Performance Improvements

To improve performance, it's now possible to globally disable FlexibleSearch restrictions defined for individual users, keeping only user group restrictions instead, or further disable them for users in selected user groups.

You can now globally disable FlexibleSearch restrictions defined for individual users and only keep the group restrictions by using the following property:

1
flexible.search.disable.individual.search.restrictions=true

The default value of this property is false. Since FlexibleSearch restrictions are usually defined for user groups, disabling individual user restrictions doesn't affect query results, but it improves performance by reducing the number of required database calls.

To further disable individual FlexibleSearch restriction for users in selected user groups, use the following property:

12
flexible.search.disable.individual.search.restrictions.for.members.of=customergroup,employeegroup

The flexible.search.disable.individual.search.restrictions.for.members.of property can only be used if flexible.search.disable.individual.search.restrictions is set to true. The value of this property should be a comma-separated list of group IDs.

If you don't specify any user groups as a value of this property, individual search restrictions will be disabled for all users.

Give your customers a smoother experience when accessing quote information by reducing unnecessary database calls. This optimization helps when customers retrieve lists of quotes.

Previously, when customers accessed quote information, the default QuotePopulator was used. This method, which fully populates every quote, can be inefficient and costly, especially in B2B contexts. It also generates a large number of database queries. To reduce unnecessary database calls and enhance the user experience, four toggles are introduced:

• The toggle toggle.quotePopulatorSkipHasCart.enabled is added to de.hybris.platform.commercefacades.constants.CommerceFacadesConstants under the commercefacades extension. It skips populating the hasCart field while generating QuoteData.
• The toggle toggle.quotePopulatorSkipOrderCode.enabled is added to de.hybris.platform.commercefacades.constants.CommerceFacadesConstants under the commercefacades extension. It skips populating the orderCode field.
• The toggle toggle.quoteHelperSkipRetrieveCartReference.enabled is added to de.hybris.platform.b2bocc.constants.B2boccConstants under the b2bocc extension. It skips retrieving the cartReference again in QuoteHelper.
• The toggle toggle.findOrderByUserAndQuoteReference.enabled is added to de.hybris.platform.commerceservices.constants.CommerceServicesConstants under the commerceservices extension. It uses both the customer information and quoteReference to retrieve an order instead of using quoteReference only.

The enhanced cart removal cronjob now deletes expired saved carts, preventing them from being restored as session carts.

The cart removal cronjob deletes expired saved carts directly instead of restoring them as session carts. To enable the deletion, a toggle named toggle.expiredSavedCartDeletion.enabled is add to the project.properties under acceleratorservices.

Orphan removal in many-to-many relations for ServiceLayer Direct (SLD) mode has been improved, ensuring updates only retain current relationships and keep your data consistent.
