ImprovementsAbility to use secure content in the Custom DescriptionRecently Google Chrome has announced the planned improvements to connection security. Starting from October 2017 it will show the 'Not secure' message to users when they visit HTTP pages or HTTPS pages which include HTTP content. To comply with these changes and maintain users' credibility of site content, eBay notified it would use HTTPS protocol for all listings beginning in October 2017. The non-secure content will not be available for the desktop users. Buyer will be required to click on the additional button to see the full Item description if it is not HTTPS-compliant.
How does M2E Pro work with the security protocols? The previous M2E Pro versions use the non-secure protocol to transfer images/image galleries added to the Custom Description. Starting from this version, M2E Pro sends the image URLs based on your Magento Store View configurations. To set your preferences for secure link generating, navigate to System > Configuration > General > Web > Secure > Use Secure URLs in Frontend option. If the 'Use Secure URLs in Frontend' option is enabled, the content is sent using HTTPS.
A protection from concurrent synchronization processesWhen a Module synchronizes the data, no processes should be run in parallel. That is why M2E Pro has started to use the mechanism of Locks for the synchronization process. This protection prevents any other concurrent transactions from modifying the same data. In practice, this mechanism also prevents the creation of Magento Order duplicates. |

AddedAbility to include the Waste Recycling Fee to eBay and Magento Order detailsStarting from January 1, 2005, the California Electronic Waste Recycling Act of 2003 (SB 20 and SB 50) requires all end-users to pay the Waste Recycling Fee while purchasing the covered the covered electronic devices (CEDs). The revenues from the fee are sent directly to the State of California and used to cover the cost of device recycling. eBay supports the collection of the Waste Recycling Fee on certain types of electronic devices. Based on California Law, the fee is applied to each Item in the order separately. The final fee is included in the total cost of the order shipped within the State of California. Taking into account the aspects above, M2E Pro has added an ability to receive the Waste Recycling Fee from the Channel starting from the current version. In eBay Order details > Order Totals, a separate line indicating the total value of charged Waste Recycling Fee from all ordered Items will be displayed:
The fee value will also be transferred to Magento Order details:
So, now you are able to comply the requirements of California legislative and manage your Sales more efficiently.

ImprovementsNotification about impossibility to make Order Refund if Credit Memo created without ItemsAmazon has strict requirements for the order refunding. To be processed through Amazon API, the refund request must be applied to certain Items in the order. Otherwise, the error is returned by Amazon. Previously, when Magento Credit Memo was created without indicating the Line Item to refund, no obvious warning message was displayed. So, a user was unaware of reasons why the issued refund is not processed. Starting from this version, M2E Pro warns users about the impossibility to make a refund without items. The appropriate record is added to Order Logs. |

FixesThe DHL Carrier name was sent to the Channel as "DHL (Deprecated)" in some cases Recently the DHL nick value has been changed on Amazon while in Magento the old value still remains. Due to this fact, when the DHL is selected during the tracking number specifying, the Carrier name could be sent as DHL (Deprecated). With this release, M2E Pro obviates the issue. The correct DHL Carrier name is sent to the Channel. M2E Pro Order Grand Total was displayed incorrectly when VAT applied Before, the VAT was not being correctly applied to the Sales imported from European marketplaces. It was caused by Amazon changes made to the VAT values format. The issue has been obviated. The European VAT is correctly applied to M2E Pro Order Grand Total. |
