Internal Server Error on Proceeding With Checkout With Deleted Order Info

[msaroshali]

Scenario:

• Customer begins the checkout process, adds all the information but does not complete the order checkout process.
• Customer deletes their order info for whatever reason.
• After deleting the information, Customer continues the checkout process and tries to place the order.

Customer is met with an internal server error page instead of the Order Overview Page, complaining about missing information required to create an order.

Possible Solutions:

• We create a filter that checks for the order info before proceeding to the Order Overview Page.
• We handle it in the checkout controller to throw a User Friendly error explaining why the order placement has failed.
• We disable Order info deletion while the checkout process is underway
• Update Order Status to Deleted and Clear Cart as soon as user deletes their payment info
