Error in attribute import: "The attribute code 'weight' is reserved by system." #122

Closed magentix98 closed 8 years ago

magentix98 commented 8 years ago

I try to import "attribute" data from akeneo. I get the following error message:

The attribute code 'weight' is reserved by system. Please try another attribute code.

Seems like "weight" is not allowed to have in akeneo. Is this correct? Can this be fixed? best wishes, hhein

@magentix98 You can have weight in the Akeneo PIM, but you won't be able to re-import it to Magento as Magento already has it, hence the duplicity.

Just exclude it from the rest of your attributes when you import them all into Magento.

ok thanks. This means, if I need to maintain "weight" in akeneo and transfer that information to magento I will need to create another attribute for it, like i.e. "akeneo_weight", and ignore the standard "weight" attribute in magento. correct?

It depends how you are bringing your data from Akeneo into Magento. If you are using PIMGento I believe you can match up the attributes to system ones.

Hi,

Right, you can match attributes data between Magento and Aekeno in configuration (system > Configuration > Catalog > Pimgento > Product > Match attributes). Example:
