ITscope Products (Staging)
The list shows the product master read from product.csv — the connector's staging area, from which the distributor offers take manufacturer, manufacturer part number, EAN and descriptions.

Why This List Matters
Every offer from supplierItem.csv refers to an entry in this list through the PUID (ITscope's product number). If an offer finds no match there, it arrives without manufacturer, manufacturer part number and EAN — then no manufacturer can be registered and no Business Central item can be found. The result message counts such offers as Offers without product master.
If the list is empty, or the PUIDs do not match the offers, it is the first place to look after a run that wrote nothing.
Columns
| Column | Meaning |
|---|---|
| PUID | ITscope's unique product number; the offers refer to it |
| Manufacturer Name | The manufacturer catalog is built from this value — if it is empty, no manufacturer can be registered |
| Manufacturer Part No. | Used (together with the manufacturer) to find the Business Central item |
| GTIN | The EAN/GTIN; the item is searched by it first |
| Product Name | The name of the product |
| Product Group, Product Type | The ITscope classification; through the Item Category Mapping they decide category and template of newly created items. Hidden by default — show them with Personalize |
| Image Count | How many product images ITscope delivers for this product |
| Current | The product was in the last full import |
| Timestamp Import | When ITscope last delivered the product |
What Else the Product Master Contains
Besides the columns of the list, the connector provides the offers with further data from product.csv:
| Area | Content |
|---|---|
| Description | Long description, marketing text, key selling points, package contents, product features, specifications, warranty |
| Logistics | Gross and net weight (kg), length, width, height and length and girth (cm), tariff number, VAT percent |
| Classification | Product subtype, product line, model, color, up to five attributes |
| Media and links | Up to five images, datasheet (PDF and HTML), catalog URL, energy label and energy efficiency class |
| Price | The recommended retail price (net) — it shows up in the supplier data as the list price |
Products the last full export no longer contained lose the Current flag; Rehost Product Images no longer processes them.
