I need to have the ability to dynamically control if an order should go through and get routed or not.

What function can I overwrite to reject an order being placed in Sierra?

What is submitting the order? Whatever is submitting the order needs to not submit it if it should not happen.

A human is submitting the order by clicking the Mouse on the dom.

I see your point of view, just don't press the button, but Sierra is missing a dynamic method of blocking orders.

Use cases: economic events, dynamic symbol limits.

I could do a workaround by placing (using dtc) real orders very far from the current price to not allow additional orders to be placed ( or the specific qty limit I need) but that is against the CME rulebook, to place orders that are not intended to be filled.

So is there a flag that could be set in Ascil or a function that could be overwritten/called?

We apologize for the delay. This had gotten overlooked. We are thinking about this.

The only thing we can think is perhaps, at the level of the chart or Trading DOM, that an order could be submitted as a Held order and then released through the Trade Orders window.

There is no way for ACSIL to intercept an order. That functionality does not exist and that is not something we would develop.
