Shopify Customer Type Stays Consistent Across Imports And Reports

2 changes
Improvement2 items

3.6.271July 29, 2026

VAT Calculations And Product Navigation Match Their Contracts

4 changes
Fix4 items
  • VAT-inclusive calculations now use the same minor-unit rounding in the public calculator and API, including very small amounts.
  • The calculation API now accepts both VAT-inclusive and VAT-exclusive inputs as documented.
  • The machine-readable API reference now includes accurate examples for extracting VAT from gross amounts and adding VAT to net amounts.
  • The Product menu stays within desktop viewports, while tablet and mobile navigation remains readable and keyboard accessible.
3.6.270July 29, 2026

Settled Refunds No Longer Duplicate Corrections

2 changes
Fix2 items
  • A Shopify correction that begins as a credit note and later settles as a refund now remains one current reporting event.

3.6.269July 29, 2026

Correction Events Stay Distinct In Reports

2 changes
Fix2 items
  • Refunds, cancellations, credit notes, and adjustments now require a stable source identity before import.
  • Older correction rows without that identity remain separate in reports and exports instead of one correction potentially replacing another.
3.6.268July 29, 2026

Reports Use Current, Filing-Ready Supplies

5 changes
Improvement5 items
  • Report totals and committed-supply exports now use the latest version of each imported sale or correction, avoiding duplicate totals after an order changes.
  • Items needing review and excluded items stay outside filing-ready totals while their counts and EUR-normalized amounts remain visible.
  • Long-running report requests now fail with a retryable response instead of consuming resources without a bound.
  • Public VAT-rate pages are generated from the same dated source snapshot used by VAT Engine and clearly distinguish an observed rate from its legal effective date.
  • Consent and route checks now continue to protect performance measurements during in-page navigation.
3.6.267July 28, 2026

Clearer VAT Engine Availability And Data Resources

12 changes
Feature6 items
  • A new pricing and availability page explains the current free alpha boundary, included functionality, and support expectations.
  • New public pages explain VAT Engine’s VAT-rate, calculation, historical-rate, tax-class, OSS/IOSS, Shopify, methodology, security, and corrections resources.
  • The EU VAT-rates hub now links to dated country standard-rate snapshots and a free calculator that can apply a selected country snapshot or a custom rate.
  • The calculator’s country picker is searchable by member-state name or country code.
  • Product and trust pages now include practical workflow guidance and direct official-source context for VAT, OSS/IOSS, TEDB, and Shopify topics.
  • VAT-rate country pages and the calculator now explain what a snapshot can answer, what still needs review, and when to use the dated API.
Improvement6 items
  • Documentation now shows a meaningful last-updated date and a clear correction contact path.
  • The Product menu now groups VAT Engine APIs, workflows, resources, and trust pages in one accessible desktop and mobile navigation path.
  • The desktop Product menu now keeps its grouped links readable in a stable three-column layout.
  • Documentation navigation, search, on-page section links, and copyable code examples remain available throughout the refreshed public docs.

  • Changelog archive navigation now opens reliably across release-note pages.
3.6.266July 28, 2026

Shopify Customer Type Now Follows Merchant Confirmation

4 changes
Improvement4 items
  • Shopify App Home Settings now shows the exact customer-type field to configure, links to Shopify custom data and orders, and offers reconciliation after a saved change.
  • A current B2B or B2C value in the merchant-owned Shopify order field now supplies the customer-type input used for classification.
  • Missing, invalid, stale, or conflicting values stay in review instead of being guessed from tax exemption, customer presence, or store-wide defaults.
  • Order diagnostics show the evidence status and approved source without exposing the raw Shopify field payload.
3.6.265July 28, 2026

Connected Store Orders Now Flow Through Reports

4 changes
Improvement4 items
  • Country Exposure, VAT Rate Mix, Turnover Trend, and committed-supply CSV exports now include imported Shopify orders and other connected sources.
  • Analytical dashboards can be narrowed by date and source; the committed ledger and export workspace provide destination, currency, classification-status, and VAT rate-category filters.
  • The VAT Rate Mix report uses filing-relevant VAT rate categories, and report counts identify committed events without presenting order lines or corrections as unique orders.
  • Direct VAT calculation requests remain available in the separate API calculation audit view.
3.6.264July 28, 2026

Dashboard Work Stays Current And Traceable

6 changes
Improvement6 items
  • Store activity resumes live progress updates when a later import starts, even after earlier work has completed.
  • Review work and unread notifications now show separate counts, so each type of attention remains clear.
  • Integrations tabs follow browser back and forward navigation, clear an earlier store filter when the destination changes, and remain usable on narrow screens and with a keyboard.
  • Review queue counts keep a clear screen-reader label, and review and unread notification badges remain readable when both appear.
  • Changing Transaction Ledger dates or filters now starts from the first matching page instead of retaining an older page position.
  • Sales and refunds in the committed ledger now include clearer source-event identity for audit and reconciliation.
3.6.263July 28, 2026

VAT Engine Updates Install Reliably

2 changes
Fix2 items
  • VAT Engine updates now keep application dependencies aligned for more reliable service installation.
  • The update process continues to verify compatibility before the application starts.
3.6.262July 28, 2026

Connected Store Orders Now Lead The Transaction Ledger

6 changes
Improvement6 items
  • The Transaction Ledger now opens with committed supplies imported from Shopify and other connected sources.
  • You can filter committed supplies by date, destination, currency, source, classification status, and VAT rate category.
  • Items that still need review remain visible with an attention marker, and the main Integrations navigation now shows their pending quantity from every dashboard page.
  • The notification menu also links directly to the pending Review queue.
  • Signed-in customers can access notifications from both the dashboard and the standard site header.
  • Direct VAT calculation requests are retained in a separate diagnostic view.
3.6.261July 27, 2026

Imported Events Needing Review Are Easier To Find

2 changes
Improvement2 items
  • The Integrations page now shows a warning icon and pending quantity on the Review queue tab whenever imported events need attention.
  • The indicator updates after review decisions so remaining work stays visible without opening every tab.
