Hello.

A desktop program is needed for working with price lists and products from various suppliers.

Program description: The program could automatically download price lists via links, parse (analyze) them, store data in a structured database, and provide an interface for product search.
Main features of the program:
- Automatic download of price lists: Regular or on-demand downloading of files from provided links.
- Data parsing: Parsing the content of files (CSV, Excel, XML, etc.) to extract product information (name, price, article number, etc.).
- Data storage: Saving the obtained information in a structured database (for example, SQLite, PostgreSQL, MySQL).
- Search interface: User-friendly interface (desktop program) for entering product name and receiving a list of suppliers offering it, with corresponding prices.
- (Additional): Ability to track availability (if this information is in the price lists), compare prices, edit product descriptions in the product card, support multiple languages in the product card.
- Creating files for upload to Prom.ua: The program should have functionality for automatically generating files in supported Prom.ua formats: Google Sheets, XLS, CSV, YML, XML, as well as archiving them in Zip or Gzip formats if necessary. The file size should not exceed 180 MB. The program must consider the data structure required for uploading products to Prom.ua (e.g., presence of mandatory fields, price formats, etc.). Depending on the capabilities of the Prom.ua API, the program may also support direct data upload via API.

Update #1 from 8 May 2025

Uniqueness of product names and descriptions: The program should have functionality for automatically making product names and their descriptions unique before export. This may include:

Adding prefixes or suffixes: For example, adding the supplier's name, a unique identifier, or a special mark to the product name.
Generating unique description fragments: Adding random or context-dependent phrases to the product description.
Using synonyms: Automatic replacement of some words in the name and description with synonyms (with the ability to customize the synonym dictionary).
Combining information from different fields: For example, merging the product name with the article number or another characteristic to create a unique name.
Configuring uniqueness templates: Providing the user with the ability to define rules for making names and descriptions unique.

Hello!

Ready to develop a desktop application for working with price lists and supplier products for you. I have extensive experience in developing parsers, working with Excel/CSV/XML, API integration, and creating UI applications (in Python/PyQt, C#, or Electron – your choice).

🔧 What is included in the implementation:

Automatic download of price lists via links (HTTP/FTP, Google Drive, etc.).

Parsing data from Excel, CSV, XML (flexible column mapping system).

Database (SQLite or PostgreSQL): all products stored with change history.

Convenient search interface: name, code, filtering by suppliers, sorting by price.

Product card with the ability to edit description, translations, availability, categories.

Generating files for Prom.ua (CSV, YML, XML, XLS), with archiving and a size limit of up to 180MB.

(Optional): Direct upload to Prom.ua via API.

🗓 Implementation timeline:
First prototype — within 10 days
Full implementation with testing — within 20–25 days

📌 The code will be written considering the possibility of further scaling or integration with CRM/ERP.

I will be happy to discuss technical details, interface design preferences, and price list formats — to make the solution as effective as possible specifically for you.
