    Default Brand Rule Creation

    I am trying to set My Manufacture Name as the Brand name for Google unique product identifiers. I can get as far as
    If Manufacture Name matches ?* (Wild Card) then set Brand to = ????
    What do I use to set the Manufacture Name of each product to equal that of the brand name? I am clueless.

    Default Manufacturer to Brand

    DotFeed will extract and feed this information for you. It is, of course, your role to make sure that your Manufacturer field in AspDotNetStorefront is populated, or that you use the DotFeed rules to provide the missing information.

    If this wasn't already populated you'd want to use the 'Current' token.

    {current} is used to mean “all of the data that currently exists in this OUTGOING field”. Typically, this token is used when the outgoing field is already prepared but needs data appending to it.

    So the rule would look like this
    If manufacturer name matches ?* (Wild Card) then set Brand to {current}

    So The Brand name was sposed to be populated automatically and sent to Google? Cause it wasn't, and we got suspended . Our manufacture field is filled out on all our products (it is required for creating and posting a live product in Storefront 9.2 MS) and with this rule I can now see the Manufacture name show up in the Band category under 'pre-view results'.

    It is suppose to be auto-populated, yes.

    It's my first time to ever heard this issue so if you can also put a ticket in dotfeed support, I'd be happy to investigate what's going on.
