• Production
• Sandbox (Hedge's staging environment; carrier test systems only)

The portal’s business edit, open to connected apps and machine credentials (producer_email required for a machine credential). Any subset; omitted fields stay. The record is corrected, every market’s copy of the old value follows, and the markets re-prepare. A quoted market reads as a previous quote until you request it again.
