In my current database each item has a Unique ID number (which i need to maintain as the physical items are labeled with the unique ID). Will this extension allow me to import the unique IDs and then have opencart continue where the highest unique ID number left off?

Or if this is not possible, is it possible to import the unique IDs into the SKU field?

Hi Davroid,

I'm assuming you are referring to another product and you want to move to OpenCart ?

The OpenCart "product" table has an autonumber that generates the product_id field. That's the only autogenerated field. If you have a unique ID, it can be used, but you'll need a small modification to get OpenCart to continue where the highest number left off.

What you can do is import your product, with your IDs, but you'll need to fiddle around to make sure the tables retain this referential integrity.

Hope this helps. If you get stuck, let me know.
