We found two major errors with the handling of duplicated product code.

FIRST

When Hikamarket multivendor settings -> main -> main options -> Avoid duplicate product code is SET TO NO



if I create a new product from scratch and use an already existing product_code a message shows warning of:

A product with the same code already exists

This seems to me wrong as the settings are reacting the opposite of its label indication "Avoid duplicate product code"



If I duplicate an already existing product and then I remove the _copy384756 suffix so the product_code gets back to match the original product_code then I get an horrible CRASH SCREEN as the one attached here:



The only thing that to my understanding is working is when the Avoid duplicate product code is set to YES as then the system by its own aggregates the product_id as a suffix to the product_code.

Anyhow I think (but this is only my interpretation of how it should work) the user should be warned of this product_code mutation automatically been made when the product is saved.

Hi,

The HikaShop check for the product code has been moved in a different function ; so that check is no more called when HikaMarket ask HikaShop to save the product.
So I will add a patch to perform the verification even if the "avoid product duplication" is set.

Now please note that :
* If you do not provide a product code, that code is generate automatically by HikaShop during the save ; no previous check can be done.
* If you do not activate the setting "avoid product duplication", HikaMarket won't perform any check on the product code and will pass the data to HikaShop to perform the save.
* The setting "avoid product duplication" is there to change the "product code" if there is already the same code in the database ; but it requires that the product code is provided and enter by the user.
* There is also a setting to put a prefix on vendor products.
