Rest Interface for CashPad

Introduction

The CashPad iPad and iPhone apps will register their orders with a central backend. For version 1 of the backend this will be a simple flow:

• CashPad will register orders locally within the app
• At some point in time a CashPad user wants to push the new orders to the backend
• The user presses the sync button
• All orders that have not been transferred before will be pushed to the server

The apps have a responsibility to flag already pushed orders locally within the sqlite datastore.
