With great pleasure, Aspenware presents Aspenware Commerce 2.27. This major release is compatible and must be deployed jointly with Aspenware Identity 2.16, Aspenware Unity 3.22, and Aspenware Arrival 1.7.
New Features
Theme Designer
As part of improving and streamlining our theming process, Aspenware has created a new tool to make implementation of new themes and upgrading existing themes easier than ever. Our new theme designer tool provides resorts with recommended templates and offers our most popular customizations for easy and quick selection and implementation. The most exciting part of this feature work is under the hood, where we’ve packaged up our theming files and folders into resort-specific modules and moved our theme building process outside of the larger commerce build. Future theme adjustments will be faster and easier to deploy with more reliable results. Resorts can also look forward to our upcoming theme plugin, which will allow theme changes without the release!
Checkout Enhancements
Aspenware has taken a deep dive into our code, assessing what changes and enhancements could make the biggest difference in performance. In addition to vastly improving the checkout complete call time, we’ve also introduced a CDN (content delivery network or content distribution network). This optional feature helps your pages load faster and reduces latency across your site. For more information and pricing please reach out to your Aspenware service representative and check back often for Aspenware’s formal introduction to the benefits of CDN and initial speed test results.

On some mobile devices, the error message “City is Required” was displaying displayed improperly. The message has been repositioned in an easy-to-see location.
For some iPad users, mainly using IOS 12.1 or older, the ability to add Group members was grayed out. This feature is now available again for all iPad users.
The Kount Command Plugin was modified to pass (NULL) as the BIN, and to update the Kount dashboard if a transaction has been approved by Kount, but subsequently denied by the credit card gateway.
Under “My Account” print vouchers will no longer print the entire screen. Instead, it will correctly print just the voucher.
Affirm Payment Plugin is now supporting a multi-store environment.
A minor adjustment was made to the position of the Voucher Banner so it no longer overlaps when using multiple HTML banners.
Some customers reported seeing an age range of 5-12 (Child) displayed in the minicart mini cart as a Date (May 5). This has been resolved.
Payment Plan payments that ran successfully through the payment processor but failed when processed in RTP|One or Siriusware (due to a network disruption, incorrect product id, etc.) did not have an efficient method to re-process. With this version, we have added a “Process- Don't Charge” status that allows for the data to be reprocessed by Siriusware/ or RTP|One but does not recharge the customer’s credit card.
Tax Rates, triggered by shipping addresses, were sometimes being triggered incorrectly on items that were purchased online but consumed at the resort. We have modified the management of multiple tax rates to be applied at the product level, with a determination of the tax rate dependent that depends upon whether shipping is applied to the specific product.
Resort guests using Payeezy as their credit card gateway were reporting that credit card profiles in RTP|One (primary and alternate) were getting created (rather than updated) each time a customer completed a transaction. This has been resolved.
