[Question] Support for product types

[azeemism]

Just want some clarification on support for products configured in magento. Presently it does not look like the following are fully supported, Support of Bundles with a split in the sale order Support of Bundles with a manufacturing order Support of Configurables Support of Grouped products Support of Virtual products Support of Downloadable products http://odoo-magento-connector.com/project/roadmap.html

(For a non-manufacturer) If Bundles and Grouped products with associated Simple products are sold in magento, I assume both types of "products are imported as simple products and not as variant products (#107)" ?

If a Virtual products like service subscriptions is sold in magento, would the connector completely ignore it?

If a Downloadable products like pdf magazines is sold in magento, would the connector completely ignore it?

Thanks

It really depends on what you expect when you say "fully supported". Today, you can import simple products and configurable products from Magento to Odoo (though configurable products will be imported as separate simple products in Odoo).

In the pull requests https://github.com/OCA/connector-magento/pulls you may find a pull request for importing the bundles in 7.0 for which I don't know the current development state.

For grouped virtual and downloadable products, my assumption is that they won't work. If an unsupported product is imported, the job trying to import the sales order will be in an failed state.

I add virtual and downloadable products as service in https://github.com/OCA/connector-magento/pull/214

For version 9, I would say we could add virtual and downloadable products to 'service' and 'digital' product type

@atchuthan Aren't anymore "Virtual" and "Downloadable" the terms used by Magento? We should keep the same terms.

@guewen Sorry, I meant the mapping for type https://github.com/OCA/connector-magento/pull/214/files#diff-e6aa57638574fdfdf0ef02e82265e3e7R450

Virtual and Downloadable should work like a Service it seems to me.

One way to jump start is to make it a "simple product" then sync, then convert its type Magento. Easy enough to do on a database level anyway.

Simple Products from Configurable works well though "logically" to me, this should follow more of a "Odoo Product" then "Variants". I really don't understand the "variant of a variant approach" that the Connector takes Odoo through but not needing to fix that right now either.
