EZ-web

 

There are 3 artlink changes in this release:

 

1

The headings in the artlink.txt import and export contained Dutch column headings.

From this release, the English column headings as well as Dutch will be allowed in the artlink.txt import.

 

For the artlink.txt export, the English column headings will be used immediately. 

This artlink.txt can be exported with this button (under ArtLink, Show details button from the Artlink delivery, choose Show list on one of the lines):

 

 

 

2

In some cases there was no clear error message if the allowed file size of (around) 750 MB was exceeded when importing an artlink. As of this release, this is visible, both for a manual and scheduled import. Also if a planned artlink was not read in due to a Time out, this is now visible. Read all about it here.

 

3

Expired articles (except Wholesaler articles) that have not (anymore) appeared in any Artlink for 6 weeks were automatically deleted, even if they still appeared in a price list. This is changed because an expired article that still appears in a price list may be wrongly on this status, so should not be deleted. 

 

Expired articles were included in the dashboard. This could have an undesirable effect on the data evaluation. As of this release, this is no longer the case.

There is one exception: Available defined standardised features. This figure remains the only one based on all articles from EZ catalogue including expired articles.

 

Searching with a search term containing a “/” or “+” currently did not always return the desired result. This is resolved in this release.

 

Previously, it was less visible which language flag was selected. It is improved in this release.

 

During nightly processing it is determined whether data has changed in EZ-catalog and needs to be transferred to EZ-web.

1. This synchronization occasionally runs into an error that sometimes causes the synchronization process not to run completely. This is improved in this release reducing the chance of this happening.

2. An adjustment is made which speed up the synchronization.

 

Before the webshop.xml 3.1 is imported into the own ERP system, this XSD offers the possibility to check the file to be imported.

This XSD contained a too strict GLN check. This check has been loosened: also shorter GLNs are now accepted.

 

Features can be moved to the specification field. In advanced export in the webshop.txt and webshop.xlsx output formats, the units were missing. This is solved in this release.

 

Publications available on EZ-web contain links with which the corresponding article detail page can be opened in EZ-web.

EZ-base offers an additional service with which these publications can also be embedded on the own website. Visitors clicking on a link in the publication will then be redirected to a URL chosen by the relation, e.g. the page on the relation's website containing the article in question. The website visitor does not need to have an account with EZ-base for this.

It could happen that the forwarding service did not add the GTIN of an article to the URL, which sometimes resulted in the article not being found on the website of the relation. This has been solved in this release.
