Import/Export Issues...

[Duncan Rounding]

I have two issues at the moment trying to set up an hierarchical import file:

1. On exporting from the catalog the Fragment Layout of a fragment is not exported.
Q - How can I specify the Fragment Layout I want for my when importing a new fragment?

2. I notice that product scoped CVs are exported and can be seen at the end of the product field headers but this is not the case for fragment scoped CVs.
Q - How can I import CV values for fragment scoped CVs?

I've reported these to the development team to see if there's a workaround.

Thanks Tracey.

Unfortunately, both of these issues require changes to the c++ code of the program. It seems that the problem is to do with exporting but importing should work ok so the only workaround I can come up with is to set the layouts in the import file manually, they then import on an update or a replace.

For the custom variables, you can add a column against the 'BrochureFragment' header row and manually add in your values for this variable. Again, they will import with an update or a replace.

I did have some odd screen reactions on the fragment I had highlighted when I did the import, whereby the 'layout' or 'properties' tab went blank but clicking to another fragment and back again and the data showed correctly.

Thanks for the feedback Tracey, I'll give that a try.
