• Create Active Data Sorting Rules
  The Search Index Query Testing (SIQT) tool now supports sorting rules with active data sorting attributes. Get consistent sorting results in a storefront and when testing an active data sorting rule. Previously, if a sorting rule with active data was used in SIQT, the sorting used text relevance and didn’t consider active data.
• Search Engine Provides Better Performance
  The search engine that provides results for OrderMgr.searchOrder(s) has been updated across multiple instances. This update is aimed at enhancing the performance of the search engine. No user impact or behavioral change is expected.
• Get Better SEO Search Results
  In Business Manager, the Catalog URL rules now use the localizable display value for product attributes with the type Enum of String. The localizable display value improves readability and the SEO value of storefront URLs that use multiple languages. Previously, Product URL attributes used the non-localizable Value.
• Use Bots for Product Recommendations
  Offer your shoppers bots that provide multichannel conversational product recommendations and add products to the cart with the new Commerce Concierge for B2C Einstein Bot template. Create an enhanced bot from the template and connect your store to a new Einstein bot. You can also use the new Commerce Concierge bot blocks to add functionality.
• Get Improved Search Index Performance
  B2C Commerce has updated the search index rebuild process. The update decreases resource usage and improves performance, and an unchanged index is no longer published when no changes are detected. Previously, a redundant product update index task was executed following the index rebuild, and a new search index was published when no documents were altered.
• Service Framework Is Upgraded
  B2C Commerce is upgrading the supported SFTP algorithms in the service framework.
• Venezuela VED and VES Currency Codes Are Supported
  Merchants doing business in Venezuela can now use the VED, VES, and VEF currency codes. Previously, only VEF was supported.
• Rogue Query Limits in B2C Commerce
  To maintain the highest level of system performance and reliability, Salesforce B2C Commerce now restricts rogue queries that produce 10 thousand results or more. This restriction applies to queries configured in Business Manager or using the the customer_search, and order_search APIs (OCAPI Shop API) and get orders (SCAPI). To mitigate the risk of running a query with too many results, use targeted filters and offset values that limit results when querying data.
