AWS marketplace documentation change

Service: marketplace · 2025-03-26 · Documentation low

Summary

Updated documentation for daily business reports: Added deprecation notice for Customer Reference ID, replaced/added Customer AWS Account Number fields across multiple sections, and made minor grammatical corrections.

Security assessment

The changes primarily involve deprecating Customer Reference ID in favor of AWS Account ID for tracking purposes. While this improves identifier consistency, there is no explicit mention of addressing a security vulnerability or incident. The update appears focused on operational accuracy rather than resolving security flaws.
