Availability Legend

• QA: Available in QA environments for testing
• Production: Live in production environments

Release Flow Reminder: Updates are released to QA first. Production rollout follows approximately two weeks later unless otherwise stated.

Direct-to-Consumer (DTC)

Direct-to-Consumer includes storefront APIs, checkout flows, native payment integrations, native email integrations, and all customer-facing commerce functionality for online retail.

Improvements

PayPal refunds on cancellation of paid orders

Availability: QA
Audience: Customers

Canceling an order paid via PayPal automatically initiates a refund to the customer. This eliminates manual refund steps previously required in PayPal when canceling orders within Centra.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue where updating the sort order on an inactive category corrupted the cached sort order and allowed primary variant flags to override custom display ordering; LookupUri mutations now consistently respect custom category sort rules.
• Fixed issue where total-value vouchers producing recurring decimal discounts split order lines and detached add-ons from parent products; rounding calculations now preserve parent line grouping.
• Fixed issue where out-of-stock add-ons bypassed stock validation during checkout; out-of-stock add-on items are now removed and return an UnavailableItemError on paymentInstructions.
• Fixed issue where storefront lookups failed with language errors when no explicit language was passed; added the default language configuration back to the storefront lookup fallback.
• Fixed issue where non-session mode prevented the price injections toggle from rendering, causing Storefront API plugin settings to fail required validation silently; the field now defaults to false when unset.
• Resolved divide-by-zero fatal errors during promotion price calculations for products with base prices of zero.
• Resolved issue where duplicate payment capture attempts were logged in the admin panel for single order transactions.
• Fixed issue where error messages from failed external gift card captures were omitted from paramsJson logs and external integration payloads.

Core

Platform-wide backend functionality shared across DTC and Wholesale, including tax and discount calculations, accounting workflows, and third-party integrations.

New Features

Save searches in Centra admin

Availability: QA
Audience: Customers, Partners

Users can save and reuse search queries across Products, variants, and display listings in the Centra admin. Saved searches can be kept private for individual use or published publicly across the organization.

Partner notes: Public saved searches are visible to anyone with access to the Products page. Full access administrators and search creators can modify or delete public saved searches.

Improvements

Centra MCP public launch and performance updates

Availability: QA
Audience: Customers, Partners

Centra Model Context Protocol (MCP) v2.0.1 and v2.0.2 introduce dedicated tooling for AI agent integrations. Agents can access approximately 300 tools, request compact summaries or exact record counts for large catalogs, enforce environment validation checks before making changes, and utilize refined operational playbooks.

Bug Fixes

• Resolved issue in AI Content Studio where clicking back from the review step closed the details page context.
• Fixed issue where shipment creation in the admin failed with a no items error after completing partial returns; shipment calculations now exclude previously returned quantities.
• Fixed issue where clicking Confirm in the bulk-edit variant attributes modal failed when opened directly from the variant overview list.
• Fixed issue where product import crosscheck previews rendered data for only one display per product; crosscheck previews now show columns for all affected displays.
• Fixed issue where importing products assigned to multiple display categories merged values into a single category string; category values now split into individual assignments per display.

Wholesale

Wholesale includes the digital Showroom for buyer ordering, B2B account and order management, delivery window configuration, and administrative tools for managing wholesale operations.

Note: Showroom updates are released on Wednesdays with separate timing:

• QA: August 13, 2026
• Production: August 27, 2026

Improvements

CMS card background refresh

Availability: QA
Audience: Customers

Card backgrounds inside the CMS editor now match the updated CMS redesign styling.

Correct sort order for numeric filters and SKUs

Availability: QA
Audience: Customers

Checkbox filters and SKU-sorted views in the Showroom now use natural numeric ordering instead of strict alphabetical sorting, preventing numbers like 10 from sorting before 2.

Header account label update

Availability: QA
Audience: Customers

The account dropdown in the header now displays the buyer's individual account name instead of the platform company name.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue where the Add to selection button shifted position between idle and loading states in product grids.
• Fixed layout bug in mobile medium grid views where excess padding on color swatches caused product card content to overlap adjacent items.
• Fixed issue capping display price alterations at 10 items by adding independent pagination for product and variant pricelists inside the alteration popup.
• Fixed issue where refreshing checkout or navigating away cleared selectable shipping options from the order response.
• Fixed issue where variation-scope filters attached sibling variants that did not match selected filter values.
• Resolved issue where CMS page previews displayed market default values instead of active pricelist selections on initial load.

Integrations

Connectors, event listeners, and API frameworks for syncing platform data with external software.

Improvements

New event type for campaign variants

Availability: QA
Audience: Customers, Partners

The event system now emits dedicated events for campaign variant updates, detailing the specific variants changed within a campaign to reduce polling and query overhead on external sync integrations.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue in the Integration API where timestamp date filters combined with ID scopes dropped records due to incorrect timezone evaluation during incremental syncs.
• Fixed issue where the salesRepresentativeId filter in the Integration API get_orders query returned all orders without filtering.
• Resolved execution timeouts occurring during setDeliveryWindowVariants mutation calls in the Integration API.
• Fixed duplicate allocation request dispatches following order confirmation by locking event consumer processes across server instances.
