Uploading Data for Advanced Ordering Options

[johnpowell]

We recently hired a third party to code a tool which would export sub-sku QOH from Monsoon Stoneedge to a text file for upload into Shopsite to update individual QOH for items with advanced ordering options. We hit a brick wall, however, when we we discovered that you can not selectively upload just one field of data for advanced menu options without overwriting the other fields. We were then told by Lexiconn support that they have no way to modify the import
process and ShopSite will always update a field that's included on the upload, and all the fields are required to properly upload Advanced ordering options. This is especially problematic, as many of the fields such as Low Stock Threshold, Price Modifier, and Weight Modifier, do not have an analog in StoneEdge. We would like to be able to have Shopsite only update the fields if they are present in the update file, and not overwrite every field.

We still have no solution for this. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

Changes where made to the uploading of order options several months ago for XML, Tab delimited and Excel format uploads. This should allow you to only include the options that need to be changed in your upload, unchanged options can be left out.

So if your store is running the latest release ShopSite 11sp2 r5.1 (or 11sp2 r4) try again and see if your problem still exists.
