NetSuite has just rolled out the latest SuiteCommerce update—version 2024.1—and we’re here to break down what it means for you, covering new features, improvements and bug fixes.
Ever wish you could clear your shopping cart with just one click? Now you can! SuiteCommerce 2024.1 introduces an “Empty Cart” button, making it super easy for customers to start fresh without the hassle of removing items one by one. It’s a small change, but one that can make a big difference in user experience.
This update also brings checkout configuration options like standard, one-page, and billing-first checkouts to the MyAccount area. This tweak makes reordering smoother and more intuitive for your customers, enhancing their overall shopping experience.
Nothing’s more frustrating than trying to order something and hitting an error. SuiteCommerce 2024.1 now gives customers more detailed info if they try to order more items than are available. This helps them adjust their orders without guesswork.
Some configuration options that were hidden before when configuring an SCMA site, are now available. This means you have more flexibility to fine-tune your checkout process and other site features, giving you greater control over how your store operates.
Previously, there were some quirks with how invoices displayed in MyAccount, like showing the live price of items instead of the price paid or placing currency symbols in odd spots. These issues have been fixed, so your customers see exactly what they expect.
SuiteCommerce 2024.1 also cleans house by removing deprecated features like AddThis and Bronto. Plus, with updates to developer tools and a shift to Dart Sass, your site will run smoother and more securely.
So, why should you care about this update? Here’s how it can benefit your business:
The new Empty Cart button and improved checkout in MyAccount make your store easier to use, which means happier customers and more sales.
Clearer error messages and accurate invoices mean fewer customer complaints and smoother transactions.
