Business value

High availability and high performance are expected for all e-commerce sites today. To help meet these expectations, Dynamics 365 Commerce e-commerce sites will no longer have to rely on real-time communication with Commerce HQ for creating and editing customers. By enabling parity between creating a customer in synchronous mode and asynchronous mode, businesses can choose asynchronous mode for creating customers, thereby avoiding real-time communication with Commerce HQ.

Feature details

This feature adds the following capability while creating customers asynchronously:

  • The ability to capture title and affiliations derived from the default customer record, and second contact information such as phone and email, while creating customers asynchronously.
