Enterprise-grade commerce solution
SAP Commerce Cloud's quarterly drop concentrates on auth flexibility, B2B APIs, and Charon deprecation.

◆Current state
The March release is the dominant signal: a wide quarterly drop covering platform, B2B, SmartEdit, Subscription Billing, and Open Payment Framework. The platform-core changes lean heavily into authentication (configurable JWT signing algorithm, custom token-grant response extensions, redirect URI host placeholder for multi-storefront login). B2B getting a name-search API parameter, SmartEdit shipping a simplified navigation interface alongside the classic, and the announced deprecation of Charon for security reasons round out the visible motion.
◆Where it's heading
SAP is methodically modernizing the security and identity primitives of Commerce Cloud Public Cloud — every release window now includes meaningful auth-flexibility additions. B2B tooling continues to mature with an API-first emphasis. The pattern reads like a deliberate enterprise-grade hardening cycle ahead of the next major version, rather than category-redefining moves.
◆Prediction
Expect more deprecation announcements like Charon as SAP shrinks the security-compliance footprint, and continued B2B API surface expansion. SmartEdit's simplified-vs-classic navigation toggle suggests classic will be deprecated in a future release once adoption metrics on the new path stabilize.

Custom login page supports redirect URI host placeholder
OAuth client login page URIs can now use a placeholder for the redirect URI host, so a single configuration can serve multiple storefronts. Quiet but useful for multi-brand merchants who'd been duplicating client configs.
