1/6

12/31
- HOTFIX(10.1): Fixed an issue where children group items were being assigned to the incorrect parent group item when translating cart items to order items. This should correct Remnant’s cart issue.

- HOTFIX(10.1): Fixed an issue that was throwing a null reference exception inside the acOrder.AddOrder() method in 2010.1 only.  The situation only occurred when using Google Checkout.  When a notification comes back from Google Checkout, it is not in the original session that was used by the customer placing the order, and is instead inside a session specific to the notification agent.  It works around this by passing in a session object to use as an alternative, based on the session ID it has for the original customer.

- HOTFIX (10.1): Abandoned cart email query was not checking cart type Also rewrote query to be based on CartInfo instead of cart, both the query and the associated merge codes.
- HOTFIX (10.1): Fixed a strange issue going on with sessions where a + in the z query string variable did not get URL encoded and therefore translated as a space when doing the comparison against the UID in the database.  This caused the session to not load from the database, instead keeping old data that was there before the change to/from SSL pages.
9/20
- FEATURE (10.1): Added Product Imports support in API using the exact same format as our CSV import under global settings.  Accepts 1 or more rows of data so it can be done singly or in batches.  Customers can now make timed imports and sync large datasets more reliably by using the API instead of the import tool in the admin.

- FEATURE (10.1): Added new column to Order Listing, “Unshippable”, will be true if the order contains any items that force an order review such as BackorderedItems, UnavailableItems, etc.  Now agents can see at a glance if the order requires review or splitting.  Added to default column set too.
9/19

9/14
- FEATURE (10.1): Added support for UPS Negotiated Rates
- HOTFIX (10.1): The Linkpoint integration with the upgraded component was still throwing errors, due to additional logic in the SSLCert property’s setter.  It has been revised to fill in the properties on the Certificate prior to assignment.

9/9
