These are also vital for e-commerce websites. Here are the following improvements in the 2.4.6 release:

Magento Open Source now correctly calculates the grand total for refunds of orders with a discount for shipping.

Online buyers can now add an additional item to their cart when their cart contains the minimum quantity of the simple product.

Magento Open Source now returns an informative message when an addProductsToCart mutation fails when adding a product to the cart with insufficient permissions.

Magento Open Source no longer throws an error on the cart page when Quick Order is used to add a product in a quantity that exceeds available inventory.

The product list widget no longer displays incorrect or cached prices for a logged-in shopper. The price displayed in the home page widget now matches the shopper’s address and is updated when the shopper updates the address. Previously, the browser cache did not update product prices on the home page based on customer group tax rules.

The Compare Products list feature now works correctly in a multi-website deployment and is dependent on the website.

The category page is no longer empty when the Allow All Products Per Page setting is enabled.

As you can see, Magento 2.4.6 is the most recent version with numerous changes in later areas, and developers and retailers are most excited about it. Additionally, Magento 2.4.6 has a number of new features that make it easier for merchants to manage various B2B enhancements quickly, such as good password hygiene, two-factor authentication, and more. Therefore, the decision to upgrade to Magento 2.4.6 for your company depends on a number of variables, including the size of the company, the budget, the needs of the company, and the current version of Magento.
