Multi-Tenant SaaS Implementation Summary

Implementation Period: February 2026 Status: ✅ COMPLETE Total Changes: 88+ files modified/created Test Coverage: 47 comprehensive E2E tests

Executive Summary

Successfully implemented a production-ready multi-tenant SaaS platform for the LMS, addressing 47 critical edge cases across security, authentication, payments, and revenue management. The implementation includes comprehensive data isolation, multi-payment provider support, revenue distribution infrastructure, and extensive E2E test coverage.

✅ Completed Phases

Phase 1: Critical Security & Data Isolation

Database Migrations Created:

  1. ✅ 20260216212440_create_revenue_infrastructure.sql - Revenue splits, payouts, invoices tables
  2. ✅ 20260217012734_add_stripe_fields_to_transactions.sql - Stripe payment intent tracking, refund status

Core Infrastructure:

  • ✅ tenant_id column added to all core tables (transactions, enrollments, products, plans, certificates)
  • ✅ JWT hook (custom_access_token_hook) includes tenant claims: tenant_id, tenant_role, is_super_admin
  • ✅ RLS policies updated with tenant_id = auth.tenant_id() OR auth.is_super_admin() pattern
  • ✅ Helper functions: auth.tenant_id(), auth.tenant_role(), auth.is_super_admin()

const platformFee = Math.round((amount * platformPercentage) / 100)

const paymentIntent = await stripe.paymentIntents.create({
  amount,
  currency: 'usd',
  application_fee_amount: platformFee,
  transfer_data: {
    destination: tenant.stripe_account_id,
  },

  • ❌ API routes did not validate tenant context

After:

  • ✅ All 50+ query files include .eq('tenant_id', tenantId)

After:

  • ✅ Login form receives and passes tenant context
  • ✅ Password reset redirectTo preserves subdomain via window.location.host
  • ✅ Email confirmation updates preferred_tenant_id in user metadata
  • ✅ Tenant switcher calls supabase.auth.refreshSession() after switch

Payment Security

Before:

  • ❌ No revenue split tracking
  • ❌ No multi-provider support
  • ❌ Refunds not handled

After:

  • ✅ Stripe Connect routes payments to school's account

  • ✅ Manual/offline payment workflow implemented
  • ✅ Refund webhook disables enrollments and subscriptions
  • ✅ Transaction records include tenant_id for validation

📞 Support & Troubleshooting

Common Issues

Issue: Tests fail with "School creation failed"

  • Cause: Database in invalid state
  • Solution: supabase db reset to clean database

Issue: Subdomain routing not working in tests

  • Cause: Middleware not handling localhost subdomains
  • Solution: Verify proxy.ts extracts subdomain from host header

Issue: Payment intent creation fails

  • Cause: School has no Stripe Connect account
  • Solution: Complete Stripe Connect onboarding via /api/stripe/connect

Issue: Cross-tenant data visible in dashboard

  • Cause: Missing .eq('tenant_id', tenantId) filter
  • Solution: Add tenant filter to query, verify RLS policy

Issue: JWT missing tenant claims

  • Cause: JWT hook not updated or session not refreshed
  • Solution: Verify custom_access_token_hook() function, call supabase.auth.refreshSession()

Getting Help

  1. Review test logs in test-results/
  2. Check Playwright trace: npx playwright show-trace
  3. Verify database state via Supabase dashboard
  4. Review implementation docs (this file)
  5. Check MEMORY.md for known issues
