- Product single editor Show Kit Details modal.
Currently, once a kit has been created, the Show Kit Details modal is only informative, and does not allow the user to edit the composition of the kit. After this change, users will be able to add and remove components from the kit, and adjust the kitstock for any of the components of the kit.

Users will now be able to see the contents of the Amazon Status field in the single item editor.

When enabled, ONLY SureDone Storefront orders will be sent to SKUVault even if orders from other channels are received within SureDone.
- Product Search - We have added the ability to use any field for comparisons in product search. This is a very powerful tool. As an example, you can search stock:

- At times, pending sessions would not be removed after committing zipped image file uploads and not all photos were uploaded.

Current Version: v2.27.1 (Released March 8, 2017)

With this upgrade, the product single editor will correctly layout JSON whether it is in the new valid JSON format with individual fitment notes or legacy * delimited format without fitment notes. By default the fitment compatibility created will generate the epids in the legacy format and will only show individual fitment notes if the new JSON is present.

Documentation will be released shortly on our support site (link will be provided here).
- Kits and Bundles - Added "Kit Stock Options" under Settings > Selling > Kit Stock Options. This is similar to "Stock Options" under Settings > Selling > Stock Options in that you can add custom fields that should be used to automatically compute the stock value of a kit or bundle. This is useful when you are using stock from other vendors (such as catalog vendors) to create your kit or bundle. If this option is not used, kit or bundle total stock will only be computed using the standard stock field.
- eBay - We have updated the list of eBay categories within SureDone.
- Automations - We now have an inventory automation available for Dorman. Please open a support ticket if you are interested in pricing and details.

- In certain cases, adding fitment to an eBay listing would show a value of "False" rather than an epid. This behavior has been corrected.
- In certain cases, adding a new custom field via the user interface would fail and the loading spinner would not stop. This behavior has been corrected.

Before this feature was created, if someone cancelled an order through eBay and Amazon and the CANCELED status imported into SD we would automatically add the quantity back. Please note that if you enable this function, you will need to manually adjust your inventory after cancels.
- Fitment Update - We have performed a database update to correct "Le Mans" fitment subtypes to "LeMans", which resolved an error from eBay.

- Out of Stock Control Update - eBay no longer supports item level Out of Stock Control fields. The item level fields have been removed from the single item editor UI. The Out of Stock Control default setting field has been removed from the Settings > Channels > eBay Options section, and replaced with a instance-level (store-level) preference setting for Out of Stock Control. This setting, on or off, will apply to all newly-created items that qualify for Out of Stock Control. Any previously-existing items with an item-level Out of Stock Control value of on will remain on. Any previously-existing items with an item-level Out of Stock Control value of off will be updated to match the instance-level preference setting for Out of Stock Control.

- Skuvault - SkuVault has changed its policies, and now throttles API calls to its servers. To accommodate for this:
- If a call from SureDone to Skuvault reaches this limit, the system will automatically wait until the throttling window has reopened, and retry (up to a max of 3 retries before failing).
- Creating and updating products from SureDone to Skuvault no longer happens in real-time. Previously, this was done by way of sending a single call instantly for each individual product. Now, whenever a user creates or updates a product through SureDone, it will be added to a queue. This queue will be checked once per minute, and all creates + updates will be sent through to Skuvault in bulk calls. Since they either accept or reject all requests in batches, requests with failures will be removed from the queue and valid requests will be added back to the queue to be ran on the next try.
- Order syncing has also been updated to reflect this change. Orders will now be sent to Skuvault in batches, with a max of 100/minute.
