00:00:00.250 --> 00:00:05.892
Welcome to the AgenticEcom Import Category Replace Admin guide. We'll walk through the main

00:00:05.985 --> 00:00:11.442
setup screens and the checks to make before using the module. This guide assumes the extension is

00:00:11.512 --> 00:00:12.928
already installed.

00:00:13.978 --> 00:00:19.249
Start in Magento Admin and open Stores, Configuration. Choose Product

00:00:19.307 --> 00:00:24.740
Import Settings. Check the Scope selector before editing. Use the appropriate website or

00:00:24.810 --> 00:00:30.453
store view where the setting supports it. The screen values here are a demonstration; enter

00:00:30.499 --> 00:00:33.901
the settings and service details that belong to your own store.

00:00:34.951 --> 00:00:40.303
Open Category Handling in Product Import Settings. Review the category replacement

00:00:40.361 --> 00:00:46.039
option before using Magento's product import. The purpose is to let the categories listed in a

00:00:46.120 --> 00:00:50.973
row become authoritative, rather than leaving old category assignments attached to the

00:00:51.008 --> 00:00:51.855
product.

00:00:52.905 --> 00:00:58.222
Open System, Data Transfer, Import and choose Products as the entity type.

00:00:58.745 --> 00:01:04.434
Prepare the file using Magento's expected product CSV columns. Keep a backup of the

00:01:04.480 --> 00:01:09.159
catalogue and export the affected products first, including their current category

00:01:09.217 --> 00:01:10.181
assignments.

00:01:11.231 --> 00:01:16.397
Start with one or two disposable staging products. Check the SKU and the full intended

00:01:16.444 --> 00:01:22.040
category path values carefully. Replacing categories can remove assignments that are absent from

00:01:22.086 --> 00:01:27.427
the row, so confirm your final category list rather than treating the import as an append

00:01:27.485 --> 00:01:28.507
operation.

00:01:29.557 --> 00:01:34.956
After validating and importing the small file, reopen each affected product and inspect its

00:01:35.002 --> 00:01:40.273
category assignments. Check category listings and URL behaviour in the intended store

00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:45.985
view. Expand to a larger selection only after the new list and the removal of unwanted

00:01:46.032 --> 00:01:48.272
old assignments are both confirmed.

00:01:49.322 --> 00:01:54.581
When your required settings are complete, use the screen's Save control and wait for Magento's

00:01:54.628 --> 00:01:59.841
confirmation. Then reopen the record or configuration and check the saved values at the

00:01:59.899 --> 00:02:05.378
intended scope. If the storefront still shows earlier settings, refresh the relevant

00:02:05.425 --> 00:02:09.895
caches. Test your own configuration before using it with customers.

00:02:10.945 --> 00:02:16.100
That's the Admin setup walkthrough for Import Category Replace. Check permissions and

00:02:16.158 --> 00:02:21.464
scope, review the module-specific settings, then save and verify a small staging

00:02:21.522 --> 00:02:26.862
example. Use the written guide at user guides dot AgenticEcom dot net for

00:02:26.932 --> 00:02:31.831
installation details, complete field references and any separate storefront integration

00:02:31.901 --> 00:02:32.679
steps.
