Verify items conflicts in ordering

Items conflicts in ordering

This example goes over how to find items conflicts in ordering, e.g. antivirus Windows has a conflict with OS linux, https://sldn.softlayer.com/reference/datatypes/SoftLayer_Product_Item/#conflicts

        self.package_keyname = "DUAL_INTEL_XEON_PROCESSOR_SCALABLE_FAMILY_4_DRIVES"
        self.complex_type = 'SoftLayer_Container_Product_Order_Hardware_Server'

    def order(self, dc):
        order_svc = self.client['Product_Order']

            server_order = self.get_order(dc, order_items, extras, 1)
            order = order_svc.verifyOrder(server_order)
            # Uncomment next line for ordering
