Making product price updates via massaction leeds to a problem: If configurable product was selected, the price for it will be updated - it is wrong behaviour since in Magento 2 there is no way to update price in configurable product (unlike in 1.9).
Then it leeds to generating price indexes for configurable product with prices from itself and not from it’s associated products.
We’ve managed to fix that issue by blocking price updates from massacion and implementing 4 additional fields inside configurable product (price, special price, special from, special to) which update all associated products.
