1. Added new functionality when a person adds a product to their shopping cart to be able to view a complete list of components that are customizable in addition the the pull-down list of components. The customer can gain access to a visual list of components by clicking on the component from the add to cart screen. For instance, if a customer wanted to see a complete list of figure choices for a trophy, they can click the image of the trophy figure next to the pull-down list which will then bring up a window allowing the customer to then choose the figure of their choice. Customers may still use the pull-down list as well
  2. Added a Remove Confirmation message when the “Remove” button is pushed inside the shopping cart. This allows the customer to confirm if they truly want to remove that product from their cart, or cancel the remove operation if they accidently clicked on the Remove button.
  3. Within the ShopKart Administration itself, a new facelift has been given to the whole interface. The New Facelift is just a cosmetic change to enhance the look of the administration interface. Functionality is the same with the exception to the items listed below:
  4. Certain listings within the ShopKart Administration now alternate between light gray and white to help you distinguish where each row starts and ends.
  5. On listings with rows of information, as your mouse cursor moves over a row, that row will highlight helping you to know which row your mouse is hovering over.
  6. When you categorize products into categories, the categorization screen has been changed. Instead of checkboxes next to category names, it is now a scrolling window. To select multiple categories, simply hold down your CTRL key while clicking with the left mouse button to select the categories you wish that product to be categorized into.
  7. Added a new screen for Attribute Groups whereby you can work with all products that use an attribute group. On this screen you can select products using the Attribute Group, or Select all Products NOT using the Attribute Group. The Latter will assist in finding all products that should have the attribute group but do not.

  13. Product Types has been appropriately renamed to product family. From here on out, the term product family will refer to product types.
  14. Several new fields have been added to Product families. These new fields are used for creating data categorization into data feeds to ShopZilla, PriceGrabber and Google, Shopping.com Product Search. These new fields allow you to map a Product Family to a particular category within each of these shopping networks. It is important to initialize these fields before doing an export into these shopping networks
  15. The Version Number of BizWizard ShopKart is now posted at the top right of each page inside the Administration web site and a link to the version release history page on our forums has also been provided next to the version number.
  16. Font Changes were made to provide a more updated and modern look to each of the free skins inside BizWizard ShopKart. You may notice your sites font will be slightly different then previous.
  17. The ShopKart Administration has been widened to 1000 pixels from the previous 850 pixels – We recommend you use at least a 1024 x 768 screen resolution when using ShopKart Administration.
  18. The Delete Confirmations have changed. When you select a Delete option to delete a record inside ShopKart, you will now get a popup message warning you of the deletion action you have chosen to do. Previously, you were taken to another web page which accomplished the same thing, but was extra steps. The new pop up message will make deletions simpler and faster.
  19. A New Copy Confirmation message has been added to all copy operations. If you click on the Copy Icon, you will be asked to confirm that you wish to copy before proceeding.
  20. When you make a selection choice on the product listing screens using the status, product family, supplier and search fields and navigate away from that page, when you come back that page from any of the sub-pages, those selections will be memorized and retained. If you navigate to the change store or main menu, then you will lose the memorization of those selection values
  21. Added a new field to Product Details to allow for additional shipping charges on a product by product basis. This will be beneficial for products that must be shipped in individual boxes, or have odd sizes and require special packaging. The New Additional Shipping charge will be added to the shipping charge calculated. So if the shipping charge calculated is $8.95 and the additional shipping charge is $20. The Final Shipping charge will be $28.95
  22. Removed Yahoo Product Search and replaced It with the PriceGrabber.com shopping network due to the fact Yahoo has discontinued their online shopping solution and they have now partnered with PriceGrabber.com to provide the shopping comparisons
  23. Updated all the shopping network data feeds to stay compliant with the data feeds requirements.
  24. Added a setup charge option to the Attribute group options thus allowing you to charge a setup charge as well as a per quantity item charge
  25. Added a setup charge to product families allowing you to charge setup fees on products within the family. The setup charge will apply to all products in that family. In addition, you can specify whether you want to charge the setup fee once per family or once per product. If you choose once per family then only the first product in that family that is added to the shopping cart will be charged a setup fee. Example: Lets assume you charge a $5.00 setup charge for medallions. The customer adds 10 first place medallions and 10 2nd place medallions and 10 third place medallions to their cart. If you are charging the setup once per family, the setup fee will be applied to the 1st place medallions only and will not be applied to the 2nd or 3rd place medallions. However, on the other hand if you use charge setup fee once per product, then each line item will get a setup charge. If you do not want to charge a setup fee, simply leave the setup fee at $0.00.
  26. Engraving fees have also been added to ShopKart. Now, you can charge engraving fees by letter or word, and you may also include a certain number of letters or words for free, so engraving fees will only be charged after the free letters or words are used up. If you do not wish to charge engraving fees, simply leave the engraving fees at $0.00. Engraving fees are on Product Families. So if you setup an engraving fee for the product family named Medallions of $.50/letter, then all medallions part of that product family will be assessed this fee. You may also charge different fees for different product families, so while the engraving fee for medallions is $0.50/letter, you may wish to charge only $0.25/letter for acrylic awards
  27. Three new options have been added to each volume discount schedule to control how volume discounts are applied. Maybe you wish to give volume pricing discounts only on product, but not engraving charges, simply set the appropriate values for each volume discount schedule and shopkart will apply the discount percentages based upon how you have configured it.
  28. Added 3 new shopping network data feeds: The Find, shopping.com and NexTag
