Using two "Product Types"
(Type 1) Product General and (Type 4) Document Product.
When I export with ep4 the v_products_type column is correct.
( I get 1 & 4 )
When I import all type 4 get changed to type 1.
Searched all morning but could not find a solution.
Is there a setting that over rides product types when importing with EP4?

In Admin "editing " category mode (Type) doesn't have any effect on the Product Type setting of products already entered.
When entering new products in Admin the Type setting works correctly

Thank You in Advance for your time.

While there are few "restrictions" really placed on the software, one that is present is by default allowing the product type to be changed on update. That said, because it is a product field, there is the ability to incorporate it as a user defined field in the configuration area. In this way, updates will attempt to modify the products_type field so long as products_type is identified there.
