texte = I get a database export from a customer, where are 3 prices for each product:db_prod_id db_price_1 db_price_2 db_price_3 1 10 20 30 2 40 50 60 3 70 80 90No [price] would go to the cart, because there is no such field. I think about two options:1 - I could write a [price] field to a seperate database before each [addlineitem] and [setlineitem], and put this field into the cart: No need to change the original database, but much more database access during work.2 - I could rearrange the database like this: db_prod_id db_group price 1 1 10 1 2 20 1 3 30 2 1 40 2 2 50 2 3 60 3 1 70 3 2 80 3 3 90 This involves a change of the original database but less db access and should be faster, even on Linux. Ok, I loose the ability to use [lookup], but since I can do a case sensitive search for the product ID it shouldn't be slower.The second option is better, right?
