B2B e-commerce comes with a different set of requirements than traditional online retail. Businesses need to manage company accounts, customer-specific pricing, purchasing permissions, shared catalogs, quotes, and repeat orders — all within a single commerce environment. That is where Adobe Commerce B2B, often referred to as Magento B2B, becomes especially useful. Its native Magento 2 B2B features are designed to support complex buying relationships and give wholesalers, manufacturers, and enterprise merchants more control over how their customers purchase.

But managing B2B data can be challenging when your catalog, customer, ERP, CRM, or other business systems need to stay synchronized. Magento’s native data tools do not provide the same level of flexibility for importing and exporting B2B entities as they do for many standard store data types.

This is where the Improved Import & Export extension by Firebear adds value. It extends Magento’s data transfer capabilities with dedicated support for Magento 2 B2B entities, making it easier to exchange companies, shared catalogs, negotiable quotes, requisition lists, and other data with external systems.

In this guide, we break down the main Adobe Commerce B2B features, explain how Magento 2 B2B functionality works, and show how to import and export key B2B data efficiently.

Managing Magento shipping tracking is one of the most important parts of providing a smooth post-purchase experience. Customers expect real-time updates on their orders, and while Magento 2 makes it easy to display product details, handling Magento 2 order tracking numbers is far more complex. By default, the platform doesn’t allow you to import tracking data directly from external systems, making it difficult to automate integrations with shipping providers.

That’s where the Improved Import & Export extension changes the game. With it, you can seamlessly import and export tracking numbers in bulk, connect Magento 2 to carrier platforms, and keep order statuses updated automatically. This means no more manual data entry, fewer errors, and a faster order fulfillment process — all while enhancing Magento 2 shipment tracking for your customers.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through importing and exporting Magento order tracking information step by step. You’ll discover all the tracking-related features the extension offers, learn how to set up automation, and explore additional tools to keep your shipping operations running efficiently.

Need to structure static content in Magento 2? That’s where the Magento 2 CMS page hierarchy comes into play. Exclusive to Adobe Commerce, this feature allows you to organize CMS pages into a parent-child structure, improving both frontend navigation and backend content management. While Open Source users are limited to flat page lists, Commerce merchants can create nested page layouts, define pagination, and control how menus appear on the storefront — all through a visual hierarchy of nodes.

In the following guide, we explore the Magento 2 page hierarchy in detail. We start by introducing the concept and explaining how it fits into the overall CMS system. You’ll learn how the node-based structure works, how to create and assign pages to it, and how to control menu layouts and pagination behavior. From there, we shift to data management, showing you how to import and export the Magento 2 CMS page hierarchy using the Improved Import & Export extension. Since the default platform offers no native way to transfer this content type in bulk, we also outline the extension’s role in automating these tasks.

Whether you’re building a content-heavy site section or migrating page structures between stores, the Magento page hierarchy — combined with flexible import/export tools — gives you full control over how your content is organized and deployed.
