Entering Product Issues

[EricNoah]

re: AEG Magic -- you're saying that one won't go in at all, right?

At first the codes were exactly 4 characters long. I requested more characters be available. I would heartily recommend at least 4 characters for the abbreviation codes.

From what you're copying and pasting here it's hard to tell but it looks like you have some fields not filled in. Author, product URL. Double check that.

re Auran -- same deal -- try using a longer code, make sure every field is filled in.

Seems to have done the job. Sheesh.

Now for another question. When the book comes out in the stores, I have to change the release date to note that its out so that it can be reviewed right?

 

[EricNoah]

Yep -- change the date to one day before today, and change Available from No to Yes

 

[JoeGKushner]

Well, that should do it then. I'll hopefully have no more issues on this level.

 

[Krug]

I would LOVE it if once we finished editing a product, we could select the same product to edit again, rather than going through the whole selection process AGAIN.

 

[Morrus]

Just use your "back" button to return to the edit page.

 

[JoeGKushner]

I think Krug means when we are done with the product. Say the product isn't out yet and then it comes out, different page count, price tag, etc...

 

[Morrus]

That hasn't exactly made it any clearer. Could someone explain the problem for me in childishly easy steps? I feel like I'm trying to unravel a riddle here!

 

[EricNoah]

I think Morrus was right about what Krug was asking.

If you need to quick change two fields, you can Edit, pick a field, enter new data, hit submit. Then after it goes through, hit your back button, pick a different field, enter new data for that field, hit submit again. Go back two pages (and maybe hit reload) and you should see your two pieces of info changed.

Sounds like Krug after the first edit was going back to the publisher list, the product list, the product, hitting edit again. And that would indeed be a pain.

 

[JoeGKushner]

Oh yeah, that would be a pain. I just don't like entering in product data and then having to go back a month or so latter and change it.

I just changed a lot of the Avalance stuff that was missing prices, page counts, and other bits.
