Hello Everybody, hoping somebody can point me in the right direction here.
Basically, we're trying to further automate the adding/updating of products to our miva store. Currently we use the flat file import and I'm wondering if there is a way or anyone has found out how to kick it off programmatically?
We have a bunch of custom fields that we utilize and it's sometimes difficult/time consuming for the staff adding products to "map" all the fields in the import.
Since the "mapping" never changes I'd love to be able to kick something off that imports a file using a predetermined criteria (without needing to go in and "map" each field each time)
If we could figure this out it'd really streamline our ability to add products to the web.
Thought about trying to write something in php/mysql but "uncomfortable" with which tables need to be touched when adding a product and figured it'd be easier to find a way to use Miva's built in import feature.
Any ideas? Anybody tried anything similar?
Thanks in advance Miva Community :)
