Same file archived to PDC the same day cannot be destinguished

Opened this issue · 3 comments

As a production used,
I want the fetching of files from PDC to always fetch the latest one,
So that we do not fetch corrupted data.

Work impact

Answer the following questions:

  • Is there currently a workaround for this issue? If so, what is it?
    • Yes, when spotting the error manually fetching the file (complicated)
  • How much time would be saved by implementing this feature on a weekly basis?
    • 5 hours monthly (but from a CG veteran)
  • How many users are affected by this issue?
    • Production users
  • Are customers affected by this issue?
    • Yes, in the sense of longer delivery times for re-runs

Acceptance Criteria

  • When the same file has been archived multiple times the fetching always gets the latest version
