Open as Admin Draft Order Flow Removed
The rep permission Can open draft orders as a Shopify Admin has been removed, along with the button in the Rep Portal that opened a draft order directly in Shopify Admin. The permission no longer appears when you add or edit a rep.
Nothing replaces it. Reps who used that button now work with draft orders in the Rep Portal itself. The three order completion flows are unaffected: completing with an admin's approval, completing with a customer's approval, and completing independently.
September 1–2, 2026
Ownership Exports
The Ownerships page has a new Export button that produces a CSV of every customer, company, and location alongside the rep who owns it on each team. The export runs in the background, and the same button lists running and finished exports with a Download Export link when each one is ready.
Each team gets its own column, showing the owning rep followed by the reps above them. The Ownerships import ignores the extra readable columns the export adds, so you can export the file, edit it in a spreadsheet, and import it back.
Commission Clawbacks on Multi-Currency Orders
Velocity now decides whether an order is fully refunded using the currency the customer was charged in, rather than your store's currency. On stores using Shopify Markets, a full refund taken in another currency could previously go unnoticed, leaving the commission in place.
Clawbacks may now appear on older orders that were affected. Commission amounts themselves are still calculated in your store's currency. Learn more
August 11–31, 2026
Company Visibility Includes Locations
A rep who can see a company can now see that company's locations as well, without needing a separate assignment for each one. Learn more
Smaller Improvements
A customer's default address now appears first in the Rep Portal, both in the address list and when picking an address on a draft order. Country and state dropdowns on address forms show the full list of options instead of a shortened one.
The Sales Manager banner no longer shows an active filter for managers who have no reps beneath them, and company detail pages in the Rep Portal no longer hang when opened directly or refreshed.
