2. 【Update】 Customer management module now supports deletion of customer information

Usage scenario：

• Currently, the customer management module does not support merchants deleting customer information from the backend. However, some consumers may request merchants to delete their data to protect their privacy due to poor shopping experiences. To improve user experience, merchants can now delete customer info directly from their backend.

Usage path：

• Log in to your Shoplazza admin backend, go to Customers > Customer managment, Click 'Delete' on the Customer overview.

Feature introduction：

• Staff Permissions: A new control for deleting customer permissions has been added to employee permissions. Only those with the authority to delete customers are allowed to delete customer information.
• Customer Deletion: Click 'Delete' on the Customer overview, then click 'Confirm' in the confirmation pop-up to complete the deletion of customer information.
• Activity log: An entry will be generated in the activity log when a customer is deleted.

3. 【Update】New app: Checkout Premium

Usage scenario：

• Some countries/regions/ERPs have special requirements for order fulfillment addresses or additional information, such as the need to include a house number, PO Box address is not supported, Chinese characters are not supported, etc. Based on these requirements, we need to add specific validation and blocking capabilities to the checkout process for the delivery address & additional information provided by customers, to avoid customers entering information that cannot be fulfilled.

Usage path：

• Log in to your Shoplazza admin backend, go to Apps > View App Store > search Checkout Premium, go to the Validation and Blocking section and click New validation.

Feature introduction：

• Merchants can create validation and blocking rules for the delivery address fields at checkout or for custom additional information fields.
• A maximum of 5 validation rules can be added to the same address field, and each validation can have up to 5 blocking rules.
• Merchants can set specific conditions for the validation to take effect. Currently, only the condition of the delivery address country is supported, i.e., the validation and blocking rules only take effect when the country of the delivery address filled in by the customer meets the merchant's settings.
• When the information filled in by the customer meets the blocking rules, an error message is displayed and the order cannot be placed. The error message can be customized and supports multiple languages.
•  Merchants can also add regular expression validation rules to meet more complex information validation requirements.

4. 【Update】New app: Back in Stock

Usage scenario：

• Merchants cannot profit from sold-out products, nor can they know which sold-out products consumers are inclined to buy. For consumers, they cannot let merchants know their demands in a timely manner. To solve these problems, when a product is sold out, consumers are allowed to subscribe to restock notifications for the sold-out product and data is collected. This not only enhances the shopping experience for consumers but also helps merchants better predict demand and optimize inventory.

Usage path：

• Log in to your Shoplazza admin backend, go to Apps > View App Store > search Back In Stock > Install app > Turn on the feature

Feature introduction：

• Automated Email Marketing: After the product inventory is replenished, an arrival notification email is automatically sent to subscribed customers.
• Personalized Customization: Supports personalized customization of the subscription button, pop-up, and email content.
• Data Collection: Supports current product subscription data collection as well as customer and email dimension data collection, helping merchants optimize inventory in a timely manner.

Interface screenshot or GIF：

1. On the homepage, merchants can click on 'Enable Back in Stock Notifications' to activate this feature.
2. Merchants can complete the main content configuration of the app according to the configuration guide.
3. Merchants can also analyze sold-out product data and email conversion rates in the data dashboard to improve products and services.
