Open Questions
Below is a list of questions to be addressed as a result of this requirements document:
| # | Question | Outcome | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Do we already support storing orders as files saved somewhere on the server? | ||
| 2 | Is there a need to make this more generic? For example, would we need the ability to store the file to natwork attached storage or Amazon S3 buckets? |
