Import products by the manufacturer's name instead of their ID

Hello, I want to know if there is a way to import the products by the manufacturer's name without indicate the vendor ID, but the name of that manufacturer.

Now I have a list of 4200 products and there are 177 manufacturers. Until now, manufacturers have been importing with the "product_manufacturer_id" replacing the manufacturer's name for its internal ID Hikashop, and so in each of the 4200 products that I have in the CSV file.

For example, replacing "Logitech" with "49", and "Sony" with "32" in the field "product_manufacturer_id" in each of the 4200 products in CSV file.

Is there any way of not having to do this and you can import the manufacturers name directly in HikaShop instead of their ID?

Thank you very much for your help.

There is nothing to do actually.
You can directly have the manufacturer's name in the product_manufacturer_id column of your CSV and the import system will convert it during the import automatically.
