Extending Magento SOAP API
There are times when you need to add extra data to the methods exposed through the Magento SOAP API.
In order to do that you should NOT start fiddling around in Magento Core, as this will break your implementations the next time you update Magento.
What you should do is extend the models you need, and write your own implementations, that way when you update Magento all your code will still work.

Unlock used salesrules, coupons and giftcards on Magento orders
After using Magento for a while i’ve noticed that when discounts are applied to a order they are not released if the order never completes.
The problem with this is that if a customer has a giftcard and uses it on a order, and never completes the order the giftcard is not released. The customer then needs to contact customer care in order to get the card sorted out.
I searched the internet for a solution to this problem, but there was’nt much info about it so i set out to sort it out myself.
The solution is to extend the Mage_Sales_Model_Order core class. I’m not going to cover the basic of how to do that here, as there are many good tutorials covering that.
