Adding a product from a new supplier
File format:
Task 1 -
First setup - XML - for adding a product
Second setup - updating stock levels through the price list. Need to configure it, as we will add the price list ourselves
It is required to correctly match the supplier's fields with the fields in the website database.
Set up scheduled import (cron)
Additionally, Task 2 -
There is a ready supplier setup. But they changed the logic
Instead of quantity where a number was set, they put available="true", if the product is not in stock and not in the feed
Need to make changes so that their feed updates stock availability correctly
Client's review of cooperation with Vasil Homenko
Add a new product from the supplier and set up automatic product updates via cron.The work was done excellently ✅
The freelancer set up two tasks for the import module:
1️⃣ The first — creating an XML configuration for adding new products. All fields are correctly matched, the structure fully complies with the supplier's requirements.
2️⃣ The second — setting up stock updates via the price list: all nuances are considered, flexible configuration was made, with the ability to upload the price list independently.
A cron is also configured — everything updates on schedule without failures.
Quick communication, polite interaction, full understanding of the task, and a professional approach. I recommend cooperation! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

3426 10 0 Hello, Evgeny!
I am ready to perform the task of setting up product import into OpenCart via the Universal Import/Export Pro module with cron integration.
What I can implement:
🔹 Task 1: New supplier
Adding a new XML price list:
I will configure XML import for the new supplier.
…
I will correctly match all fields (name, price, article, availability, etc.) with the fields in your store's database.
Setting up regular updates:
I will implement stock and price updates on a schedule via cron.
I will leave instructions for adding new price lists — you will be able to upload new price lists yourself.
Validation and testing of import:
I will check that products are updated correctly without duplicates.
I will set up an error log (optional) in case of failures.
🔹 Task 2: Fixing the logic of the old supplier
I will make changes to the current setup:
Instead of quantity, now focus on available="true" → product availability.
I will implement filtering: if available="false" or the tag is missing — do not import as available.
If necessary, I will add exception handling (for example, if the feed is empty or the structure has changed).
