 Upon confirmation of a P/O, the system stores its content in an XML file based on the PO.xsd schema. The name of the P/O file is derived from the account number of the client and the P/O number (a per-client serial number that starts at 1). For example, the the 3rd P/O of account number 1234B555, is: po1234B55503.xml. Since this is an XML file, it needs to be transformed to XHTML before the client can see it. Note that this use case does not involve authentication.

Then, upload the war file to ''http://red.cse.yorku.ca:4413'' using the manager's facility (password the same as your own tomcat). Your app will auto deploy. If it does not run properly then the likely cause is a hard-coded path. You can fix the problem and re-upload as many times as needed (before the deadline) but make sure you stop or undeploy your webapp before re-uploading. Please do not undeploy someone's else webapp!
 The report is meant to describe your execution of the project to someone who is familiar with the project, e.g. a fellow student who is also executing the same project and writing a similar report. Hence, the report should focus on your own experience and efforts, i.e. what you actually did, rather than on general description. It is expected to be very brief, to the point, and made up of //at most// ten pages of typed text and diagrams (excluding printouts and source listing). The report should include the following sections:
