Hi Forum,

Anyone who has tried using the scheduled task add-in 'Assign products to one or more groups, depending on some rules'?

What I would like to achieve is that my products automatically are published into ecom groups from PIM. A PIM field with the group names should be the basis of the publication.

Is this possible?

I have tried digging deeper into it. But when I get to the Assignment rules part, I am a bit confused on how this works. Is it only possible to set this up to publish to a shop and not ecom groups within the shop? Or how does the last part 'parameter mapping' work?

 

Thanks

/Helene

Hi Helene,

The new "Auto assign products" are made to automaticcally place Products in Groups/Categories, based on rules and parameters, and controlled by a Schedule Task

There can be used two modes, "Group mode" and "Query mode", and both Mode use "Group Parameters" to identify the Products.

"Group mode" are the most Simple one to use, and where Parameters only are defined on the "Destination Group"

"Query mode" are more flexible and can be made more complex. Parameters are still defined on the "Destination Group", but are made as CustomerGroupFields

I hope that helps you

/Søren

Hi Søren,

Thank you very much for the quick response.

Where are the group parameteres set? Is it in the query?

Do you have an example?
