Improvements

Variation Attributes/Options are shown for Products in Listings Log

The Listings Logs for Multi-Variation Products has been improved in M2E Pro version 6.3.7.

Previously, the Listings Logs for Multi-Variation Products displayed information only with reference to Parent Product, even if the changes concerned Item's Options/ Variations. In the current version, it has become possible to track changes of each individual Option/ Variation in the Listings Logs. Thus, once there is a change in the Product Attribute for any of the Item's Options/ Variations, the Log will inform you about the change referring to the particular Child Product.

For example, there is a Multi-Variation Product with Options Material Wood, Glass and Plastic. If the Price for the Material Glass Option changes, the Log will inform you not only about the change of Product Price, but also about the change of Product Custom Attribute with reference to the Variation Material Glass.

SKU column is added to the Variations Grid of Manage Variations pop-up

The grid in the Manage Variations pop-up window for Multi-Variation Products has been modified in the new M2E Pro version.

A new column which displays SKU values for each of the Product Variations has been added. Thus, now you can filter or search for certain Item Variations based on their SKU values.

SKU values are automatically displayed in the grid, if the values are provided in the corresponding Child Products.

Info
Note: Product Variation SKU will not be automatically displayed for the Products which were added before the upgrade. M2E Pro will save the Child Product SKU values and automatically display them in this grid only for those Multi-Variation Products which were added to a Listing after the upgrade.

Ability to get Rakuten Product Title for 3rd Party Listings (technical issue)

For the Rakuten.com technical reasons, it is not possible to receive Product Titles for the 3rd Party Listings. Thus, after the 3rd Party Products are imported, their actual Product Titles will be replaced with the following text 'Unknown [Product Title cannot be received]'.

As a consequence of such changes, the 3rd Party Products can not be automatically Mapped to a Magento Product based on Product Title. This setting has been removed in the new M2E Pro version.

Ability to List Products automatically using Seller SKU (technical issue)

Due to Rakuten.com technical settings, Products can not be automatically Listed based on the provided Seller SKU values. This option of Automatic Listing using Seller SKU has been removed.

Info
Note: Some of the fields may not be available for selection. The availability depends on the Option for which the Attribute is being created.
Info
Note: This Option does not imply automatic Product Attribute Value set up. After the Attribute becomes available in Magento, you should Manually provide the Value for the Product.
Auto Add Rules can ignore Magento Products with "Not visible individually" visibility

The current M2E Pro version has introduced a new Auto Add/Remove option. Now you can specify if the Magento Products with visibility 'Not visible Individually' has to be added to the Listing automatically.

If the option is set to Yes, then new Magento Products with visibility 'Not visible Individually' will be added to the Listing based on the Auto Add/Remove Rule conditions. Otherwise, if set to No, only Variation (i.e. Parent) Magento Products will be added to the Listing automatically, excluding Child Products.
