In short: This week brings critical warnings about sending incorrect documents in the Admin and problems with company customer registrations. Additionally, a legally important adjustment for the warranty display in the checkout has been released.
Summary
- Warning: Documents in the Admin can be swapped when switching quickly between orders.
- Company customers can partially order without a mandatory VAT ID or are blocked during registration.
- Performance losses in the checkout during long-running discount campaigns in version 6.7.10.2.
- Legally compliant EU warranty notices are integrated directly into the checkout starting with version 6.7.15.1.
- Planned fixes for 6.7.16.0 concern cross-selling, warranty conditions, document numbers, rule conditions, product variants, the sales channel's default currency, and SEO URLs.
Known bugs confirmed by Shopware
- Document shipping: When switching quickly between two orders in the Admin, documents from the previous order may be displayed. This can lead to an invoice being sent to the wrong customer. Status: open.
- VAT ID for company customers: Company customers can complete orders without providing a VAT ID, even if it is marked as a mandatory field for the respective country. Status: open.
- B2B registration: When billing and delivery countries differ, the VAT ID validation pattern in the browser is incorrectly adopted from the delivery country, which blocks the form submission even if the data is correct on the server side.
- Checkout performance: For long-running discount campaigns, Shopware recounts all past orders of that campaign during every checkout, which increasingly slows down the ordering process. Affects version 6.7.10.2. Status: open.
- Sitemap generation: If the 'SwagCommercial' plugin (product bundles) is used, sitemap generation fails because incorrect routes are assigned. Affects versions up to 6.7.15.1. Status: open.
- Registration: When accessibility adjustments are activated, the message 'Input should not be empty' appears incorrectly during registration, even if everything is filled out correctly. Affects version 6.6.10.21. Status: open.
- B2B address management (Commercial Extension): Employees in organizational units can incorrectly edit standard addresses of the parent customer account.
Fixed and already released
- EU warranty notices: The display of warranty notices can now be integrated directly into the checkout via a switch in the settings, instead of only via a link or a modal. Released with Shopware 6.7.15.1.
Fixed, coming with the next update
- Cross-selling: Error messages on the product page caused by empty dynamic product groups in cross-selling (product recommendations) will be fixed. Expected with version 6.7.16.0.
- Warranty conditions: New fields for detailed warranty conditions or links in the checkout will be added. Expected with version 6.7.16.0.
- Document generation v2: Document numbers will no longer increase if the creation of a document fails. Expected with version 6.7.16.0.
- Rule Builder: The category path will be displayed again in the rule conditions for products to facilitate selection when categories have the same name. Expected with version 6.7.16.0.
- Product variants: Purchase stop inheritance has been corrected; variants with zero stock will no longer remain incorrectly unsellable if the "clearance" option on the main product is deactivated. Expected with version 6.7.16.0.
- PayPal Express: Customers who cancel the PayPal login will no longer be redirected to an incorrect URL. Fix comes with an update to the PayPal extension.
Outlook for Shopware 6.7.16.0
For milestone 6.7.16.0 (planned for 02.11.2026, dates may shift), the following completed changes are planned:
- The default currency of the sales channel will be correctly recognized again, fixing errors in plugins.
- A technical error in the generation of SEO URLs, which could lead to indexing crashes, has been fixed.
- The aforementioned fixes for cross-selling, warranty conditions, document numbers, rule conditions, and product variants are also included.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are documents from another order suddenly displayed in the Admin?
This is a confirmed bug that occurs when switching quickly between orders. To avoid this, the page in the Admin should always be completely reloaded (F5) before documents are sent.
Why can company customers order without a VAT ID despite it being a mandatory field?
Shopware has confirmed that there is currently a bug that allows the VAT ID check for company customers in certain countries to be bypassed.
What was changed regarding the warranty notices in the checkout?
According to Shopware, the display of EU warranty notices has been integrated directly into the checkout because displaying them solely via links or modals is not legally permissible. Additionally, new fields for detailed warranty conditions are being added.
What should you do now?
- Apply update: Install Shopware 6.7.15.1 to obtain the legally compliant display of the EU warranty in the checkout.
- Adjust Admin workflow: Always reload the page in the Admin with F5 before sending documents from an order to avoid incorrect shipping.
- Check orders: Review your orders from company customers in countries where the VAT ID is a mandatory field.
- B2B check: Review your B2B offers with high discounts as well as the B2B ordering process for self-approvals by employees.
- Shopware Payments: Errors with recurring credit card purchases and orders with incomplete addresses have been fixed, although the exact release version is still unclear.
