How check which employee add product or edit content

[przemokon]

Hi!

We have a shop on Prestashop version 1.5.5.0 . Is it possible to check wich of employee added a product to the shop? Sometimes products in shop have little bad info and i wanna know who make the mistake. For sure we can't find this info in BO, but maybe is it possible to find that in db?

No it's not.

Not without modifying the db and the class / controller files.

And is it hard to modify these files/db? Maybe you seen somewhere a solution how to do that?

[PhpMadman]

Yes, a bit.

You would need to add 2 fields to the ps_product, to store employe id, one for add and one for update.

And then those fields need to be added to Product class.

And then in the controller or the class, you need to tell it to set the id at add / update.

Then you also need to retrieve the fields to display them in BO.

 

I don't think anyone has done anything similar, so probably wont find any similar solution.

And I don't have time to do it.

i think that it will be a bit more complicated.

sometimes many employees can change product.

what's then?

i think that for this it will be necessary to add separate table with:

id_product, id_employee, date

 

then you will be able to store information about all changes for product.

but as the previous speaker said: it will be a bit complicated, especially part with coding.

it can be easily achieved like that

 

add a filed in employee table supplier_id , 

 

connect that employee table and supplier table through this filed, i mean associate supplier id with employee id

 

then create a employee profile with only catalog privileges

 

change the code in "AdminProductsController" in where clause check which supplier,  

 

this will show only that employee linked with the supplier id

 

 

can anyone please tell me where to set the cookie for new employee table filed "supplier_id" 

 

or can be done by entering employee id as supplier id while inserting the product data.
