Note: The rework dimensions will override both the default dimensions and those set in extra code 5 if a shipping box rework item has been scanned on the order.

Order Overview: Batch & Serial Search

Enhanced the search on the order overview so that a user can search for "serial:" followed by an exact serial number to see the order upon which that serial was scanned. Same for "batch:". 

Note: this is exact matches only.

Improved the performance of the Order/List endpoint.

Veeqo: Client user role

Custom Commercial Invoice: Description tag

Added a fix so that the description tag will now pull the description from the product instead of the customs description.

Shopify: Account Connections

Updated method to get the access token from Shopify to force an "offline" token. When not specifying a type, the token should already be offline, customers will be required to re-install the Mintsoft App in Shopify to get the token again.
