In many cases, multiple products share the same information.
For example, the only difference between the size 5 ring and the size 5.25 ring will be the Ring Size value. The rest of the product fields (such as Collection, Metal, Gemstone, some commercial information, Related products etc.) stays the same. For such products we want to set the shared information in bulk.
The "Copy data" function allows quickly set value(s) for multiple fields. The functionality is available in Products and Gemstones pages.
- Select products/gemstones to update the fields
- Go to System Actions -> Copy Data
Update translations: if using Valigara in multiple languages, this option pastes the copied value in all available languages. F.i. if you copy the City value = New York, checking the "Update Translations" will propagate this value in English, Spanish translations of the field.
Overwrite: defines whether to update fields, which already have values. When checked, all fields are updated, while when unchecked, fields with existing values are skipped. Only fields without values are updated.
There are 4 Copy Data modes:
- Between Products - Copy field values from source product to destination products
- Between Fields - Copy field values from the source field(s) to the destination field(s) inside the product
- Set New - assign/overwrite field values in the products
- Aggregate - combine values from multiple fields into one field
Languages selector sets the language for which the Copy Data operation is executed. So, if your account is set up to work with English, Spanish, and Hebrew, you can select the language to perform the operation.
Between Products
This option copies selected field values from one product to another(s).
