Order Lookup requires implementation from the solutions team to enable/customize the app functionality. Below are the steps to install the file collection service on a local device/server. 

Overview

The Message Transformer Windows Service is the client service that will run on the customer premise/infrastructure to read the files and load them into our middle-ware for review & transformation. It is best to install this service in on a device that will have access to these files.
