Bulk update

[DerekHJ]

I might be missing something in the forums, but can some one tell me how to bulk update? I need to update quantities and price for thousands of items daily from a CSV file. I tried a straight import but I ended up with duplicate products. My appologies if this has allready been discussed else where but I couldn't find anything.

The only workaround I found so far was to delete everything (an option when you're at the import pane), but that's not a real option. I need to edit a whole lot of items

If someone knows how to update records based on ID (at least that'll do it for me), please share!

Thanks!

Woohaa

I've found what goes wrong (in my case anyway). The problem is that if I import an upload.csv file _including_ imagepaths it goes terribly wrong.
Run the same import again with 'ignore this column' on the 'Image URLS' dropdown and it works like a charm. This does not repair the bug, but it's something I can work with by using a sript in the offline-db to check if an imageURL is already there.
