-- HikaShop version -- : 3.0.0
-- Joomla version -- : 3.6.5
-- PHP version -- : 7.0

I'm trying to generate variant of some product on my website.
I use libre office to work on csv.
This is my step:
1) I create the main product with all the parameter
2) I generate 2 variants for example
3) I export the csv, so i can have an example
4) i add other variant adding row similar to the vaiants creted by hikashop, inserting in product_parent_id the product code of the main product
5) Import the csv.

Now i have a problem: i don't see the variants if i open a main product, and i don't see the variant finding by product code on the root.

If i try to export csv, i see all the variant created, but on product_parent_id column there are only "0" and no the value i wrote before.

Is that because i use thi particular product code for my Main products?

ex.
aaaaaa-bbbbb-qqqqqq
aaaaaa-bbbbb-wwwww
aaaaaa-bbbbb-yyyy

The caracter "-" create problem?

Hi,

No, I don't think that's the problem.
Either you missed something in the CSV you're importing, or you're trying to import variants for values of your characteristics which don't exist.
The import system cannot yet create new values for characteristics.
So you need to pre create them so that you can then import products and variants using these characteristics/values.

SOLVED:

When i upload csv, i delete before rows with main product, but it's a not good thing.

Now all works good. Thanks
