Create a purchase order

Creates a purchase order.

Each item in items[] requires price. Set finalize_immediately with location_id to receive all ordered quantities immediately — the location must be covered by the team’s plan or the request fails with 402. order_number may only contain letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores, and whitespace; auto-generated when omitted.

402The team is over its location plan limit — it has more locations than the current plan covers (for example, extra locations kept after a downgrade), so the finalize_immediately stock write is blocked.
