Hi Everyone! I hope everyone is doing well. It's no surprise that SMS delivery messages are an important communication channel for B2B and B2C customers.

Recently, I built a Groovy script to send customer-facing SMS-Based delivery notifications using the Twilio SMS API. I decided to leverage out-of-the-box Java libraries that are natively bundled with SAP Commerce instead of adding the Twilio JAR library to the client's long list of custom libraries already used in its SAP Commerce implementation.

Text Game-Based Learning for SAP Commerce in the Public Cloud (CCV2) Migration Projects
Hello Everyone! I recently created an SAP Commerce Business Analyst Simulator to help BAs prepare for SAP Commerce in the Public Cloud (CCV2) migration projects.

Here's the link to access the Simulator: https://hybrisarchitect.com/simulation.html?courseID=ba-ccv2&language=EN La versión …
