Mass Create Variants

Post by igavemybest » Thu Dec 31, 2009 10:16 am

I have a bunch of footwear I need to create varients for. Most are size 7-13, so I was wondering if there was a way to create that varient for all the footwear products at the same time, then I could go in and hand edit the products needed that have different size options.

The dataport does variant imports from a csv file now. For new products, I have done the variants first because you can put basic product data in at the same time. Then I match the sku to do the import for the rest of the product data, instead of doing the products first, then figuring out the productid and assigning the variants to that.
