MITS Product Export Pro – Google Shopping & Product Feeds for modified eCommerce Shopsoftware

With MITS Product Export Pro, you can create and manage flexible product feeds directly from your modified eCommerce Shopsoftware. Product data can be provided as XML or CSV files for Google Shopping, price comparison portals, ERP systems, or custom data recipients.

Instead of needing a separate export for every provider, you create different export profiles. Each profile can use its own fields, filters, prices, images, and other settings. This allows diverse requirements to be mapped centrally within a single module.

Products with attributes and attribute combinations are taken into account just as simple products are. Matching product images can be assigned to individual variants and, if desired, even automatically switched on the product detail page according to the customer's attribute selection.

Flexible export profiles for different data recipients

Not every data recipient requires the same product information. Therefore, you can create a separate export profile for each purpose.

For example, one profile can contain exclusively the product data required for Google, while another profile is set up specifically for a price comparison portal or an ERP system. Field names, sequence, and content can be customized individually.

In this way, new export destinations can often be added directly via the module administration without having to install a separate export module for every recipient.

XML and CSV product feeds

Product data can optionally be output as XML or CSV. This makes MITS Product Export Pro suitable for classic shopping feeds as well as custom data exchange formats.

You determine which information appears in the export file via the respective export profile. Product title, description, item number, prices, EAN, manufacturer, availability, images, shipping information, and many other data points can be assembled to match the respective recipient.

Product feeds for idealo, billiger.de, guenstiger.de, and other price portals

Besides Google, product feeds can be created for well-known price comparison portals such as idealo, billiger.de, or guenstiger.de.

The requirements of the portals sometimes differ significantly. With a dedicated export profile, the required fields, designations, and product information can be configured to match the respective recipient. Prices, availability, shipping costs, manufacturer data, item numbers, EAN/GTIN, and product images can be selectively included.

If a specification changes or another price portal is added, it is not necessary to use a new export module. In many cases, modifying an existing profile or creating a new export profile is sufficient.

Product data for Google Shopping

MITS Product Export Pro supports providing product data for Google Shopping via Google Merchant Center.

Required details such as product ID, title, description, price, availability, brand, GTIN/EAN, MPN, product images, and Google product category can be assembled to suit the feed.

In addition, special data feeds for price and availability updates as well as local inventory information can be created.

Export attributes and attribute combinations

Many items in modified eCommerce Shopsoftware are offered via attributes and attribute combinations – for example, by color, size, material, style, or other product characteristics.

MITS Product Export Pro can include these attribute combinations in the product feed. Different variants can thus be exported with their respective prices, item numbers, EANs, images, and additional product information.

For example, a T-shirt may be offered in multiple colors and sizes. Instead of exporting only the main product, the resulting attribute combinations can be prepared with their respective data for the product feed.

Furthermore, more complex product combinations from the MITS Configurator can be included. This makes the module suitable for classic modified eCommerce Shopsoftware attributes as well as for extensive product configurations.

Automatically display matching product images upon attribute selection

A special highlight of MITS Product Export Pro is the automatic image switching in the frontend. Product images can be assigned specifically to certain attributes and attribute combinations.

For example, if a customer selects the color Red on the product detail page, the image gallery can automatically display photos of the red variant. For a different color or variant, the corresponding assigned product images are displayed.

This makes product selection much clearer for the customer: instead of just seeing a label in the dropdown, they immediately see the images of the selected variant.

Particularly practical is the shared maintenance. The image assignments configured for attributes and attribute combinations can be used for both the product feed and the frontend display. A separate second management of images is therefore not required.

• Automatic image switching upon attribute selection
• Images matching colors, sizes, variants, and other attribute values
• Support for attribute combinations with multiple selection features
• Custom image order via drag & drop
• Shared image mapping for export and product detail page

The frontend image switching supports tpl_modified_responsive, Bootstrap5 and Bootstrap5a, tpl_modified_nova, as well as MITS Responsive Modern. A general detection feature is also available for simple product galleries.

Target or exclude products selectively

Not every item should automatically appear in every product feed. With integrated filtering options, you specify exactly which products an export profile should include.

For example, specific categories or manufacturers can be selected for a feed, individual product groups excluded, or distinct product ranges prepared for different data recipients.

Shop-specific selection rules can be added via provided extension points without having to modify the module core code.

Define custom export fields

In addition to existing product data, extra custom export fields can be created. This allows you to map requirements for which no standard field exists in modified eCommerce Shopsoftware.

If a recipient requires a custom tag, fixed additional text, an alternative field name, or specially combined information, such data can be seamlessly integrated into the respective export profile.

Control product images individually for export

Beside automatic frontend image switching, product images can be customized individually for each export profile.

Images can be sorted, selectively excluded from export, or assigned to specific attribute combinations or product configurations. Thus, a red variant can be transmitted to a price portal with different product images than a blue variant.

Prices tailored to the export destination

Different data recipients may require different pricing information. MITS Product Export Pro respects the pricing logic of modified eCommerce Shopsoftware and can work with customer group prices, among other features.

As a result, an export profile can be created with a different price basis than another profile used for a different purpose.

Item number, EAN, GTIN, and manufacturer data

Key identifiers for product feeds such as item number, GTIN/EAN, manufacturer, and MPN can be included in the export and output appropriately for the respective recipient.

Especially for Google Shopping and price portals, distinct product identifiers facilitate the correct matching of offered products.

Shipping and additional product details

In addition to classic product data, further information such as shipping specifications, packaging units, availability, and extra product attributes can be included in a feed.

This allows extensive guidelines of various platforms to be covered within a single export profile.

Update product feeds automatically

Product data changes regularly. Prices, stock levels, or availabilities should therefore not permanently stem from a one-time generated file.

Exports can be initiated manually or executed automatically via Scheduled Tasks in modified eCommerce Shopsoftware or through an external URL call.

In this way, price comparison portals and other recipients are supplied with up-to-date product data regularly without needing to trigger every export manually.

Process extensive exports reliably

Even large product catalogs do not necessarily have to be fully processed in a single execution. The module can process extensive exports incrementally and resume step by step.

This reduces shop server load and is particularly helpful for large product catalogs or a high number of attributes and attribute combinations.

Manage multiple feeds centrally

A shop can use multiple export profiles in parallel. For instance, a feed for Google Shopping, an export for idealo, another feed for billiger.de, and a custom CSV export can be maintained and updated independently of each other.

Changes to one profile do not affect other exports. Management remains clear and organized even with multiple data recipients.

Extendable for custom requirements

Every modified eCommerce Shopsoftware installation can be customized with additional modules, custom fields, or individual business logic. Therefore, MITS Product Export Pro offers defined extension hooks to integrate custom data or filtering logic into the export.

Custom modifications do not need to be written directly into the module core. This simplifies future updates and ensures a clean separation between module code and shop customizations.

Seven integrated languages

The module administration is available inGerman, English, Dutch, French, Italian, Spanish, and Polish.
