Hi guys,.
When using the new combine option, you can turn a flat structure of products into a Product with variants structure. That is almost nice with 2 exceptions:
1. When combining them into a "family" you have to choose one of the existing products top serve as a master but you cannot edit the properties of it. That's sometimes bad becuase that means the parent product will get some proerties from the variant. Most concerning ones are Name and ProductNumber. Of course, you can edit them later on, but it would be a lot easier to do it in the same process
2. Adding a new variant to an existing family. Sometimes, a new import might add a new product that should become a variant of an existing family. RIght now, you cannot add a new product to an existing family. You have to manually add that new option in the family, like adding a new variant, and delete the imported product. That's a bit too complicated and prone to errors.
I would be happy to see at least problem #2 solved in future versions. The sooner, the better. I was hoping that 9.6 would solve it but it seems it is very unlikely.
Thank you,
Adrian
