Adding An Extra MSRP Field to Easy Populate CSV Files

[Gamermatt]

I have an online oscommerce store with easy populate installed. I also have another contrib that allows me to give MSRPs for each product (found here). When I prepare an excel spreadsheet with thousands of products to upload into easy populate (as a csv), there is no field (column) to add the MSRPs into. So, after I upload a large database of products, I must go through each product in the oscommerce admin panel and add each individual MSRP separately. I was wondering if there is any way to add another field into my csv files where I can give the MSRP for each product before I upload it all into easy populate.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Matt

This is probably the wrong forum (you are talking about Easy Populate, which is a 2.2 contribution), but what you want is only possible by editing the code of Easy Populate. There is no automated way to add columns.

Thanks for the response... I'll have to look into it... Should I ask this question elsewhere?

No, once you ask, it's best to keep in a single thread. Plus, it looks like a moderator moved the thread for you.

 

If you're going to try the coding yourself, you can look at products_image and products_weight for comparable fields. MSRP should work similarly to those.
