Release Notes for Update 2023.05 - 2023.09

The B2B Suite’s inquiry and quo­ta­ti­on func­tion has been enhan­ced with addi­tio­nal functionalities.

Procurement

• As a cus­to­mer, I will recei­ve asso­cia­ted track­ing links for packa­ge ship­ping per order line item, if pro­vi­ded by the supplier. 
• In case of erro­n­eous orders, the expli­cit reason for the error should be shown in the cor­re­spon­ding email from now on. Until now, only gene­ral error codes were trans­mit­ted here.
• The end cus­to­mer order refe­rence will be, if available, dis­play­ed in the order overview.
• For the going live of the new order con­di­ti­ons, the wor­ding was adapt­ed and added in many are­as. In addi­ti­on, pre­vious set­tings from E‑Services were trans­fer­red to the new orde­ring con­di­ti­ons, pro­vi­ded that the cus­to­mer has not yet crea­ted his own orde­ring con­di­ti­ons using the test lab fea­ture. If set­tings have been trans­fer­red incor­rect­ly, this can be cor­rec­ted on the sup­pli­er’s com­pa­ny page under the item My order con­di­ti­ons. Furthermore, it has been ensu­red that the shop­ping cart opti­miza­ti­on cor­rect­ly includes all defi­ned abso­lu­te cos­ts in the calculation.
• The fea­ture for con­fi­gu­ring order con­di­ti­ons for dis­tri­bu­tors has left the test lab.
• An order can be noted as other­wi­se com­ple­ted direct­ly from a shop­ping cart.
• Absolute addi­tio­nal cos­ts that have been set under My order con­di­ti­ons eit­her by the sup­pli­er or by the cus­to­mer are now taken into account in the shop­ping cart optimization.

Digital Sales

• As a por­tal user, I can reject an offer and enter a reason for rejec­tion. As a por­tal ope­ra­tor I recei­ve an email noti­fi­ca­ti­on with the rejec­tion reason. 
• The loa­ding of the por­tal over­view has been accelerated.
• The test lab fea­ture “Offers for B2B por­tals” has been remo­ved from the test lab of the ITscope plat­form. A sepa­ra­te test lab for B2B Suite por­tal ope­ra­tors has been crea­ted in the por­tal manage­ment at cus­to­mer level. 
• We fixed an error in the Product Designer whe­re some pro­ducts from the Product Designer were not crea­ted correctly.
• The order track­ing view of the B2B por­tals has been exten­ded by order date and order number.
• As a por­tal user, I can find orders by sear­ching for order num­ber or order descrip­ti­on, as well as pro­ducts within the orders.
• The links to data sheets and order docu­ments no lon­ger con­tain the itscope​.com domain, but the uni­que shop domain.
• As a por­tal user I can archi­ve requests and offers in my per­so­nal pro­cu­re­ment portal.
• Ordering quo­tes via the B2B Suite is now also pos­si­ble from eProcurement sys­tems using PunchOut.
• When sen­ding a request from the por­tal, the por­tal ope­ra­tor recei­ves an email noti­fi­ca­ti­on with a link to the gene­ra­ted offer in draft status.
• As a por­tal user, an impro­ved address sel­ec­tion is available to me in the check­out. I can see which addres­ses have been crea­ted by me and whe­ther the­re are any rest­ric­tions on the sel­ec­tion of addresses.
• The acces­so­ry pro­ducts in the por­tal are now dis­play­ed in a list view.
• The French lan­guage is now available for the portals 🇫🇷 .
