Cannot load combinations in Multi-Store

[prestatent]

Prestashop 1.5.4.1

 

Hi

 

I am testing locally the multi-store feature of prestashop. So far so good. However I've run into a problem when importing CSV files.

 

The scenario is as follows:

 

I have 2 groups of users:

 

- Group 1 can see all products in all categories

- Group 2 can see some of the same products as Group 1 in all categories

 

My solutions was to use multi-store, meaning all the products are imported into Group 1 store, but only some products are imported into Group 2 store.

 

The problem arises when I want to import combinations for both stores for the same product as exists in both stores. For example:

 

For Group 1 Shop

-------------------------------------------------------

Product ID = 1 on Product Import File

Product ID = 1 on Combinations Import File

 

For Group 2 Shop

-------------------------------------------------------

Product ID = 1 on Product Import File

Product ID = 1 on Combinations Import File

 

 

The CSV import will only match on the Product ID = "1" of the first product imported and will only import the combination for this store.

 

When trying to import the same record for Group Shop 2, it will not be imported event though there is no error message. The reason is that the import process tries to match combination records on the Product ID.

 

Is this a bug, a flaw or correct behaviour ?
