Prestashop: Suppliers import missing [short_description] field issues

[letwang]

Advanced Parameters -> Import

When you select Suppliers for import, the right side prompts for available fields:

ID
Active (0/1)
Name
Description
Short description
Meta title
Meta keywords
Meta description
Image URL
ID / Name of group shop
However, ps_supplier_lang does not contain short_description field.

Request the PrestaShop official to add the short_description field.

Hi @letwang,

Thanks for your feedback.
I manage to reproduce the issue with PS1.7.6.7 and 1.7.7.x branch.
In the Import page, the Short description field exists


In the BO > Suppliers page, the Short description field does'nt exist

Ping @PrestaShop/prestashop-product-team, there are two solutions to fix the issue

1. Remove the Short description field from the import page
2. Add the Short description field to the supplier

What do you think?

Thanks!

Hi there! You're absolutely right, there is no 'Short Description' section for the suppliers while there is one for the brands. Hard to tell if it has been removed on purpose or if it is missing... Most of the time, brands and suppliers share the same behavior but we can guess that the needs regarding their display might not be exactly the same.

@letwang, is it a feature you would need for your suppliers? I can understand the content focus on the brands but I don't know for the suppliers.

[letwang]

The current behavior is inconsistent. There are places to import, but the database does not. Can they be consistent?

[LouiseBonnard]

Indeed the current behavior is inconsistent but before making any decision to make it consistent (either adding it to the supplier page or deleting it from the import), I wanted to ask you about the usage. Do you need the short description to handle your suppliers or not?

[letwang]

My problem has been solved. I added a field, and at the same time as a bug, I gave the official feedback.

[LouiseBonnard]

Alright so I would recommend to add a short description field to the supplier page.

[letwang]

good job!
