big problem of Easy populate: can not search at Admin-categories

I found a big problem of Easy populate.

Any prouduct imported through Easy populate can not be searched at Admin-categories.

for example
Imported product '345344S cloth'.

Go to catalog-categories--search.
return nothing by search the key words '345344S'.

How to fix this problem. thanks in advance

Most likely you are missing the master_categories_id and products_price_sorter as most importers do not address these fields ...

If you do not use Linked Products this can be fixed in the Tools ... Store Manager ...

Reset ALL Products Master Categories ID
to be used for Linked Products and Pricing: Reset

then run the:

Update ALL Products Price Sorter
to be able to sort by displayed prices: Update

Thank you very much for help!

could you please tell me exactly what I shoud do at the admin-tool-store-Manager? all 'Reset' buttons there , I am scary that any mistake would reset all data.

and what to do if I have used Linked Products ? One of my stores use Linked product.

Thank you so much!
