<p>This module extends the functionality of purchases adding a new state
<em>Approved</em> in purchase orders before the <em>Purchase Order</em> state. Additionally
add the possibility to set back to draft a purchase order in all the states
previous to <em>Purchase Order</em>. From a user point of view, this change introduces
a two-step validation process of the purchase order.</p>
<p>In this new <em>Approved</em> state:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li>You cannot modify the purchase order.</li>
<li>However, you can go back to draft and pass through the workflow again.</li>
<li>The incoming shipments are not created. You can create them by clicking the
<em>Convert to Purchase Order</em> button, also moving to state <em>Purchase Order</em>.</li>
</ul>
<p>The new state diagram is depicted below:</p>
