Microsoft Perpetual Licenses Qualifications & Automatic Pricing

From this release, we fully support all Perpetual Licenses qualifications and the pricing rules introduced by Microsoft:

  1. All Perpetual Licenses qualifications are fully supported: The Commercial, Education, Government Community Cloud, and Non-Profit qualifications are fully supported by our platform and a distinct set of products is created automatically for each qualification.

  2. Automatic Upload of Perpetual License Products Prices: The existing integration of Perpetual Licenses now supports the automatic retrieval and assignment of prices to Perpetual License products, without the need for manual price import.

  3. Prices are calculated automatically based on the end customer’s country and currency: Perpetual License product prices during the creation of an order are displayed with their maximum value but before the execution of the order, the correct prices are displayed for the selected end customer.

  4. Conversion Tool for Unsupported Microsoft Currencies: For currencies that are not officially supported by Microsoft we offer a user-friendly currency conversion tool in which foreign exchange rates can be created and stored so as to support those currencies while reselling Perpetual License products.

The new version of the Perpetual Licenses is also available to both country and tenant resellers.

Cancellation of an Adobe VIP MP Order

The improvements of this release note, allow Adobe distributors using the BSS platform and Adobe resellers using the Storefront to select and cancel a specific Adobe order. This improvement enhances the current functionality where a user is able to cancel a specific number of seats from a subscription without reviewing the number of seats that were purchased in each order. Concerning the refund, we automatically track the level that an order was charged with, and accordingly we provide the appropriate refund.

Please check the Canceling Adobe Subscriptions in BSS & Storefront page for more information.


Improvements on the “Account Statement” Page in Storefront

With this release, the Account Statement page in Storefront displays not just all the most recent transactions (in chronological order) by default, but it also displays more convenient data such as the opening balance as well as the debit and credit totals when the Transaction Type filter All Transaction Types is selected. The aforementioned metrics are updated based on the selected time period.

Please check the Viewing the Account Statement in the Storefront page for more information.

 

Update End Customer’s Address and Continue the Checkout Process

When resellers checkout a product for one of their end customers in Storefront, whose billing address is missing or is incomplete, the reseller is now able to update/fill in the end customer’s billing address required fields (based on the applicable validations per field) and then save the changes in order to continue the checkout process.

 

Upcoming Fix-Notice for Monthly Installment Invoices with Wrong Cost Amount

We have been informed by some of our clients that there were certain invoice inconsistencies after the introduction of Billing Frequencies concerning the data of the unit cost price. For this reason, we have implemented a corrective script that will run on the upcoming release note, 3.28.66 to repair every existing invoice that was affected as well as fix this issue for any invoice that will be generated in the future.

Updates on APIs

 

Accounts API (V.3)

Improvement Description

This change concerns the column “IsAffiliatte” inside the endpoint /api/accounts which was previously returning null values but now it returns either the value true or the value false. Existing implementations will receive by default the value false to not affect them. However, the value true will be available when the retrieval of a specific account is requested and that account is an affiliate account.

Affected End-Point(s)

GET /api/accounts
