Based on the request, Quant sets the approved volume for all products sent within the order. For products that were part of the order but we did not receive information about the approved volume, Quant sets the approved volume to 0. At the same time, it changes the order state to Ordered. Even after changing the order state, it is possible to add an approved volume of another product to the order via the REST API Orders Import.
