New Product Type: Flexible Variable (PRO feature)

Introducing an all new product type - Flexible Variable. The existing variable product type uses a rigid Cartesian algorithm which makes adding and editing existing variants a time-consuming job. So we have come up with a new product type called - flexible variable. As the name suggests, the new product type makes it very easy to manage your variants.

Key features of the product type includes :

- Add / edit variants without re-generating them

- You can just make one tuple as primary variant while the remaining can have the attribute any. Example: Sizes can be variants (each of which could have a price, stock etc), while the colours can be any.

- Easy variant management interface.

- Variants can be removed without re-generating them

- Each variant can have a price, stock, image, quantity restrictions, availability etc.

Backorder Label

When customer makes an order including the items that could be backordered, there are no indication made to the store administrators. Now a label "backordered" would be included so that the store managers could easily find and fulfill those items when stock is replenished.

Improvements

- Apps can be easily filtered in the App Store

- Added create account link in the My Profile login page

So what is new in J2Store V3?

To start with, it is completely re-written using the Framework on Framework (Big thanks to Nicholas of Akeeba Backup for this wonderful rapid application development tool).

V3 includes the following New features:

Product types: Simple, variable, configurable, downloadable.

Configurable / Chained / Dependant Product Options : Choosing the configurable product type, lets you create a set of dependant product options. Example: Visiting Card. You can first ask the customer to choose the Type of Paper and based on the selection, you can display its Colour options. The chaining can be done for all product option types.

Variant Generator: Choosing the variable product type, you can generate product variants automatically based on associated options. Each variant can be managed separately and can have a price, inventory, shipping parameters.

Front-end editing: You can now add / edit products from the front end.

Advanced Pricing:  Pricing is more flexible now. Advanced pricing allows you to set prices for a date range, quantity range, per user group.

Example, you can offer special price for two months. Or you can offer a discount price for customers ordering 10 nos and above.

You can enter prices including tax or excluding tax. Earlier, you will have to enter prices without tax. This restriction is now removed.

In the configuration, you can set how you will be entering the prices.

Vendors : A simple vendor concept has been introduced. You can allow your vendors to add products from the front-end and allow them to view the orders of their products. (This is a work-in-progress)

Vouchers : Gift vouchers are now part of J2Store Version 3. You can create vouchers from the backend and send to your customers.

Promotions : A new plugin API has been introduced for carrying out promotions. We have come up with this plugin interface because each store carry out different, sometimes unique, promotional offers. Some might offer Buy 1 Get 1 Free. But other will offer 50 % off on subsequent purchases. The Plugin API will help developers create customised plugins that fulfils store owner's requirements.

Filters for backend order management : An array of filters has been provided in the backend order management

Edit orders from backend: Store owners can now edit the orders now. We are working on to allow creation of order from the backend itself

Invoice templates: Now you can create customised invoice templates. No need to write template overrides. You can include your store logo, any  information you want to convey to the customers.

Plugin interface for integrating with multiple CCKs and extensions :  The interface allows integrating J2Store with CCKs like K2, SobiPro, Zoo, Sebold through a plugin. Unlike the 2.x versions, creating an integration in V3 is pretty straightforward. We will be coming up with a developer documentation.

Abandoned Carts : The cart items are now saved in the database. So it is possible to get reports on abandoned carts and a whole lot of information. (A report plugin for abandoned carts is under development )

If the user is logged in, the customers can continue shopping from where they have left. Example: if a registered customers adds a few products to his cart and abandons, when he visits next time, he can see the items he has previously added to his cart.

Product Filters / Attributes : You can now have customer filtering attributes for products. This will allow your customers to search their products more effectly. However this feature will be made available only in J2Store's Product layouts. If you are using the Article layout or any others, then this feature will not apply because of the limitations posed by the catalog sources.

Product Relations : Define and display cross-sells and up-sells of your product. Again, this feature will be made available only in J2Store's Product layouts. If you are using the Article layout or any others, then this feature will not apply because of the limitations posed by the catalog sources.

Key improvements

The cart and order management has been improved a lot. The order object is created when the customer visits the cart and a same data structure is maintained throughout the checkout process. This allows the developers to modify the cart items or order items via plugins. Developers can even build a plugin to offer a completely customised checkout experience to the customer.

Custom product types can be added via plugins. For example, a developer can build a plugin to offer Booking as a type of product. The product form can have customised input fields as well. More on this will be in the Developer documentation

Inventory management has also been re-written. You can now set a product out of stock from the backend. Stock can be kept on hold for new orders for a particular period, before they are released.

We have made a number of other improvements in terms of User Interface and performance as well.

Overall, J2Store Version 3 will offer more flexibility and power at the same time allowing you to use the power of Native Joomla articles and other content construction kits.

Front-end editing: You can now add / edit products from the front end.

Advanced Pricing:  Pricing is more flexible now. Advanced pricing allows you to set prices for a date range, quantity range, per user group.

Example, you can offer special price for two months. Or you can offer a discount price for customers ordering 10 nos and above.

You can enter prices including tax or excluding tax. Earlier, you will have to enter prices without tax. This restriction is now removed.

