[Feature Request] The price addition through the custom options are not displayed in OpenERP

[Sharif]

Hi Guys

I'm just testing this connector and I've noticed that if the product has Custom Options enabled with some prices on them, The Connector is not displaying it in Sales Order that is imported to the OpenERP.

How we can handle Custom Options for the products?

Thanks
Sharif

Hi,

I usually recommend to use configurable products rather than custom options when possible, so Magento will put the correct price in the sales API. I'm not sure that we can properly get the extra pricing from the custom options with the Magento's API, if you have any idea, please let us know.

Thanks

Hi Guewen

Thanks for the reply

As for specific of our products (interior Doors) every of our products has bunch of custom options with own SKUs and pricing.

Here is the list of API that magento use for custom options

http://www.magentocommerce.com/api/soap/catalog/catalogProductCustomOption/catalogProductCustomOption.html

Maybe these API commands can be used in connector?

Thanks
Sharif

I changed the status to opinion, this is not a bug but a feature request.

Yes, probably. I think that's a big piece of work though.

Opinion statuses are hidden and the description of the status is "Doesn't fit with the project" which is not accurate. I put it again as "New" for this reason.

I am working on this, too.

For my case there are products with assambly at delivery. There are price updates if this option is checked. They are displayed in OpenERP too.
I use a custom mapper for this which checks in the SO with regex if there is a string "with assambly" and then I check a checkbox on OpenERP SO Line to true.

Also I am working on a solution to display other Option. eg: Product with color blue or red. I noticed that this is given thru the api with the SKU. For example:

Product SKU P23455
if Option Blue with Option name blue
SKU P23455-blue
with option Red with option name red
SKU P23455-red

My plan is to split the sku by the "-" and write the Option in an extra field because they are not displayed by default of the connector.
