We work in Assyst on the creation of new objects using a prefix and an index:

Is it possible to use this also via the ETM? When I want to import an object through the ETM, the ShortCode is a mandatory field. Unfortunately, I haven’t found a way to read the last count value from the index in order to provide the ShortCode directly from the ETM.

Thank you for your help!

The index is applied automatically when you create an Item with product class that uses an index.

So, you just need to use an Item Data Mapper that identifies an appropriate product (and therefore a product class), and fills in any other mandatory fields.

That helps. Thanks. I forgot to define the product a second time.
