Calling SAP Order Service from CloudCraze

During one of our recent projects, the customer requested that the check-out flow should call an external order service on SAP prior to saving the order to Cloudcraze.  If the call to the SAP Order API fails we want to show user errors and prevent the order from proceeding.
