Managing an online store on PrestaShop can make the task of regularly updating products, prices, and stock levels quite challenging, especially when the data comes from different sources in various formats. Our new module solves this problem by allowing you to import products, categories, combinations, prices, and stock levels from CSV, EXCEL, XML, JSON files, and even via URL. This simple solution will help automate processes and significantly ease the management of your store.
Key Features and Benefits of the Module
Wide Range of Data Formats
Our module supports the import of products, categories, combinations, prices, and stock levels through various formats, including CSV, EXCEL, XML, JSON, and even via URL. This provides flexibility and ease of use, regardless of the data source.
Data Import Optimization
Prices and stock levels are separated into individual import objects, allowing you to update only the necessary data. This accelerates the process and reduces server load, ensuring smoother store performance.
Automated Import Process
With support for CRON and CLI, you can automate the data import process. Set up regular updates for products and categories to keep your store up-to-date without extra effort. For instance, you can update products and categories monthly, while updating stock and prices daily.
Import Queue Management
The module allows you to manage data import queues to prevent server overload. You can prioritize data updates so that files from different suppliers are loaded sequentially, which is particularly useful for large stores with extensive catalogs.
User-Friendly Interface
The module’s intuitive interface allows you to easily review imported data and map it to the relevant fields in your store. The visual action log provides real-time updates on the import process, making it simple to track progress.
Protection from Duplicate Imports
The module prevents the re-launch of imports if the process is already underway, safeguarding against unnecessary actions and duplicate data. The import progress is displayed as a percentage for more efficient tracking.
Error Logging
In case of issues, the module keeps a detailed error log, making it easy to track any problems that arise during import. This ensures quick response and stable store operations.
Multilingual Support
The module allows for importing data for multiple languages, making it ideal for international stores. You can use separate files for each language or a single file for all languages.
Flexible Product Matching
The module supports precise product matching by reference or name, minimizing the chances of errors when importing large data volumes.
