In Deal Designer the some values for calculating taxes and discount were rounding out incorrectly. These have been updated so that those values in Deal Designer and Discover align.

A new feature is being deployed that will allow for bulk management of users in the Deal Designer application.

Google is moving to a new Identity Service which requires an update to the Login feature for the Buyers Page so that it conforms to Google's new Identity Services workflow. For the Buyers Page, there is no change due to the nature of the app.
