Error Messages Using the CSV Import Module

Subject: Error Messages Using the CSV Import Module - PrestaShop 1.5.4.1

 

I am replacing a older e-commerce website with a Prestashop website. So far, everything has been straightforward.  I am currently uploading the old data from the old database to Prestashop.  Using CSV Import, I have uploaded Categories, Subcategories, and Customer data without a problem.  But I keep getting error messages on the Address data.

 

So here is the big Question; does anyone know where I can get an explanation of the error messages that Pestashop provides when using the CVI Import module?  Does a document exist other then the online Understanding the Advanced Parameters document?

 

Note, I have simplified my Address data to one address record.

 

This is my input data:

 

ID;Alias*;Active (0/1);Customer Email;Customer ID:;Manufacturer;Supplier;Company;Last Name*;First Name*;Address 1 *;                Address 2;Postal code Zipcode *;City *;Country *;State;Other;Phone;Mobil Phone;VAT number;

 

1;Local;1;[email protected];;;;;SANTOMERO;Vincent;2145 Granada Lane;;91750;La Verne;USA;California;;9094809675;;;

 

This is the error messages:

 

5 errors

 

USA cannot be saved

Property Country->need_identification_number is empty

Local (ID: 1) cannot be saved

Property Address->id_country is empty

Alias (ID: null) cannot be saved

 

Note: "USA" exists in the Countries table.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

That is certainly because country address configuration are different in between your 2 versions.

 

Check settings under Localizations > Country > us country...

Typically it seems the Do you need a tax identification number? has different settings

 

PS: Just tested your file succeeded after:

Rename USA as United States

Added a customer ID
