RE: Localization in new Store commerce APP
Hi Martin,
"This means that if the customer want to go live this year, they need to keep development in RetailSDK and migrate later?"
Correct.
"Or can they manually import the parts of solution from Retail SDK to Commerce SDK, similar as it is possible for the pricing extensions?"
This is not possible, because there are sealed Commerce localization features for Norway that cannot be enabled with the new extensibility approach.
In addition, we had a similar discussion for Germany some time ago. This problem currently exists for all Commerce localizations provided by Microsoft.
We got an update on the Retail SDK deprecation plans from the core Commerce team. Per the most recent White Paper, deprecation of the Retail SDK will happen in Spring 2023 the earliest (latest supported version is 10.0.32) to give customers at least six months to migrate from the moment we have full parity on the new Commerce SDK.
Moreover, if localization delivery dates slip, so will the deprecation date. This of course applies to Retail deployable package and combined POS, Hardware station, and Cloud Scale unit installers too. The date in the deprecation notice will be fixed.
