Variant Group vs Product Mapping #3

Closed shaabans closed 7 years ago

shaabans commented 7 years ago

When importing with Prestaneo, under "Import of variant" I am uploading a CSV exported from Akeneo's Variant Groups, and under "Import of product" I am uploading a CSV exported from Akeneo Products.

Some aspects of this work ... the result in PrestaShop is that PrestaShop Products (which correspond to Akeneo Variant Groups) are created with the correct Combinations (which correspond to Akeneo Products) . However, the "description" and "short_description" fields from the Akeneo Products export seem to be lost, and are not imported into PrestaShop.

Prestaneo's mapping configuration only allows me to associate "description" and "short_description" fields for the "Import of product" section, but it seems like these should be associated with the "Import of variant" section, since Akeneo Variant Groups correspond to Prestashop Products, which is where this information should reside.

Any guidance on how to get product description and short description into PrestaShop is greatly appreciated!

I think I've figured this out ... fields such as description, short_description, meta_description, name, etc are language fields, and need a suffix indicating the language and locale, such as "-en_US," in order to be read.
