A batch is a process in Malcom consisting of a collection of interdependent jobs that synchronize your data from Akeneo to Shopify. The Batches Grid displays all your jobs as set by your selected filters in the Batch Menu.
- Batch ID: The unique identifier that regroups a list of jobs.
- Created At: The time of creation/submission when a new batch is created in Malcom to initiate a synchronization process between Akeneo and Shopify.
- Started Execution At: The Time at which Malcom starts to process the batch.
- Completed Execution At: The Time at which Malcom finishes the processing of the batch.
Note: Malcom operates in Eastern Standard Time (EST).
-
Status:
- In Progress: List of batches being processed currently by Malcom.
- To Be Synced: List of batches that have been queued for processing.
- Completed: List of batches that have been successfully completed and at least one product was imported.
Note: If you want a complete list of jobs, including empty (no products imported) ones, select the checkbox “Include Empty Batch Completed.”
-
Completed with Error: List of batches that have completed the synchronization process but failed one or more of the following “Job Type”:
- Create a Shopify Media Record
- Delete Shopify Metafields
- Translate Shopify Product Or Collection Title And Description
- Translate Shopify Metafields
- Translate Shopify Product Option Names
- Translate Shopify Variant Option Values
Note: Malcom will continue the synchronization process since these are non-critical “Job Types” and will not affect batch completion. We highly recommend that you check the payload details for each failed “Job Type” and try to resolve the root cause in your Shopify Store.
- Stopped Due To Error: List of batches that were aborted by Malcom due to configuration or data-related errors in the Akeneo, Malcom, or Shopify Store.
Manually Stopped: List of batches that were aborted by the user.
