5. Now, separate debug files related to shipping
and payment will be created Sometimes we know
functional areas of defect but cant trace the
exact lines of system generated entries that
explain the problem. Log files are vital for
debugging.

6. Enhanced ACL-aware search in Admin
panel Access Control List(ACL) is another name
for layered security. This type of extensible
search function displays fetched data only if
admin user has permissions to see it. As a
consequence, Super Admin is notified of the
actions undertaken by the current admin. He can
also change the results to show 404 page when a
particular Admin doesnt have right to look into
it. This treatment can be applied to existing
Admin users as well as to those to be created in
future.
