cart and threw this error: No such shared catalog entity.

Fixed issue Adobe Commerce now sends new company user registration emails from the Adobe Commerce store’s address. Previously, this email was sent from the company administrator’s address.

Fixed issue The Company and Job Title fields on the Edit Account Information page are no longer editable.

Known issues

  • B2B buyers can use online payment methods to bypass the usual purchase order flow. This scenario can occur if the buyer can reduce their entire checkout total to a 0 — for example, by a promo code or gift card — and then remove the code or gift card. Even under those conditions, Adobe Commerce still places the order for the correct amount based on the prices of the items in their assigned catalog. Workaround: Disable gift cards and coupon codes when online payment methods are enabled for purchase order approval.

  • Buyers are redirected to the shopping cart when trying to place an order from a purchase order using PayPal Express Checkout when In-Context Mode is disabled.

  • Adobe Commerce sometimes displays a 404 error when a buyer creates a purchase order and then navigates to the checkout page. This error occurs when a buyer has previously created a different purchase order with an online payment method before navigating to the checkout page without completing the previous purchase. The buyer can still place the purchase order. Work around: None.

  • Discounts for a specific payment method persist during checkout for a purchase order even when the buyer changes their payment method during final checkout. As a result, customers can receive a discount that they are not entitled to. This issue occurs because a cart rule for the original payment method is still applied despite the change in payment method. Work around: None. See the Adobe Commerce 2.4.2 B2B known issue: discount remains for online Purchase Orders after payment method is changed Knowledge Base article.

  • The deleteRequisitionListOutput query returns details about the deleted requisition list instead of the remaining requisition lists.

Fixed issue Adobe Commerce no longer displays a 404 page when a merchant uses the Enter button instead of clicking the Save button when creating a requisition list on the storefront.

Please review available configurations.

Fixed issue The products query now returns an accurate total_count field when shared catalog is enabled.

Fixed issue The Company Configuration and Create Company pages now work as expected after you disable an online shipping method.
