Alternative groups


Reply
We've the following task: products from the shop are grouped by plain
list of groups: group1, group2, group3, ... But we should group also
products by "collections", i.e. something like alternative groups. So, a
product belongs to some group and to some collection. Is there some method
to store this configuration in eCom?

Yes. There are at least two :o)

One is to simply create more groups manually and associate producs manually. This plain hardwork.
Another way is to use the integration module and simply import new product relations from a CSV file or access database.

I've done that with some 13.000 products from a CSV file grouped in two different ways.
You can do the whole lot in Excel, import i to Access and the into the DW database.

The files in DW to populate is EcomGroups, EcomShopGroupRelation and EcomGroupProductRelation.
