Fell In Love With Magento? Get Ready For Magento 2.0 This Year!
With around 4 million downloads worldwide since its first appearance five years ago, magento has been the leading online business solution among the online merchants. Now the developers have come up with a better version, packed with new features that are sure to create a rage in the ecommerce industrial sector. We have compiled here a list of the 10 most prominent features of Magento 2.0.
Let’s unwrap the new present together. Shall we?
1. Enhanced compatibility with more platforms- Magento 2.0 comes with extended support to databases like MSSQL and Oracle, along with the PHP 5.3 and Zend framework which were supported in version 1.0.
2. Greater Flexibility- With new and improved component- based modules, it is now easy for developers to enable and disable components as per fluctuating requirements without having to worry about a tangled code base.
3. Advanced security- with the introduction of a new directory named ‘pub’, developers can now guard their codes from several security breaches.
4. Easy Hassle-free upgrades and Installations- Upgrading to Magento 2.0 from the current version has become more feasible. Moreover, with built-in composer implementation, new installations in Magento 2.0 will be easy and stress-free.
5. New File structure- The older file structure has been completely overhauled in this new version. New adaptation is happy news for the developers, since they won’t face any issues while developing custom Magneto themes. All the base views have been moved to the module structure, and themes have been completely eradicated.
With the addition of novel features like Service contracts, developers now have the choice to expose public ADI endpoints via XML configuration. The official announcement by the Magneto 2 Developer Hub is highly anticipated by both the developer and e-Commerce trading communities.
Learn How To Manage Orders In Magento With These Simple Techniques! Let us first start with the order placing process. It can be achieved in these three simple steps-
1. Add to cart- Add any item to your cart. 2. Proceed to checkout- This requires you to add information related to billing, shipment and payment options.
3. Place order
Once the order is placed, it appears as pending in the Magento admin area (Sales -> Orders) where you can review all your orders. Let us understand some basic commands to manage these orders in Magento.
Edit – This option will cancel the present order and create a new one, which you can edit and submit again keeping the same details.
Cancel – This command cancels the current order.
Send Email - This is used to resend the order email to the customer.
Hold – This puts the order on hold so that you will be able to process it another time. Later, you would be required to un-hold it first.
Invoice – Used to create an invoice of the order. This will change the status of the order from Pending to Processing. You need to click Submit Invoice to create it.
Credit Memo - This option appears only after an invoice has been created. It allows creation of offline refund for the order.
Ship – This is the final step of the order management process. It represents the actual delivery of the product. You have to click Submit Shipment to finalise the order. Now the status of the order will be changed from Processing to Complete.
Reorder – This option allows you to resubmit the order.
Order management offers you to print invoices and packing slips for the orders placed. This technique also supports e-mail notifications of Orders, RSS feed of New Orders and call centre Order creation.
