3.6.92July 4, 2026

Shopify Shipping Classification Now Checks Real Tax Amounts

3 changes
Fix1 item
  • Shopify shipping rows no longer auto-classify as standard-rated from the reported rate alone when the actual shipping VAT amount is inconsistent with that rate
Improvement2 items
  • VAT Engine now requires both the reported shipping VAT rate and the actual shipping VAT amount to match the destination-country standard rate before it classifies standard shipping automatically
  • Small one-cent rounding differences on shipping tax still classify correctly, while amount-mismatched shipping stays reviewable with an explicit diagnostic
3.6.91July 4, 2026

Shopify Split Dispatch Events Keep Their Own Warehouse Aliases

2 changes
Fix1 item
  • Shopify multi-origin split events now keep fulfillment-location alias evidence scoped to their own dispatch segment, so a DE split row no longer inherits NL warehouse aliases during source attribution
Improvement1 item
  • VAT Engine now preserves dispatch-country event splitting and fulfillment-location alias attribution together, preventing order-wide warehouse alias leakage across split canonical events
3.6.90July 4, 2026

Shopify Marketplace Liability Stops Being Implicit

3 changes
Feature1 item
  • Shopify preview, controlled import, and background sync now classify marketplace deemed-supplier liability from Shopify tax-line liability plus channel signals instead of leaving the marketplace field as a passive source default
Improvement2 items
  • Refund lines, refunded shipping rows, order adjustments, and cancellation residuals now retain the original Shopify tax-line liability evidence needed for later marketplace classification
  • The Shopify preview now shows a dedicated marketplace-liability diagnostic per normalized event, and the imported-event review queue now lets operators correct marketplace liability explicitly when Shopify evidence is incomplete or contradictory
3.6.89July 3, 2026

Shopify Fulfillment Routing Becomes Multi-Origin Aware

2 changes
Feature1 item
  • Shopify preview, controlled import, background sync, and bulk-history parsing now read fulfillment-order routing so physical lines can split into multiple VAT Engine events by dispatch-country group when Shopify reports multi-origin fulfillment
Improvement1 item
  • Fulfillment-location aliases now participate in Shopify source attribution when the order exposes fulfillment-order routing, and incomplete routing stays reviewable instead of falling back to a guessed warehouse origin
3.6.88July 3, 2026

Shopify Bulk Backfill Stops On Truncated Corrections

1 change
Fix1 item
  • Shopify historical bulk backfill now refuses to import an order when refund transactions or refund order adjustments were truncated in the bulk snapshot, instead of writing potentially misclassified correction events
3.6.86July 2, 2026

Shopify Correction Events Keep Enrichment

2 changes
Fix1 item
  • Credit-note-only refund lines, cancellation residuals, and linked refund-adjustment lines now stay eligible for Shopify product-tax mapping and country/customer-type enrichment instead of falling out of the correction workflow behind outdated review-reason gates
Improvement1 item
  • VAT Engine now keeps product-mapping diagnostics and customer-type resolution consistent across sale, refund, credit-note, cancellation, and linked adjustment events when Shopify provides the same underlying line evidence
3.6.85July 2, 2026

Shopify Late Corrections Stop Rewriting Closed Periods

3 changes
Feature1 item
  • Late Shopify refund, credit-note, adjustment, and cancellation-residual events now preserve locked or filed VAT return periods by landing on the first later open correction date when VAT Engine can link them back to an already imported original sale
Improvement2 items
  • Unsupported late Shopify corrections without an original-sale link now fail with an explicit review blocker instead of looping on retries or pretending a closed-period rewrite is acceptable
  • The Shopify preview/import surface now calls out when VAT Engine stored a correction on a later date than Shopify originally reported, so operators can see why the closed-period snapshot stayed immutable
3.6.84July 1, 2026

Shopify Refund Corrections Become Explicit

2 changes
Feature1 item
  • Shopify preview, controlled import, background sync, and bulk-history replay now distinguish settled refunds, credit-note-only corrections, order adjustments, and late cancellation residuals instead of flattening every negative order change into the same generic refund shape
Improvement1 item
  • VAT Engine now keeps the original sale link for Shopify correction rows whenever the store provides stable line references, and the order preview shows the difference between cash refunds, credit notes, adjustments, and cancellations before import
3.6.82June 30, 2026

Shopify Truncated Catalog Signals Stay Reviewable

2 changes
Fix1 item
  • Shopify product tax mapping no longer returns a confident tag or app-metafield match when VAT Engine had to truncate the underlying catalog signals during evidence minimization
Improvement1 item
  • When retained Shopify tag or app-owned metafield data is incomplete, VAT Engine now stops at that matcher boundary and keeps the event in review with an explicit signals-unavailable diagnostic instead of classifying from a partial subset
3.6.81June 30, 2026

Shopify Webhook Repair Becomes Clearer

3 changes
Fix1 item
  • Shopify reconnect and subscription-repair failures now show the specific rejection reason returned by Shopify instead of a generic webhook-registration error
Improvement2 items
  • VAT Engine now asks Shopify to deliver only the stable identifier fields needed for supported order, refund, and uninstall webhook automation, which reduces repair failures on stricter subscription checks
  • When Shopify blocks protected order topics, the repair flow now points the operator to the missing Shopify app access setup instead of leaving the rejection unexplained
3.6.80June 30, 2026

Shopify Activity Feedback Stays In Context

2 changes
Improvement2 items
  • Shopify integration activity actions now show success and error feedback inside the section where the action was triggered, so subscription repair, webhook replay, privacy updates, purge actions, and job cancellation no longer feel silent when the operator is lower on the page
  • These section-level alerts now scroll into view and use the same shared customer-account styling as the rest of the dashboard, making failures easier to notice without breaking the existing layout
3.6.78June 29, 2026

Shopify Product Tax Mapping Goes Live

3 changes
Feature1 item
  • Shopify order preview, controlled import, and background sync now apply VAT Engine product tax mappings using product IDs, variant IDs, SKUs, tags, categories, and supported app-owned product metadata
Improvement2 items
  • The Shopify preview now shows what mapping matched, which catalog signals were used, and why a row may still remain in review before final filing
  • VAT Engine now requests the minimal extra Shopify catalog permission needed for this classification work, adding product-read access while keeping customer-contact and street-address data out of the connector scope
