Use stock codes as product ID's?


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I need to bulk uodate cost prices on our website. Eventually there will be over 20k products on the website and the cost prices will change frequently.

 

I have tested and using CSV import with the product ID it is possible to update the cost/selling prices, so that is great.

 

The problem I have will be that i have so many products it will be difficult to track which product has which ID as new products will be added frequently

 

Ideally I would like to be able to use the stock code reference as the ID, this would make things much simpler.

 

I tried this but the import failed. Stock codes will be are alphanumeric. Is it possible to allow the product ID to be alphanumeric?

 

Thank you in advance for any help :)

It is not possible to add product id and made it numerical. As there is relationship id_product with other table . You have to build some kind of custom module to achieve the goal which you are referring.

 

OK, thank you for that information, in that case is there a way of updating product details based in product reference? I have tried this but it will just add it as a new product :(
