Please make custom attribute with Dropdown input type available to products grid and can be used as filter.

Currently the custom attribute with dropdown input type, example, Brand, is not allowed to add into the product grid and filter.

Please make this feature available

You can use Atributes Window here - (screenshot - http://screencast.com/t/qUPVB4OlUz ) to add necessary atributes to Product Grid.
After that you can use drop-down filter in Coulmn header - screenshot - http://screencast.com/t/bTHwER3vPMg
Note: The number of Attributes depend on your Store Manager - PRO or Enterprise Edition - see comparision table here - http://www.mag-manager.com/order/

Pro version works with Attributes windows.
But with some restrictions.
There are a lot of new features will be in Enterprise Edition of Store Manager.
It's up to you - what version of Store Manager to use.

P.S. All together: Standard, PRO, Enterprise edition work with Community version of Magento all together. :-)

It should be possible for people with the professional version to add dropdown or price attributes to the grid.

Hello again Teodor.
Well, right now you can use Custom SQL after import with conditional SQL.
Something like this was described for another Store Manager - VirtueMart Store Manager. - http://virtuemart-manager.com/useful-articles/tips-tricks/what-are-custom-sqls-and-how-to-manage-virtuemart-data-using-them/
Idea the same.

Hello again,
I will check but it will be ok if I can identify products by any drop down attribute.
And how to disable only products from the same manufacturer?

Alex Pryshlivskiy agent wrote
Something like this - this is example of logics
Update product_status = 0 Where product_manufacturer = "LG"
Hm.. more interesting question - do you want to change status for new products only ?
In this case you should to check add_date filed to identify new products.

ok, here it is my comment below

1. "And is it normal when importing products from XML file always is running backup script?"
------
We don't force backup before import.
But!
If you have bridge connection or you have selected "cached import" we operate according to the following scheme:
step 1
extract of whole dump of store to your PC
step 2
import csv file locally on PC
send 3
send imported data back to the server

In this case you'll be able to speed up import time.
This option is very useful if you need to operate with huge amount of data.

If you work with direct connection to Database you can directly without "force backup"
Please note, this is not backup, this is mirror of data on you PC to speed up import here (locally)

We have already implemented such feature in another type of Store Manager - import filter by brand with stock control.

Similar task was added in our future plan of development.
Implementation date - Winter- Spring 2015.
Detailed info will be available after January 2015.