In the configuration, you can set how you will be entering the prices.

Vendors : A simple vendor concept has been introduced. You can allow your vendors to add products from the front-end and allow them to view the orders of their products. (This is a work-in-progress)

Vouchers : Gift vouchers are now part of J2Store Version 3. You can create vouchers from the backend and send to your customers.

Promotions : A new plugin API has been introduced for carrying out promotions. We have come up with this plugin interface because each store carry out different, sometimes unique, promotional offers. Some might offer Buy 1 Get 1 Free. But other will offer 50 % off on subsequent purchases. The Plugin API will help developers create customised plugins that fulfils store owner's requirements.

Filters for backend order management : An array of filters has been provided in the backend order management

Edit orders from backend: Store owners can now edit the orders now. We are working on to allow creation of order from the backend itself

Invoice templates: Now you can create customised invoice templates. No need to write template overrides. You can include your store logo, any  information you want to convey to the customers.

Plugin interface for integrating with multiple CCKs and extensions :  The interface allows integrating J2Store with CCKs like K2, SobiPro, Zoo, Sebold through a plugin. Unlike the 2.x versions, creating an integration in V3 is pretty straightforward. We will be coming up with a developer documentation.

Abandoned Carts : The cart items are now saved in the database. So it is possible to get reports on abandoned carts and a whole lot of information. (A report plugin for abandoned carts is under development )

If the user is logged in, the customers can continue shopping from where they have left. Example: if a registered customers adds a few products to his cart and abandons, when he visits next time, he can see the items he has previously added to his cart.

Product Filters / Attributes : You can now have customer filtering attributes for products. This will allow your customers to search their products more effectly. However this feature will be made available only in J2Store's Product layouts. If you are using the Article layout or any others, then this feature will not apply because of the limitations posed by the catalog sources.

Product Relations : Define and display cross-sells and up-sells of your product. Again, this feature will be made available only in J2Store's Product layouts. If you are using the Article layout or any others, then this feature will not apply because of the limitations posed by the catalog sources.

Key improvements

The cart and order management has been improved a lot. The order object is created when the customer visits the cart and a same data structure is maintained throughout the checkout process. This allows the developers to modify the cart items or order items via plugins. Developers can even build a plugin to offer a completely customised checkout experience to the customer.

Custom product types can be added via plugins. For example, a developer can build a plugin to offer Booking as a type of product. The product form can have customised input fields as well. More on this will be in the Developer documentation

Inventory management has also been re-written. You can now set a product out of stock from the backend. Stock can be kept on hold for new orders for a particular period, before they are released.

We have made a number of other improvements in terms of User Interface and performance as well.

Overall, J2Store Version 3 will offer more flexibility and power at the same time allowing you to use the power of Native Joomla articles and other content construction kits.

Some might offer Buy 1 Get 1 Free. But other will offer 50 % off on subsequent purchases. The Plugin API will help developers create customised plugins that fulfils store owner's requirements.

Filters for backend order management : An array of filters has been provided in the backend order management

Edit orders from backend: Store owners can now edit the orders now. We are working on to allow creation of order from the backend itself

Invoice templates: Now you can create customised invoice templates. No need to write template overrides. You can include your store logo, any  information you want to convey to the customers.

Plugin interface for integrating with multiple CCKs and extensions :  The interface allows integrating J2Store with CCKs like K2, SobiPro, Zoo, Sebold through a plugin. Unlike the 2.x versions, creating an integration in V3 is pretty straightforward. We will be coming up with a developer documentation.

Abandoned Carts : The cart items are now saved in the database. So it is possible to get reports on abandoned carts and a whole lot of information. (A report plugin for abandoned carts is under development )

If the user is logged in, the customers can continue shopping from where they have left. Example: if a registered customers adds a few products to his cart and abandons, when he visits next time, he can see the items he has previously added to his cart.

Product Filters / Attributes : You can now have customer filtering attributes for products. This will allow your customers to search their products more effectly. However this feature will be made available only in J2Store's Product layouts. If you are using the Article layout or any others, then this feature will not apply because of the limitations posed by the catalog sources.

Product Relations : Define and display cross-sells and up-sells of your product. Again, this feature will be made available only in J2Store's Product layouts. If you are using the Article layout or any others, then this feature will not apply because of the limitations posed by the catalog sources.

Key improvements

The cart and order management has been improved a lot. The order object is created when the customer visits the cart and a same data structure is maintained throughout the checkout process. This allows the developers to modify the cart items or order items via plugins. Developers can even build a plugin to offer a completely customised checkout experience to the customer.

Custom product types can be added via plugins. For example, a developer can build a plugin to offer Booking as a type of product. The product form can have customised input fields as well. More on this will be in the Developer documentation

Inventory management has also been re-written. You can now set a product out of stock from the backend. Stock can be kept on hold for new orders for a particular period, before they are released.

We have made a number of other improvements in terms of User Interface and performance as well.

Overall, J2Store Version 3 will offer more flexibility and power at the same time allowing you to use the power of Native Joomla articles and other content construction kits.
