A new set of fragments has been introduced under a dedicated category called “Account Selector.”.

These fragments allow to compose and customize the account selector according to their specific business needs.

Here is a list of the newly added fragments for building the account selector:

• Account Selector: this fragment is the main orchestrator of the entire component, handles the communication with external components, the dropdown mechanism and the panels (up to 5 can be configured), and manages the main drop zone areas

• Account Selector Button: OOTB available Account Selector call-to-action

  (preserves the current logic for page/component refreshes), used to open/close the account selector (any custom button hooked up with the Javascript business logic can be used).

• Account Selector Panel: this fragment can be drag-and-dropped inside the Account Selector’s panel drop zone (each panel is a tab that can be navigated in the dropdown) and creates a drop zone to place account-related views

• Accounts Data Set: Data Set fragment to display the list of selectable accounts for the current user

• Create Account Button: configurable call-to-action that allows the creation of new accounts, maintaining the existing Account Selector flow.

• Account Orders Data Set: Data Set fragment to display the list of selectable orders for the current account

• Create Order Button: configurable call-to-action that allows the creation of new orders, maintaining the existing Account Selector flow.

A fully configured Account Selector is also available out-of-the-box (OOTB) in the Commerce Classic Site Initializer (LPD-20379).

Key Benefits:

• Flexible Customization: Easily tailor the account selector to match your site’s structure and user needs.

• Improved User Experience: Enables intuitive navigation and personalization of account-related views.

• Configurable Control: Enable or disable specific features and interactions without custom development.

The new Configurable Order Scoping feature gives administrators more control over how orders are displayed on the site. Two new configuration settings have been added within each Channel:

• Open Orders Visibility Scope

• Placed Orders Visibility Scope

Each configuration offers two visibility options:

• Account (default): Maintains the existing behavior, where users can see all open or placed orders across all accounts they have access to, regardless of who created the order.

• User: Limits visibility so users only see orders they personally created for the accounts they are part of.

In addition, a new permission—“View Organization Orders”—has been introduced under Orders. This permission ensures that Sales Agents can continue to view all orders associated with their accounts, regardless of the scoping configuration. The permission is automatically assigned to the Sales Agent role by default.

Key Benefits:

• Flexible visibility control: Administrators can configure order visibility according to organizational or role-based needs.

• Improved data privacy: Restrict order visibility to the creator when required.

• Backward compatibility: Default setting preserves existing system behavior to avoid workflow disruption.

• Enhanced role management: The new “View Organization Orders” permission ensures key roles, such as Sales Agents, retain appropriate visibility.

The Manage Product Availability at Scale feature empowers catalog managers to efficiently manage individual products through multiple configuration pages containing all catalog’s products. With tools for manual configuration, eligibility-based visibility, and some bulk editing, this feature ensures streamlined operations and enhanced control over product offerings.

The Account Selector Customization feature has moved from BETA to RELEASE.

With Liferay's New Headless Content Management System (CMS), creating, organizing, and publishing content is simpler because all content management tasks are brought together in a single interface. Your content is independent of its presentation, allowing you to reuse it across sites, pages, and APIs.

You can work with articles, documents, media, and more, while taking advantage of features like global asset views, organized spaces, and cross-site publishing. Thanks to Liferay Objects, the CMS provides flexible content structures and ensures a smooth, consistent authoring and publishing experience.

Key Benefits:

• Enhanced Efficiency and Governance: Achieve immediate content visibility and streamlined collaboration by centralizing assets into a single, unified view. Rigorous versioning and workflow controls ensure consistent content quality and compliance across the organization.

• Maximum Agility and Portability: Leverage a modern headless-first, API-driven architecture (REST/GraphQL) that makes content fully portable, ensuring instant readiness for distribution and maximum reach across all your digital channels.

• Measurable Performance and Data-Driven Strategy: Empower content owners with embedded analytics and strong preview capabilities, enabling teams to make instant, informed decisions that drive superior business outcomes.

This epic delivers a comprehensive solution for exporting and importing vocabularies and categories with associated data across Liferay environments, tackling potential roadblocks to ensure a smooth and efficient migration process.

Key Benefits:

• Achieve True Content Portability: Facilitate the easy and standardized movement of content architecture (vocabularies/categories) between different instances, crucial for multi-site rollouts.

• Accelerate Deployment Pipelines: Ensure fast, reliable, and repeatable promotion of entire content structures between environments, maintaining configuration consistency with minimal manual effort.

• Enable Bulk Management & Setup: Quickly bootstrap new environments with pre-defined taxonomies and enable efficient, large-scale bulk editing of existing category metadata via the export-modify-import cycle.

This epic delivers a comprehensive solution for exporting and importing tags with associated data across Liferay environments, tackling potential roadblocks to ensure a smooth and efficient migration process.

Key Benefits:

• Achieve True Content Portability: Facilitate the easy and standardized movement of content architecture between different instances, crucial for multi-site rollouts.

• Accelerate Deployment Pipelines: Ensure fast, reliable, and repeatable promotion of entire content structures between environments, maintaining configuration consistency with minimal manual effort.

This feature introduces “Lazy References” to ensure import success regardless of deployment order. If an imported item references a missing Vocabulary or Category, the system creates a temporary “incomplete” dummy object. This special status allows the main content import to succeed immediately. The project’s focus is managing the status lifecycle to allow a smooth transition of these incomplete dummies to a fully approved state when the complete taxonomy object is imported later.

Key Benefits:

• Order-Agnostic Deployment: Guarantees successful imports by decoupling content from its taxonomy dependencies, allowing content and categories to be deployed in any sequence.

• High Success Rate: Prevents import batch failures by automatically creating placeholders, isolating cleanup and ensuring that core content is immediately available.
