Hi @engcom-backlog-nazar,

thanks for your feedback but unfortunately the fix you mentioned does not fix the problem described.
The custom options stored in the info_buyRequest as options object with it's corresponding ID but not - as it's done before the update - as textual key and value.

E.g. i have on in the the product_options field in sales_order_itemtable something like this:

{
    "info_buyRequest": {
        "uenc": "XXX",
        "product": "XXX",
        "serial_number": "XXX",
        "country": "AT",
        "max_qty": "1",
        "related_product": "",
        "qty": "1",
        "options": {
            "17": "XXX",
            "18": "AT"
        }
    },
    "options": [
        {
            "label": "Seriennummer",
            "value": "XXX",
            "print_value": "XXX",
            "option_id": "17",
            "option_type": "field",
            "option_value": "XXX",
            "custom_view": false
        },
        {
            "label": "Installationsland",
            "value": "AT",
            "print_value": "AT",
            "option_id": "18",
            "option_type": "field",
            "option_value": "AT",
            "custom_view": false
        }
    ]
}

After updating the order via the API the product_options field in sales_order_item is contains following:

{
    "info_buyRequest": {
        "qty": "1.0000",
        "options": {
            "17": "XXX",
            "18": "AT"
        }
    },
    "options": [
        {
            "label": "Seriennummer",
            "value": "XXX",
            "print_value": "XXX",
            "option_id": "17",
            "option_type": "field",
            "option_value": "XXX",
            "custom_view": false
        },
        {
            "label": "Installationsland",
            "value": "AT",
            "print_value": "AT",
            "option_id": "18",
            "option_type": "field",
            "option_value": "AT",
            "custom_view": false
        }
    ]
}

For us it is not an option to rely on the option IDs or the options array as for the same content (Serial / Installation Country) various IDs and labels in different languages exist.

So the issue in this case are the missing data in info_buyRequest:

"uenc": "XXX",
"product": "XXX",
"serial_number": "XXX",
"country": "AT",
"max_qty": "1",
"related_product": "",

After placing the order the data is stored on the item correctly - it's only missing after updating the order via API.

I hope it's more clear now.
Thank you in advance :)

Additionally maybe interesting is the fact, that this happens on virutal products!
As far as I've seen now, there's no ProductOptionProcessor for virtuals.
