David...
RSP->RSP transfer works exactly the same as a regular transfer.
Notification is sent to the current Administrative contact for
authorization, but also to the losing and gaining RSP gets an email ONLY if
they have this configured. Transfers TO an RSP happen when the Admin
approves (or when transfer times out), Transfers FROM an RSP happen as soon
as the request is made, and when the Admin accepts/rejects the transfer.
All these are "on/off" (default is off).
Losing RSP has no role, just gets notification (you'd like to know when a
customer leaves so you can stop bugging them, or find out what went wrong,
or even sue them for the billions they still owe you).
So:
Order comes in. Email goes to Admin (optionally losing RSP). Admin
approves/rejects.
Approves: Optional messages to gaining and losing RSPs
Rejects: Optional messages to gaining and losing RSPs
If the order times out, email goes to order maker, and optionally gaining
RSP.
Tada!
