Or business decides all specs and design decisions that were made last quarter were actually garbage and yes we do want to be able to manually override every step of the carefully designed state machine. We'd like to be able to manually change all calculated sales data, but also the data needs to remain in a consistent state at all times. Oh and while you're there, we decided the commission calculations will use a different system from now on. We expect it to be online by the end of the week, thanks.
