I don't think this exists but then I am a newbie 
Basically I have about 100+ items in a category, each with two variations (small & large). There is a lot of consistency between products though.
At the moment every product had to be manually created, every version manually added and they will all require manual maintenance.
I would love to be able to define a 'price template' or 'product template' as such.
To add a new product I just have to add a few things which differentiate the product from the generic, otherwise it picks up on standard prices, versions and quantity discounts.
eg: The template has say the leading part of the SKU such as SKU_CAR_
The product SKU section may be "RED"
These appends to each other to create a SKU of SKU_CAR_RED
I could update the price on the product template and it updates all products in that template.
I can apply a promotion to a product template.
Cheers

There is a feature within versions to "clone" an existing version... this helps where you have many versions of a product that vary little. But there is no facility to clone a product, along with the versions within it.
You might find that using the data tool to import from a spreadsheet might help... You can setup your first product and versions in the spreadsheet, then copy/paste those, amending as required each time, then at the end use the data tool to import into Kartris.

Hi Mart,
I've used the clone a bit, and it has helped to some extent but its not really a solution to my dilemma in this case.
The import from a spreadsheet might have to do for me. Is there a way to export current products to a CSV file, edit/change etc and import back in? That would be a great start. I am only seeing the custom export section, where is the import part?
I am thinking if I can create a Access database connection to the kartris database I could more easy work with the data, but I don't know the design and relationship of the tables. Is there any documentation on this?
Thanks heaps
Guy
