Bulk delete and bulk update

[Zaphod]

Hi - any help on bulk deleting and updating would be appreciated

i have a shop with 20 000 products and i cant see any way to mass delete products . Every month i get a csv file from suppliers , with single column of supplier codes that have to be deleted . i have seen something called bulk remove in the BO tools>import but i cant see how to get it working

i also receive another csv file to update product prices and quantity , but it is sent in the format of 3 columns - supplier_code , price and quantity . The import feature in BO has to have supplier # , supplier reference and name as mandatory fields , but i do not have these included in the csv - i only have the supplier #

Would it not be better to work on the database directly - ie get a PHP programmer to write me a script to update the database directly ( i am not a programmer so am am not sure if this is a good solution )

Thanks in advance - BTW Prestashop RulZ
