Quick answer
WPML Oxygen Connector is not designed to translate WooCommerce product-specific data.
Products, prices, attributes, categories, variations, stock, and WooCommerce’s own product content should be managed with the appropriate WooCommerce and WPML tools, such as WooCommerce Multilingual when applicable.
What it can help translate
The connector can help with visual texts that you have configured inside Oxygen: custom titles, buttons, section texts, visual blocks, or labels created inside the builder.
In other words, it works on Oxygen content, not on WooCommerce’s functional database.
Examples
Visible text on a product landing page created with Oxygen: may be translatable.
Custom button inside Oxygen: may be translatable.
Official WooCommerce product description: should be managed with WooCommerce/WPML.
Price, SKU, or stock: should not be translated with this plugin.
Recommendation
Use each tool for its own function: WooCommerce/WCML for store data, WPML Oxygen Connector for visual content created inside Oxygen.
