Follow the usual catalogue first import workflow:
- Proceed to the Lengow mapping.
If some of your products are mapped to several categories in Akeneo, this will create several "Category" fields in your Lengow catalogue.
If you don't have a price field in Akeneo, map any other field at this step - but remember to change the mapping once you import prices from another source.
- Check Import report
The URLs of your products' images must be public. If the data retrieved via Akeneo are not usable, you can transform them by adding the TwicPics app to your Akeneo.
The retrieved dimensions are transformed into the SI (International System of Units) units of measurement. For example, millimeters are converted into meters in Lengow.
The management of declination is currently not doable.
Import frequency
In the "Catalogues" tab, you may go to the sub-tab "Settings", then "Update frequency & alerts", and set the alerts you need or define a custom update frequency.
You have just imported your Akeneo product data into your Lengow catalogue!
How to use it?
Once your Akeneo catalogue is imported, it can be used just like any other type of catalogue imported into Lengow.
