Magento itself provides some kind of API Structure (like the API System inside Laravel Nova) for all kind of requests, we need to extend that endpoints to provide a functionality to just truncate the inventory table in DB
the reason for that: products and stocks coming from an external Software and will be placed inside magento, and because of that we ran into stock count problems between magento and external Software
there is still no official solution for that problem from Adobe so the workaround is to empty that specific table in DB everytime we import the new stocks
I am trying to bring products from mysql database to magento database. Could you please help which tables i have to insert the data?
This is not so easy. You should build a migration script and use magento API to do that. There’s a lot of relations between tables in database and without good understanding what happened there I really do not recommend your approach.
We just moved to a new Magento Template. We want to move our database, but when we import the DB to the new server it affects severely the design of the new template any advice on how to solve this?

Not really code wise but how to to edit or partially import the database?
The only idea so far is to edit tabe by table thru phpmyadmin, but is there any other more efficient way?
I have a client website that is running on Prestashop v1.4
Because it has been "maintained" by a previous developer who modified core files and generally made a big mess, the upgrade module no longer works properly. Given that the client is handing over the project to me, and wants a new theme implemented, I am moving straight to Prestashop 1.6 and using the Compass/Boostrap 3 default theme as a base.
Obviously, the important thing is that the clients data should be migrated. So my question is, is it possible to make a clean export from Prestashop 1.4 of only the actual sales and website access data, skipping anything like module configs etc, in order to reimport it all to Prestashop 1.6?
This way, my client can keep his order data, access data, products, payments etc, and I can build a new theme without having to fight with an old installation or theme that have hardcoded rubbish in it.
This module provides an automated method migrate products, customers, orders, categories, customers password and other data from Prestashop to Prestashop.

I think you can choose many migrate module to do your request.
If you only want to upgrade the current site to 1.6 (or the latest version). you can create a new site and transfer all of the data from the current site to the live site.
After you had set up the live site completely, you just re-transfer data from the new site to the live site. you can use a module many times with the site that has been granted a license.
If you want to transfer Product, categories and customer, you just use the Upgrade PrestaShop 1.6 to 1.7 free
If you want to transfer all of the data (products, customer, categories, order, cms, message, shipping,...) you should purchase the premium version module: 1 CLICK to migrate
I have my own database with product information. I want to upload these products straight to Magento's mySQL database. I tried investigating database structure and it's extremely confusing. So far what I've figured out is that they store product information across many different and therefore understanding every table and how it all comes together seems impossible. Is there any way to import products to magento without making direct sql queries to many different tables ? Or perhaps there's some other way to import products to magento programatically ?
Magmi is based on importing product, categories through direct SQL queries. You should have a look there. More here. Or you can google it to find more about Magmi Project
