"There is one other thing I've found so far - The simple products are still not showing prices when I go to their pages. The MSRP function for these items still does not work. I know we talked about editing all of the MSRP prices when we download the items...but is this a separate issue we can fix now or is that part of that process? All of the new items I try to create also will not allow me to put in a visible MSRP."

The previous webmaster created an odd field for MSRP that does not present itself. Let's fix this, so it's usable; displays correctly is useful in calculating discounts and will work with Google Shopping.

It now displays correctly, but it isn't used in these calculations due to how the Theme is made. I think addressing #1 as part of another Phase and simultaneously hitting this would be best.

Understood. As long as we can manipulate that data in spreadsheet form, I'll be ok with moving this later.

Is there a particular benefit to having it be a Product Attribute rather than Custom Meta? Is this a UI/UX decision for users entering Products? Is it so that it can be Filtered by in the Product listings? etc.

If it is moved to an Attribute, a migration script will need to be written to move the data over.
