Generating Datafeed of Products & Prices incorrect

Is there a way to generate a datafeed for a webdirectory, i.e. downloading all the product information diretly out of Hikashop (name, url, weight, price, etc?

On another point... if I enter a gross price (including VAT), Hika Shop generates the Net price out of it. for display it seems to generate the gross price again out of the net price. If the calculated net price is not an exact 2-digit number, the generated gross price is sometimes different by 1 cent from what I have entered as the gross price on the product details page. So some of my products cost 36.01€ instead of 36€ (including VAT). This is a bit a nuisance.

There is no product feed yet in hikashop.

Concerning your second point, I invite you to read that thread:

Hi,

You don't need to have a feed on your products for google to list them in its searches.
You can see www.google.com/search?sourceid=chrome&ie...&q=hikashop+business
HikaShop business is listed in google but we don't have a feed for the products on our website.

Google doesn't need any data feed to index your website. It will just download your website pages and follow the links, like a real user would do.
RSS/atom feeds are used by humans to keep track of news and new items on a lot of different websites.

Ok... but if we want products to show as images in Shopping Results on Google Searches do we not need to have the products configured with a data feed in Google Merchant Center?

Ah ok ! You're talking about google shopping center ! That's why I didn't understand what you were talking about.
You can already create manually a feed with Excel and import it into google's merchant center as a tab-delimited text file by following google's documentation:
www.google.com/support/merchants/bin/answer.py?answer=160567
A RSS feed of your products would indeed allow to have the products listed automatically on google shopping center.
We'll put that on the todo list.
