With great pleasure, Aspenware presents Cloud 3.1, Commerce 2.43, Unity 3.38, Arrival 1.9, and Resort Tools 3.7.

...

The following enhancements are available for Aspenware Cloud customers.

New Features

Calendar Templates

...

Admin

Aspenware is planning to release improved calendar availability urgency capabilities in 2.44 and is making the Calendar Template manager admin available Inventory Scarcity Indicators on the PDP calendar for Aspenware Cloud customers only in a future release. To prepare for this, the following admin screens have been updated in 2.43 to prepare for this feature release, giving admins time to make product setup adjustments.

To that end, Aspenware Cloud includes a new, global Calendar Template manager. With this manager, admins can view and create multiple Calendar Templates and each template contains a number of settings that control how the calendar will appear for the assigned products (after the 2.44 release) to create urgency for product purchase. Within the Calandar Template Manager, resort users are able to:

...

Determine whether or not assigned products should color code dates with low inventory

...

Add an optional description that will appear above the calendar for specified products.

...

and are visible to all Aspenware admins. Nothing needs to be done at this time, and further instructions will be provided in future Aspenware Cloud release notes once the feature is fully available.

• A new tab has been added to the Dynamic Pricing admin area on the Product editor called “Calendar Display”

• New tabs have been added to the Aspenware Styling admin area called “Calendar Templates” and Assignments”

Enhancements

GA4

Users of Aspenware Cloud will now see an event trigger when a customer clicks on the cart icon in the Cloud Commerce header. This event is the equivalent of the View_Cart event triggered when a customer clicks on the cart in the standard Aspenware Commerce header.

...

• You can now get customers, contacts, and family members using external IDs

  • External ID’s could be associated with an external customer database

• When a new customer, contact, or family member has been created, external IDs can now be based to any profile type. Previously, you could only pass an external ID for a configured type (Commerce Customer ID).

• When getting customer and returning a contact list with family members, all contact external IDs will be returned.

Suggested Edits

This Unity release contains updates that lay the foundation for future feature work. Changes have been made to existing APIs to enable future-state functions including:

• Customer, contact and family member searches using an external ID.

• External ID basing on any profile type when creating a new customer, contact or family member. Previously, only external IDs for a configured type (Commerce Customer ID) were passed.

• Customer, contact, or family member searches return all external IDs.

• All contact external IDs returned in a search for a customer who has a contact list with family members.
