I might be mixing it up, but I thought --purge also dealt with dependencies. Is that right?

I practiced a similar question, and I believe --remove is for the program itself while --purge cleans up the config files.

Ah, I remember this from the Linux command line lessons. --remove only removes the package, while --purge removes the package and its configuration files. I've got this one.

Okay, I think I've got this. Based on the requirement to automatically post inventory-related documents, I'd go with "Shipment on Invoice" and "Document Default Line Type" as the two settings to use. That should ensure the inventory updates happen seamlessly with the sales transactions.

I'm feeling pretty good about this one. The key is understanding how the Price Rule and Lookup Object work together to determine the value applied to the Target Field.
