Changes in Configuration Product Page

Changed the look and feel of configuration product detail page in BackOffice

A new flag called ‘Mandatory’ has been introduced at component level. If the flag is checked then the customer on store cannot uncheck the component while buying the product configuration.

User can now add images to components as well.

System to display Breadcrumbs navigation for Closed Transactions on Responsive Store

System will now display breadcrumbs navigation for closed transactions on Responsive Store. This will allow the customer to easily navigate from closed transaction page back to the transaction listing page.

A new column called ‘Customer PO#’ has been introduced in Commission Report. Values in this new column will be visible with customer PO number for transactions where customer enters the information.
