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.

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.

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.

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.

Adobe Commerce now checks custom attributes for duplication of reserved company attribute names before permitting a merchant to save a new attribute.

The credit_history query now returns the specified company’s credit history for both the originally allocated amount and the purchased amount. Previously, this query returned an error.

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

Adobe Commerce no longer displays the Delete customer button on the Customers page when the logged-in administrator does not have rights to delete customers in deployments where B2B is installed.

Customer group is no longer changed automatically for a customer who is assigned to a Company when you edit the customer on the Customer grid.

When a merchant creates a shared catalog, permissions are now automatically set to Allow for the Display Product Prices and Add to Cart features in categories when the customer group is assigned this access in catalog permission settings. Previously, these settings were automatically set to Deny even when catalog permissions were set to Allow.

Shared catalog category permissions are no longer overwritten when a product is edited from the product edit page.

Adobe Commerce now sends an email notification confirming that a customer has permission to exceed the designated credit limit when a merchant enables the Allow To Exceed Credit Limit setting. Previously, the notification email sent by Adobe Commerce indicated that the customer did not have permission to exceed the limit.

The HTML container that surrounds product price on requisition lists is now rendered correctly for the children of bundled products.

Merchants can now designate the language in which company user email is sent when creating a company in multi-language deployments. Previously, the drop-down menu that enables merchants to select the appropriate store view and language was not displayed.

Custom customer address attributes fields are now displayed as expected in the storefront checkout workflow.

The B2B Features configuration tab now opens correctly.

Guests can now use QuickOrder to add products to their cart and then successfully remove items. Previously, when a shopper used QuickOrder to add multiple products to their cart, and then removed a product, the product was not removed.

A company can now be updated using the REST API PUT /V1/company/:companyId request without specifying the region_id when state is configured as not required. Previously, even though region_id was not required, Adobe Commerce threw an error if it was not specified.

When you create or update a B2B Company using the REST API (http://magento.local/rest/V1/company/2, where 2 represents the company ID), the response now includes the settings for applicable_payment_method or available_payment_methods as expected.

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.

Category permissions no longer change when a new product is assigned to a public shared catalog. Previously, category permissions were duplicated.

The REST API endpoint PUT rest/default/V1/company/{id}, which is used to update Company email, is no longer case-sensitive.

Disabling reward modules no longer affects B2B features on customer accounts. Previously, when reward modules were disabled, the following B2B-related tabs were not displayed: Company Profile, Company Users, and Roles and Permissions.

Adobe Commerce now uses the correct sender name on email notifications when changes are made to company accounts. Previously, Adobe Commerce used the general contact sender name defined in the default scope for all emails.

You can now successfully implement multishipping for orders that contain both physical and virtual products.

Merchants can now create company users from the Company Users section in My Account and Company Structure pages when Access Restriction is enabled and Restriction Mode is set to Sales: Login Only. Previously, Adobe Commerce threw this error when a merchant tried to create a user: Can not register new customer due to restrictions are enabled.

Adobe Commerce no longer resets a customer’s customer group to the default when a customer saves their account information.

Adobe Commerce no longer throws a fatal error when an administrator assigns a customer who has an active shopping cart to a customer group.

Adobe Commerce now provides an addToCart DataLayer event for Quick Order and Requisition lists pages.

Notification emails that are sent to sales representatives assigned to a company now include the assigned corporate logo. Previously, the notification email included the default LUMA logo, not the uploaded corporate logo.

A requisition list now includes all grouped products and quantities that have been added to the list. Previously, when a merchant navigated to a requisition list after adding products to it from a product detail page, Adobe Commerce displayed this error: 1 product(s) require your attention - Options were updated. Please review available configurations.

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

The Company Configuration and Create Company pages now work as expected after you disable an online shipping method. Verification has been added to prevent the attempted processing of disabled Shipping modules. Previously, Adobe Commerce displayed this error: Type Error occurred when creating object: Magento\CompanyShipping\Model\Source\ShippingMethod, Too few arguments to function Magento\CompanyShipping\Model\Source\ShippingMethod::__construct(), 1 passed in /var/www/html/elmtup/vendor/magento/framework/ObjectManager/Factory/AbstractFactory.php on line 121 and exactly 2 expected.
