WooCommerce import is controlled through regular Eofferix profile actions. The user starts test export, full run, stop, resume and rollback from the service interface, without manual WordPress database edits.
Where to start import
Open the WooCommerce profile and go to Transformation. This screen contains the full run, test export, current task, warnings and the previous run report.
How to choose a mode
| Goal | Mode | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Check settings on a few products. | Test export. | Products, variations, categories, prices, stock and images in WooCommerce. |
| Import the complete catalog after checking. | Full run. | That test export did not create duplicates and fields went to the correct level. |
| Repeat import without source changes. | Regular repeat run. | Most objects are reported as skipped unchanged. |
| Remove products that disappeared at the supplier. | Synchronization with missing object cleanup. | Current profile scope and deletion safety limit. |
| Return changes from the last exchange. | Rollback, if a rollback point is available. | That rollback belongs to the current profile and source. |
Test export
A test export sends a small set of data. It is used to check connection, snapshot roles, fields, categories, variations, attributes and images. By default it does not clean the site catalog.
Full run
A full run sends every object that passes the template rules. If an object already exists, Eofferix updates it by selected identification fields. Large catalogs are sent in batches.
Repeat run without changes
On repeat runs Eofferix and the plugin compare the final data that would be written to WooCommerce. If product, variation or category data did not change, the write is skipped and shown separately in the report.
Synchronization with missing object cleanup
When cleanup is enabled, Eofferix deletes or disables only objects previously linked to the same profile and source. Manual store products and data from other sources are outside this scope. Safety limits stop suspicious mass deletion and explain what limit was triggered.
Catalog overwrite
Overwrite does not mean "delete everything and create again". If a reliable match is found, the object is updated in place. Deletion is applied only to scoped objects missing from the new run.
Pause, resume and rollback
During an active import the Current task block shows progress and a stop button. After stop, the interface switches to a stopping state and the service waits for the nearest confirmed point. A later run resumes from that point.
Rollback returns changes of the current exchange. It belongs to the current profile and source, not to the whole WordPress site.
Report after import
After completion the previous run block shows status, time, final cost and result link. Billing uses actual actions, not the preliminary estimate.
