Parameter Name
Description
Import Folder Path
RATEX.ProductImport.Staples.ImportFolderPath
Path on the server to the folder
that holds the Staples import files. If you have any question as to what this
should be, please contact support.
Root Category ID
RATEX.ProductImport.Staples.RootCategoryID
Set this to the Category ID
under which all Staples categories will be added. If this is set to 0 or left
blank, the top-level Staples categories will be added as top-level categories
on your site. If any top-level categories with the same names already exist,
they will be used as Staples categories, and any second-level Staples
categories will be added as subcategories. If this is set to -1 (or any
negative number), categories will not be imported.
SKU Prefix
RATEX.ProductImport.Staples.SkuPrefix
Prefix to add to the Product
Block Label (for products) and to SKUs (for variants). This should not be
left blank, and should not be changed once the first import is run, as it
helps to differentiate imported values from those sent from VR.
Variant Name Format
RATEX.ProductImport.Staples.VariantNameFormat
Format to use for the name of
variants imported from Staples. Use {x} as placeholders, where x is a 0-based
field number from the Staples import file. For example, to combine the 4th,
6th and 9th fields, separated by hyphens, the format would be: {3}-{5}-{8}
VR Product Type
RATEX.ProductImport.Staples.VRProductType
Set this to the VR Product Type
(GM, TX, or TR) to use for the imported products.
Enable this to append the text
in the "notification.admin.staplessubject" String Resource to the
subject line of the New Order notification sent to the admin if there are
Staples products on the order.
The number of processing threads
to use when importing product images during the Staples import. The
recommended value is 4. If you are importing many images, you can set this
higher, but the maximum value is 10. If you set this too high, it may have an
impact on your site performance. If you set this too low, the import could
take a long time to run.
