Hi Emad, I start with the second question: For example: You may have produced the inventory yourself and just added it with the form. You can also create an Inventory Item via the manufacturing app without the use of purchase orders.
First: I had cases where the productId of a product has changed (new company productId-pattern ...). Just created the new product and update the inventoryItem to the new product and here we go. I have implemented use-case where the inventory becomes another product before it expires - different logic applies. Therefore I replace the productId with the new one. The purchase order won't change when you update the InventoryItem entity. You will still see the InventoryItem applied to the purchase order and if you dig deeper you will see that the product relation has changed. The productId + product name and more is stored in the OrderItem entity. It will stay unchanged. + you can easily update the field to "readOnly" in the source code.

I'm not getting the use case behind this, Won't it affect the consistency of the Purchase Order related to inventory item? Also - from business perspective - I can understand why I would need to edit the inventory item but when I'll need to create it from scratch without a purchase order? Regards, Emad
