In Automated Produkt Import when you're updating attributes with stock value or price etc. You need alway product id to identify attribute. I got only attribute reference and stock qty from my supplier and cannot then udate the stock without matching the product ID with the reference, which is impossilble when there is a list of 5000 entries.

Would be great if there is a way to identify attribute with only reference number.

it makes sense to include this task in the overall package of improvements in the next release.
I'll try to discuss this suggestion with our development team. Please contact me next week after weekend.

Hi Sergiy, I was about to contact you today about this. When is the new released planned to be released? Can this be a minor code change perhaps to get rid of this issue?

Hello Henrik!
I've got a discussion with our development team about this suggestion.
From one hand, this is really usefull suggestion.
but from another hand the implementation of such feature will take a long tome.
I guess we can talk about implementation of this suggestion after official Release only.
It'll be in Jan. 2015.

any progres in this improvment?

We daily update stock and have only reference from supplier, so every day new id of combinations is generated. I'm afraid that some day my MySql will stop working or at least start doing very slow.

today we are at 6351000.

Because now when I export combinations only first line of certain ID has ID in the field. If I clear this table I won't be able to import again to start over from number 1.

hello

this is csv file, but not with all the data as it has 47000 line (only from one supplier, other has again 40000 lines)

this kind of data we import each day to refresh stock.
