Well, in short (in case you have no time for the details below), I'd like to know this: How does
OpenTaps handle revisions to orders (customer changes shipping to UPS instead of FEDEX or we
change quantity of item to be bought from, say, 5 each to 10 each?

Adding items to an already approved Purchase Order seems to leave the
newly added items at status of "created", with no way of changing the
status to "approved".
Does the fact that the status is not at "approved" affect the shipping?
I tried to receive the shipment, and I got only the approved items, not
the non-approved (newly added) ones. How are shipments tied to POs?
Also, is it actually possible to receive the same PO more than once?
Why? Receiving the PO more than once didn't give me more inventory,
though, so it's not exactly broken here.
Why do I get multiple items for the same inventory (say I get 2 items
for Product ID Cap)? I get this by doing the above PO, where 1 Cap was
in the original PO, and the 2nd Cap was added later, all before the
inventory receive.
In general, the entire SO/PO and shipping and inventory receive seems
very buggy, or at least missing several necessary constraints. Any
documentation for these areas? Or are they "work in progress"?
Compared to the Product Configurator (still buggy since it doesn't
refresh storefront in timely fashion) and the Variants mechanism (looks
perfect), the above areas seem very unfinished.
By the way, some time back, I had also somewhat documented the inventory
area with respect to the order fulfillment and stock inadequacy aspects.
There are certainly at least (or exactly?) 2 items for each inventory: 1
for existing stock, another for backorders. Is this better documented
anywhere?
