Enable out of stock order when importing products

[sid16]

Is there a way to enable orders for out of stock products when importing the CSV file ? I have enabled ordering of out stock in preferences, but I have to manually enable this option for each product in the quantity tab. Is there a way to set it automatically for all new products ?

There should be a default behavior that applies to all products.. you're saying each single product has it set to "deny orders" instead of "default"?

I think this is a bug.

 

At least in version 1.6.0.11, the CSV import sets the out-of-stock-behavior to "Deny orders", whereas on 1.5.3.1 that I started out with, the CSV import sets this option to "Default (as set in Preferences).

 

I don't know whether this has been fixed or not in later versions (1.6.0.12+). Possibly not...

Odd, given the code, it's supposed to assign the current value out of the csv.

 

Try modifying this, in AdminImportController
 

			if ($product->getType() == Product::PTYPE_VIRTUAL)
				StockAvailable::setProductOutOfStock((int)$product->id, 1);
			else
				StockAvailable::setProductOutOfStock((int)$product->id, (int)$product->out_of_stock);

And setting it to

 

			if ($product->getType() == Product::PTYPE_VIRTUAL)
				StockAvailable::setProductOutOfStock((int)$product->id, 1);
			else
				StockAvailable::setProductOutOfStock((int)$product->id, 1);

Not sure it will work though
